90' Mercedes Benz 500 SL


Owning a Mercedes SL gives a real driving enjoyment and pride of ownership.
When these cars were manufactured new, Mercedes-Benz adhered to construction
methods that resulted in a standard that was the envy of the automotive industry.
Every Mercedes-Benz model shared a build quality second to none.

After 18 years in its prior form, a new SL two-passenger roadster debuted for 1990, with
a choice of two engines. The 300SL used a 228-horsepower, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder.
A 5.0-liter V8, producing 322 horsepower, went into the 500SL. Each engine had dual-overhead
camshafts and a four-valve-per-cylinder configuration. Built on a new rear-wheel-drive
platform with a 99-inch wheelbase, the two-seater's body was 4.3 inches shorter overall
than its predecessor.

Both versions of Mercedes' luxury coupe/convertible came with a removable aluminum hardtop
as well as a power soft top. A five-speed manual transmission was standard in the 300SL,
with five-speed automatic optional. The 500SL came only with a four-speed automatic
transmission. Safety was a major design factor in the new convertibles. A rollover bar
was designed to flip into position between the seats when needed.

Rare, Luxurious 1990 Mercedes-Benz 500SL. This elegant vehicle comes fully equipped with a
5.0-liter V8 producing 322 horsepower and standard four-speed automatic transmission.
Inside a luxurious Grey full leather interior and polished wood accents complemented

Metallic
with a black cloth soft top and matching Silver Hardtop. The wheels are upgrated 17"
Lorinser and give this convertible a true sporty look and feel. This is a clean low kilometer,
just over 54,000 Km's example. A Luxury Roadster with smooth Aggressive Performance
and sleek Styling.

Mercedes-Benz Quality Second To None!
