THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this SL is in good 99.9% rust-free condition overall. I would call this car a presentable "ten-footer" overall deep lustrous shine from the gloss black paint. Upon closer inspection, the body shows various, nicks, faded sports, light scratches and scrapes and touched up spots along with some very light curb rash on one or more of the alloy wheels and other miscellaneous light cosmetic blemishes. While it recently was replaced new, he soft top is currently not raising due to a mechanical jam. The two side view mirrors are loose.

THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this car is in fairly good condition overall. The leather upholstery is newer, the a/c blows cold, all of the gauges, lights and blinkers work as do the electric windows. The stereo needs a code, one of the window switches has fallen into the console but still functions, the horn sounds weak, there is some general wear and tear on some of the interior trim bits.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1998 500SL starts well with strong running engine with great acceleration, good shifting transmission and solid braking and steering. The suspension components are a bit worn producing a bit of shimmy over 65 miles per hour. This is a still fun, fast and solid top down cruiser.
