Nothing but fun to drive and own, and best of all,looks like free to own also with resale values still bringing premiums.

It is the best car and the road. It is fun to drive. Great speed. We love the new look of the SL500 too.

I never expected to get another convertible - the hardtop won me over. The styling is almost universally praised. The engineering is most impressive - stability control, brakes, feel of the steering. But all in all, it is a beautifully styled and outfitted transport device for the new century. The downside is the overcharge for options - esp. phone. By why question the cost of a piece of art?

83 SD300 to an '89 911 to a '94STS to a '97 740iL to a 2000 S500 to a 2003 SL500...small to big,... fast to sluggish,.. I've owned them all. The absolute,overall favorite is the SL 500. Fast, sexy, comfortable, nimble, logical, fun, uncommon, and nearly as beautiful as the perfect woman. Curves in the right places, predictable attitude, a dream to be with, enviable from every angle, fast and precise with a full throttle voice to die for. A perfect specimen, especially when topless. Soft in the right places and graciously endowed with the right equipment. Push the right buttons and get ready for the ride of your life.
