FOR SALE:
1995 MERCEDES BENZ SL600
PLEASE READ EVERYTHING:
I WILL DO MY BEST TO DESCRIBE THIS CAR FOR WHAT IT IS TODAY AND WHAT MY PLAN WAS.
THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE CAR. MB SL600 WERE BUILT FROM 1993-2002. TOTAL PRODUCTION WAS 11,086. IN 1995 TOTAL PRODUCTION WAS 1,112. 1995 TOURMALINE GREEN METALLIC(269U), I WOULD SAY NO MORE THAN 10%, WERE PRODUCED IN THIS COLOR. THEN ADD THE CAR WAS UPGRADED BY 2ND OWNER WITH “AMG AERO III” 17′ WHEELS. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY RARE AND EXPENSIVE OPTION IN 1995. REPRODUCTION ON EBAY COSTS $6,500 CURRENTLY. REAL DEAL AMG WOULD ASSUME WOULD BE MUCH MORE. WHICH IS WHY THIS CAR IS EXTREMELY RARE COMBINATION.
I PURCHASED THIS CAR END OF AUGUST 2023. I PURCHASED THIS CAR AS A PROJECT CAR AND PLANNED TO MAKE THE CAR PERFECT. I HAVE ANOTHER PROJECT I’M LOOKING AT, WHICH IS ONLY REASON I’M SELLING.
*TO BE CLEAR, THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES EXTREMELY WELL. NOTHING IS NEEDED MECHANICALLY AND YOU CAN DRIVE CAR AS IS*
WHAT MY PLAN WAS(TO MAKE CAR PERFECT):
-HANDLE MECHANICAL WORK. COMPLETED.
-REFINISH AMG AERO III WHEELS. NOT COMPLETED. $1,300-$1,500 TO HAVE THIS DONE.
-FIX FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACK. NOT COMPLETED.
-PASSENGER SEAT RE-COVERED. NOT COMPLETED.
-HAVE CAR COMPLETELY DETAILED INSIDE & OUTSIDE.
-REPLACE AFTERMARKET RADIO CAR CAME WITH AND INSTALL REPRODUCTION STOCK RADIO WITH BLUETOOTH. WHICH IS THE CORRECT RADIO THE CAR SHOULD HAVE. GIVES STOCK/OEM LOOK, WITH MODERN UPGRADE. I WILL PROVIDE THE BUYER WITH THE LINK TO PURCHASE THE RADIO.
*NOTHING ELSE IS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS CAR, WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER, PERFECT OR AS CLOSE TO PERFECT, AS CAN BE*
WHAT HAS BEEN COMPLETED:
MECHANICAL:
-When I purchased, I had the car flatbed directly to my mechanic.
-The car was sitting on front bumper cover. The front hydraulic suspension had the front end of car down. My mechanic removed & replaced ride height sensor links. You will see first 2 photos, how the car sits now. Perfect ride height. Bumper cover was put back in place. Issue fixed.
-The prior owner put the cheapest battery in the car, to get it running only. When you look at video, the video is from prior owner. You can see the ABS, hydraulic light indicators were on. My mechanic installed an OEM Mercedes battery. Which is correct battery for car. All dash lights are off.
-Left intake had a crack in it. New intake was installed..
-Exterior antenna seal was missing. New antenna seal was installed.
-New cabin air filter installed.
*I spent $900 on these repairs and receipt will be included with sale.*
*MOTOR IS STRONG. CAR DRIVES & RUNS WELL. SHIFTS SMOOTHLY. CAR HAS BEEN GONE THROUGH AND THERE ARE NO MECHANICAL ISSUES. THE VIDEO ATTACHED, PRIOR OWNER TOOK, YOU CAN HEAR MOTOR IDLING AND WHEN HE GIVES CAR GAS, YOU CAN HERE HOW STRONG V12 IS.*
WHAT NEEDS TO BE COMPLETED:
-SOFT TOP HYDRAULICS NEED TO BE REBUILT. THE COMPUTER AND SWITCHES WORK. TO REBUILD SOFT TOP HYDRAULICS & CENTER BLOCK & ROLL BAR HYDRAULIC COSTS APPROXIMATELY $3,500-$4,000. TOP WORKS MANUALLY JUST FINE, WITH NO ISSUE. I’M SELLING CAR “AS IS” AND IF I GET THE TOP FIXED, THE PRICE WILL GO UP.
-INTERIOR PASSENGER SEAT NEEDS TO BE RECOVERED. IF FIXED, PRICE WOULD GO UP.
-FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACK NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED. IF FIXED, PRICE WOULD GO UP.
-AMG AERO III 17′ THREE PIECE WHEELS. IF YOU WANT THEM PERFECT, YOU CAN GET THEM REFINISHED. THE RIMS HAVE NO ISSUES WITH CRACKS, BENDS, ETC. RIMS ARE FINE. I HAVEN’T EVEN TRIED TO CLEAN THEM UP. CAR WENT STRAIGHT TO MECHANIC, WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR, AND CAR IS THERE CURRENTLY. I HAVEN’T CLEANED/DETAILED THE CAR. STARTED WITH MECHANICAL. PRICE WOULD GO UP, IF REFINISHED.
STANDARD, OPTIONS, & INCLUDED INFO:

I KNOW WHAT I HAVE AND I KNOW WHAT THE CAR IS WORTH, CURRENT & COMPLETED. WITH COLOR AND OPTIONAL AMG AERO III WHEELS, THIS IS A VERY RARE COMBINATION. I’M WILLING TO NEGOTIATE SLIGHTLY AND FAIRLY, BASED ON A REAL CASH BUYER. SO AGAIN, DO NOT WASTE MY TIME WITH LOW BALL OFFERS. I WILL IGNORE YOU.
THIS CAR RUNS WELL, NEEDS A LITTLE, TO BE A GREAT, NEAR PERFECT CAR.
