Used 2001 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Consumer Reviews
Driving a $90,000.00 Car!!!!
I paid $45,000.00 for 1999 Sport SL 500. The car is outstanding handles like a dream. Maybe in three years I can get 2003 SL500 for the same price? We shall see in 36 months.
Sl 500 with panoramic hard top
I've owned my 99' SL 500 sport model w/ panoramic hard top for over 16 years.I purchased it with 88k on it and now have 215k on it. Its been a exceptionally good vehicle with relatively low problems. Burns quart of oil about every 5k and has one small oil leak at the rear pinion seal. Strong as a bull still! Some parts are difficult to get at this point. Mercedes Benz stopped producing some replacement parts for the vehicle. As will happens with vehicles after 20 years. Some plastic pieces have failed, What vehicle doesn't experience this. Overall the vehicle still performs very well and turns heads .I've always ran Michelin sport tires to give it exceptionally good road grip.99' up to 02' 129 chassis vehicles were exceptionally dependable vehicles!

Amazing
Amazing car all around...perfect mix of performance, comfort, convenience and luxury. Drives like no other car, with endless smooth V12 power on tap right under your right foot. Truly an amazing thoroughbred.
SL600 Finest car every built. Period
It's sad some owners of newer SL's don't understand the true brilliance and build quality of a vehicle that was a true bargain for $142,000.00 in model year 2000. Unquestionably the finest road car in automotive history. Loaded SL600.
Good Overall Vehicle!!!
I purchased my 2000 SL500 as a "date" car. Yes, i'm single and this has been the perfect car to use on the weekends. I have also taken it on a few long distances trips, too. It has never missed a beat and owns a soft spot in my heart!!!!! I did sell the car in 2018 due to it sitting while I traveled for work. I felt that it should be driven by someone instead of sitting in my garage. I sold it to a friend and see it occasionally when we get together for lunch.
