2003 MERCEDES-BENZ SL 500
Technical Information
Offered here is a 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL 500 finished in sophisticated Desert Silver Metallic over a Java Nappa leather interior and showing 77,235 miles. Powered by Mercedes-Benz’s naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission, the R230 SL 500 combines effortless V8 performance, luxury, and open-top grand touring in one of Mercedes-Benz’s most recognizable modern roadsters.
The R230 generation represented a major evolution of the legendary SL, blending traditional Mercedes-Benz grand touring character with advanced technology and a power-retractable hardtop. At the touch of a button, the SL transforms from a refined coupe into an open-air roadster, giving it a level of versatility that remains one of the defining features of this generation.
Its naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 produces 302 horsepower and delivers the smooth, effortless power that made the SL 500 such an accomplished grand tourer. This example has been well cared for mechanically and received scheduled A and B services throughout its previous ownership.
This SL is generously equipped with the Premium Package and features heated and ventilated power seats with massage function, xenon headlights, navigation, premium audio, a power telescoping steering column, and 18-inch factory wheels.
The Java Nappa leather interior presents exceptionally well, with leather extending across the dashboard and door panels and creating the rich cabin environment expected from Mercedes-Benz’s flagship roadster. Desert Silver Metallic provides an elegant complement to the warm Java interior and highlights the clean, understated lines of the R230 body.
The car retains its original floor mats along with the factory tool kit, jack, compressor, two keys, and additional accessories and documentation. With its desirable color combination, naturally aspirated V8, retractable hardtop, extensive comfort equipment, and well-preserved presentation, this SL 500 offers an appealing opportunity to enjoy the performance and refinement of Mercedes-Benz flagship open-top motoring.
