"Mercedes-Benz went a step further in 1992 with the introduction of the 600 SL. This was the first 12-cylinder to join the SL family, and with 394 hp (290 kW) and six-litre displacement it fulfilled the dreams of many car enthusiasts.
Like all Mercedes-Benz passenger cars, the SL models were given new model designations in June 1993. The letters representing the vehicle class were now placed first, so the 600 SL became the SL 600. The revolutionary innovation of 1995 was the Electronic Stability Program ESP®. This pioneering driving safety system, which reduced the risk of skidding in critical handing situations, was available as standard equipment in the SL 600 and as an option in the SL 500."

One of the first cars in the parade was this great looking Mercedes SL convertible from the sixties. The Mercedes-Benz SL Class, in either convertible or hardtop form, is still a popular car among American motorists.
The store in the background is the Hampton House furniture store, a local institution and one of those retail businesses that make Montclair Montclair.
The Mercedes-Benz 300SL was the first iteration of the SL-Class grand tourer convertibles and fastest production car of its day. Internally numbered W198, it was introduced in 1954 as a two-seat sports car with distinctive gull-wing doors and later offered as an open roadster.
Built by Daimler-Benz AG, the fuel-injected production model was based on the company's highly successful yet somewhat less powerful carbureted 1952 race car, the Mercedes-Benz 300SL (W194).

The 1989 Geneva Motor Show was marked by the presentation of the brand new version of the SL, dubbed the R129. This generation represented a real technological leap forward compared to the R107, with the introduction of advanced safety systems such as ESP and a retractable hardtop.
Our model was delivered on March 4, 1993, to its first owner, who lived in Paris’s 1st arrondissement. The color combination chosen is undoubtedly one of the most elegant, combining metallic brown (ref. 475O) with chocolate brown leather interior called “Brazil” (273A) and a chocolate brown soft top... The first owner didn’t stop there, as he also added the desirable option of a 5-speed automatic transmission, ASD, and two additional seats. The car remained with its first owner for over 28 years before joining one of France’s largest Mercedes-Benz collections, where it remains to this day. Remarkably, its odometer shows just under 8.400 km !
Today, the car is in near-new condition, both cosmetically and mechanically. Its paintwork is original (measurements available on request) and flawless, as is its upholstery, which is in excellent condition. Our test drive was a delight: the 6-cylinder engine offers excellent driving pleasure! Despite this, a routine service should be considered if the next owner wishes to take it back on the road! The R129 is one of the most legendary cars of the 1990s, and the majority have exceeded 100,000 km. This example is undoubtedly one of the lowest-mileage models and will be one of the centerpieces of tomorrow’s collections.

W121
Produced from 1953 to 1963, a total of 25.881 units were built. As early as 1953, development began on an open version of the 180 Ponton sedan. The 190 SL is therefore technically based on the so-called "Ponton Model". It was available only with a 1,9-litre 4 in-line petrol engine equipped with twin carburetors. It was introduced at roughly the same time as the 300 SL Gullwing. It shared some styling features and was intended to be an affordable version of the exclusive sports car. For this reason, Daimler-Benz described it in its brochures as a "touring car" rather than a sports car. In 1963, it was succeeded by the "Pagoda" (W113).
