Doug's Take The R129 is a true modern classic Mercedes-Benz – and it's one of my all-time favorite SL models, as it boasts a wonderfully solid driving experience and handsome styling. These are known for their fantastic build quality, and this particular SL500 has some great benefits that set it apart – including extremely low mileage for one of these, at just 19,500 miles from new! This SL also touts a gorgeous set of Lorinser wheels, which is the only modification – and it comes with a factory color-matched hardtop.
