Today we bring you a Florida-based 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL500.


The car has new tires, new rear main seal, new pneumatic pump, new shift linkage, new infotainment console, new master battery, and more.

The paint is in good condition, except for some rock chips and the like, and the center console needs to be, in the seller's words, "recovered."

The mileage is 126,000 and the ask is $18,000.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

  • Wjtinfwb My local Ford dealer would be better served if the entire facility was AI. At least AI won't be openly hostile and confrontational to your basic requests when making or servicing you 50k plus investment and maybe would return a phone call or two.
  • Ras815 Tesla is going to make for one of those fantastic corporate case studies someday. They had it all, and all it took was an increasingly erratic CEO empowered to make a few terrible, unchallenged ideas to wreck it.
  • Dave Holzman Golden2husky remember you from well over decade ago in these comments. If I wanted to have a screen name that reflected my canine companionship, I'd be BorderCollie as of about five years go. Life is definitely better with dogs.
  • Dave Holzman You're right about that!
  • EBFlex It will have exactly zero effect
