PPW Motorcars is pleased to offer this beautiful 1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SL, which was is equipped in the stunning and seldom seen Jet Black with a beautiful Black soft top over a powdery and supple Black Full Leather Interior with a factory Rear Seat and Seat Belts! Being one of 2,719 produced world-wide and one of the few in what is, in our opinion the most beautiful combination and that which best suits the car! This magnificent motorcar deserves to be seen and with the sporty and timeless color combination it will fit right in whether you are on the autobahn or cruising in the Hampton’s.
What makes this vehicle truly worth owning is the level of detail and hand assembled craftsmanship that is present in no automobile currently produced. This magnificent motorcar was produced in an era when owning a Mercedes-Benz meant something significant. There was no such thing as a $299 a month lease on a new C-Class; ownership was reserved for just a select few. With the factory window sticker showing an MSRP of $50,000 ($116,975 when adjusted for inflation) this vehicle was one of the most expensive and best overall vehicles available during its time. It combined the road holding ability of a sports car with the opulent appointments of the finest luxury cars and the power of an American muscle car. This was a vehicle for the most discerning individual to whom sacrificing any virtue of the vehicle for the sake of another was unacceptable.
This particular example has been ordered with every option available; fitted with ABS Brakes, Ice Cold Air Conditioning, Rear Factory Seats and Seat Belts, Heated Seats, Cruise Control, Power Windows, Hardtop, Full Leather Interior, Power Steering, Vacuum Euopean Headlights, and Original Becker Radio. We are proud to offer what we believe to be one of the finest examples of the coveted 107 Body Mercedes available today; this is an opportunity of a lifetime to own one of the best!
The 500SL is the best and most desirable iteration of the R107 body Mercedes-Benz. It encompasses the small European bumpers, European headlights, and other appointments that are reminiscent of the older models but has the highest horsepower engine of all SL’s from 1971-1989! This was the European hotrod every child or adult dreamed of driving on the autobahn. With less than a quarter of the production of the 450SL and 560SL, being a true European only vehicle, with its performance attributes, and exceptional price point this is easily the best value in all sports cars from the 80’s. This magnificent motorcar has since been meticulously maintained and driven sparingly. Of all the 100+ SL’s we have had, this is in the top 5 and whether you are looking at gorgeous original paint, the stunning interior, or unmolested undercarriage, this car delivers. Just looking in the engine bay, you can see many new components, all with the Mercedes part sticker still on them. To bring it to the next level we will be installed a new soft top, installed new tires, had the wheels powder coated, brand new bilstein shocks, lower control arm bushings, sway bar links, resealed steering box, A/C service and R134a conversion, valve cover gaskets, rear wheel bearings, rear parking brake shoes, oil and filter change, valve cover gaskets, coolant flush, power steering flush, brake fluid flush, and much more! That much more includes the 4 hot button items on any R107. It just received a new timing chain and tensioner, sub frame mounts, engine mounts, and steering knuckle. It is our opinion that there is not anything meaningful that could be done to make this vehicle any mechanically nicer. This service was done in house and a retail value of this would be in excess of $15,000! Priced aggressively and every bit as nice as the 500sl that sold on bring a trailer for $65,000 and with more service work. Offered for the true collector, investor, or enthusiast who understands and appreciates the investment potential of this extremely rare, low mile, top of the line, original Mercedes-Benz 500SL! Bid with confidence-you will not be disappointed in this truly amazing motorcar!
