1999 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL 500

1999 MERCEDES-BENZ SL500 | ONE OWNER | 59K MILES

This 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL500 is an exceptional example of the legendary R129 platform, offered in remarkable, pristine condition. Owned by the same owner since brand new, this SL500 shows just 59,000 original miles and reflects a level of care, preservation, and documentation that is increasingly difficult to find.

Always garage kept and meticulously maintained by an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership, this vehicle comes with complete service records, demonstrating consistent, professional care throughout its life. The outstanding condition is evident in every detail — from the exterior finish and interior presentation to the immaculate, rust-free undercarriage, a clear indicator of proper storage and responsible long-term ownership.

Powered by the renowned 5.0-liter V8, the SL500 delivers smooth, confident performance paired with the solid, over-engineered build quality that defined Mercedes-Benz during this era. The driving experience remains tight, refined, and composed, reinforcing the R129’s reputation for engineering excellence and durability.

Equipped with the desirable factory removable hardtop, this SL500 offers timeless coupe elegance, while the brand-new soft top allows for confident open-air touring. A Clean Carfax further supports the integrity and originality of this example.

As the R129 chassis continues to gain recognition for its build quality, mechanical integrity, and long-term collectibility, finding a true one-owner, low-mileage, fully documented SL500 in this level of condition has become increasingly rare.
