2005 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Sport

This 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Sport is a well-documented example of the R230-generation SL, the grand touring roadster that carried Mercedes’ storied SL bloodline into the modern era. With 72,000 miles and a dealer-only service history from Fletcher Jones Mercedes-Benz, it offers the kind of clear, traceable record that discerning buyers look for. Fletcher Jones sold this car twice as a certified pre-owned vehicle, and the CarFax report and original window sticker are pictured in the photos. The complete transmission and torque converter were just replaced with all-new units, so the most significant drivetrain component is fresh. Add Sport Edition styling, heated and cooled massage seats, and a retractable hardtop, and you have an SL that runs excellently and is ready for open-road touring.
