1996 CL500

Nice low mileage one at Vintage Sales in Cincinnati, at a good price.
Vintage Sales Selected Car
You don't see these very often, and not in this condition.

You never know until you look at it in person, especially when you buy from those shady used car dealers. Who's crazy enough to do that sight unseen nowadays?

Most of the time when a seller says absolutely nothing is wrong, especially from a dealer, I find at least $2000 worth of stuff wrong with it.

Styling wise, nicest S Coupe MB has ever made, especially in black or midnight blue.

Yeah, and on a CL it doesn't take much to pass $2K!

I agree with all - a PPI would be in order, but these are hard to come by, so it might be worth a look.

PPI & this dealer

I totally agree a PPI would be necessary, especially on this model! However, this dealership is in my opinion not shady - have been there several times and have a friend that bought a 450SEL from this guy. When someone is selling a car I always assume they are hiding something or just unaware/not as picky as me - that way no surprises when I find something... He deals in cars that are usually on the up and up and usually vintage/unusual Benz cars with TONS of documentation... just my 2 cents check out his other cars and you will see what I am talking about - no affiliation
