Used 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class for Sale near Washington, DC

A car guys dream, loads of power plenty of mods available and a bulletproof engine (with proper maintenance). For the price you can’t beat it!

Performance.. needs more hp on the base model. its a heavy vehicle.. so the power to wt ration is mediocre at best. Appearance.. gorgeous, beautiful line.. Interior is fine.. its a convertible.. so the interior needs to be a bit more durable than what i would expect from a Coupe or a Sedan from Mercedes. Its wonderful to drive.. I love it.. the electronic throttle has a bit of lag between the time you punch your foot down. and the car responds.. about 1 sec or so... But then its is a Luxury sports car and not a Racing roadster. If you need a bit more punch to your drive to go up against the Rice burners.. then step up to the SL55 or SL65.. if you have the deep pockects of course

A nice cruiser. Absolutely love the hard convertible top. However, with the classic German (over)engineering, repairs can get expensive pretty quick.

I’ve previously owned two SL 500 convertibles prior to this purchase. I love the body style and performance and prefer the look of a hardtop convertible.

Outstanding. Bought certified pre-owned in January of '08 with 15k miles on it. Car now has 85k on it. I take good care of it, drive it hard and still look forward to getting in it every day. Handles great, extremely comfortable (I'm a big guy) and performance second to none I've driven. Have had cops stop me and say, "Well, you were speeding. I'll give you a warning. Just wanted to get a closer look at your car."
