This 2002 Mercedes-Benz SL600 Silver Arrow was first sold and
registered in Indiana where it remained with the first owner
through 2012. Subsequent registrations are noted in Texas through
2018. In 2023 the consignor acquired the SL with 5k miles shown.
Finished in Silver Arrow Metallic (777) over an Exclusive Black
Nappa Leather (511) interior, power is provided by a 6.0-liter M120
V12 engine paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. This
R129 is 1 of 100 V12-powered Silver Arrow editions produced.
Features include an electric folding soft-top, removable matching
Panoramic hardtop, Silver Arrow Exclusive wind deflector, Xenon
headlights, electrically adjustable and heated seats, and Silver
Arrow branded Attache with books, accessories, and window sticker.
Records included in the show recent work performed including a
complete top hydraulic rebuild, an oil service, A/C service, and
four new tires. This SL600 Silver Arrow now shows just over 5k
miles and is being offered by the selling dealer with all factory
accessories, two keys, a clean Carfax report, and a clean
California title.
The car is finished in Silver Arrow Metallic (777) with a matching
removable Panoramic hardtop and folding soft top. Recent service
includes a full rebuild of all top hydraulic cylinders and both
sunshades in the hardtop are operational. Additional exterior
features include Xenon headlamps, Silver Arrow-specific fender
badges and an AMG sport styling package which provides sculpted
bumpers, side skirts, and a chrome exhaust outlet. Photos of the
body are shown in the gallery indicating OEM glass and detailed
photos of each top are shown. The Carfax report lists no accidents
or damage since new and the seller reports no previous
paintwork.
Factory 18" Silver Arrow alloy wheels made by BBS are wrapped in
new Continental tires and measure 245/40 in the front and 275/35 in
the rear with 2022 date codes. The Silver Arrow editions feature
factory-drilled brake rotors and silver painted calipers.
The cabin is trimmed in Exclusive Black (511) Nappa leather across
the seats, door cards, head rests, shift knob, and steering wheel.
The seats show contrasting leather perforations and leather badging
embossed with the Silver Arrow logo. Black Birdseye Maple wood
accents adorn the door cards and center console. Additional
features include automatic climate control, power adjustable and
heated seats, and original silver leather trimmed floor mats.
Unique Silver Arrow features include a brushed aluminum instrument
cluster, aluminum trim on the shift gate and pedals, and Silver
Arrow door sills.
The Nappa leather and Black Birdseye Maple wood steering wheel
frames instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm
tachometer, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The
digital odometer shows 5k miles. The gauges are trimmed with chrome
rings and polished aluminum trim exclusive to the Silver Arrow.
The 6.0-liter M120 V12 engine was factory rated at 389 horsepower
and 420 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a
five-speed automatic transmission. Records included in the gallery
show recent work performed by the selling dealer including a
complete top hydraulic rebuild, an oil service, A/C service, and
four new tires.
The R129 is certainly poised as a proper modern classic especially
when you consider it's long tenure in the Mercedes lineup
throughout the 90's and early 2000's. Combining the sharp
Sacco-designed lines with the "Silver Arrow" nameplate and a
limited production run was a definitive recipe for success, but
moreover, designers found a way to bring the heritage and look of
the 1930's to the R129. The aluminum work surely stood out from the
pack considering the parts it replaced were primarily black plastic
and the paint, if you've ever seen it in person, is brighter than
any other silver Mercedes offered. Essentially, the Silver Arrow
found a way to bring the romance of the GT roadster full circle by
combining modern functionality and timeless craftsmanship. The low
mileage is collector-grade along with the entire car which has been
meticulously kept. The extra added benefit of recent maintenance
which most importantly includes a rebuild of all top hydraulic
cylinders is a premium value add.
