We are pleased to offer an optional low-cost warranty to our eBay customers. For an additional $180, you can get a 90 day, 3,000 mile powertrain warranty through ASC, a nationally recognized company.
Upgraded plans are also available.

The color is called "designo Silver", and it was available EXCLUSIVELY on the 2003 Launch Edition, as were the unique 18" rims.

The exterior is in excellent shape. The paint shines all around. Carfax shows no accident history, or any other problems.

You can see the Carfax at the end of the photo gallery.

Looks great from all angles, with the top up or down.

The interior is in remarkable condition for a 2003 model year car - no holes or tears in the Nappa leather seats, no stains, no odors, no burn marks.

Both front seats have power controls and memory settings. Both front seats are heated and ventilated AND they have the multi-contour controls with massage.

This Mercedes-Benz comes with power windows, locks and mirrors; remote entry. auto dual-zone climate control; power tilt and telescopic wheel, trip computer / driver info center;cruise control; auto headlamps, and more.

This car is very nice, but it is not new, and is not perfect. There is some subtle wrinkling of the leather on the dash on the passenger side, and the trim piece at the top of the shift knob is missing.

The automatic transmission also has a sequential manual shift mode.

This SL also has the ABC sport suspension, plus adjustable height.

The COMMAND "infotainment" center features a large screen that shows audio system settings and GPS Navigation maps and info, as well as system settings.

The audio system includes a CD changer.

The trunk is clean and roomy. there's plenty of space with the top up, and still some usable storage area with the top down.

The 5.0 liter V8 runs strong and melted-butter smooth. Its rated at 302 hp and 329 lb-ft of torque.

Carfax shows 28 service records

The tires have good tread all the way around.

This car has 51,982actual miles on it. It could be driven, so mileage might be a little higher by the time the auction is over.

If you'd like to inspect and test drive a vehicle, please call for an appointment. We do not keep regular office hours, and vehicles are locked indoors when we're not at the office.
