Mercedes SL 500
This is the big sister of the modest SL 350. With V8 engine, you can literally feel the power by just a little tickle on the accelerator. Although, it has a bigger engine, it is still economical compared to other V8 sports cars in the market. This is also the most popular of all Mercedes-Benz sports cars.
With a powerful engine you will really feel satisfied with its performance and grace as you stride the long, winding, asphalted road. If you have driven a 350 you can immediately know what their difference is when it comes to power and acceleration. With its 310bhp motor, it can run 62 miles per hour for just 5.9 seconds. And if you are looking for a race, SL 500 is your best friend. You can actually drive through the air with this car.
The first version of this car was sold on 1990 which has the highest price of all Mercedes-Benz versions and perhaps the most expensive sports car ever. That’s because it has a lot of features that you could never find in other sports car; it locks the door of the map pockets automatically, it has built-in memory for the rear view mirror and it has a remote control. Plus, if you are fat enough and cannot easily move out from the driver’s seat, don’t worry; the steering wheel will move itself away from your fat belly as you open the door.
It has three vents with rectangular slots in its two front fenders which is the distinguishing factor of the first version of the SL500. And if you are a mechanic and was able to pop the hood of an SL500, you can distinguish the very first version because it has 4-speed auto transmission but has ordinary hydraulics; it is a disadvantage in racing as you cannot really bring the car to really kick down even if it is already moving. It cannot beat the new version of SL 500

Year after year, a new version of SL 500 has been introduced to the world. In fact, it has been used in two popular movies; Another Stakeout starred by Richard Dreyfuss, Emilio Eschavez and Rosie O’donnell, and in the movie Ace Ventura: Pet Detective starred by comedian Jim Carrey. In both movies, the 1993 Mercedes-Benz SL 500 model was used.
Although, SL 500 cannot be a vintage as early as now, it is still one of the most expensive cars all over the world; of course, it is Mercedes-Benz!
Mercedes-Benz SL 500 has been produced new versions each year which no other cars can equal. They introduced every car in such a way that people can really trust. The name of the company has already reached its perfection when it comes to building high quality cars.
