The is rust free garage kept Texas car andis all original as far as Iknowand runs great and the a/c is fully functional and operates as it should. It has a aftermarket stereo with AM/FM/CD with remote and the power antenna operates as it should.This carhas the European headlights. All lights including the fog lights operate. Ithas a very smooth ride and gets a lot attention. The tires are almost new. It comes with the top stand and the tools to remove it. There is also a car cover in thetrunk.I was told that there is a new convertible top on the car. There are two small places where there are are no dings, just paint was scratched off. I have yet to remove the hard top to verify but the previous owner is very honest. It has the factory tool set and both owners manuals and a set of other manuals I purchased. I had the seat upholstery redone to a suede cloth because Texas heat is terrible on leather and is warmer to the touchin the winter. It is of high quality and has the same stitching pattern asof leather. The armrests and headrests are the original material. The car is being sold as is and will have no warranty. This is a collectible and I am selling it because I am not a foreign car person. I need no help selling this car. If purchased, the new owner will be totally responsible for transportation and all taxes. It has current Texas plates and inspection. I will post more pictures soon.

There are only 2itemswrong with the car that I know of..#1) the vacuum that operates the door locks is inconsistent. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. If you know Mercedes a lot of things rely upon vacuum and I have yet to trace the problem yet. #2) The cruise control actuator makes a lot of noise so I unplugged and will get a replacement before it sells.

Good luck to you!
