I have a 95 SL600. Amazing car. A coupla years in there the German
gummint mandated biodegradable wiring insulation which causes untold
problems. Mine has that issue.... sigh... 99 was after that fiasco,
and the 500 is a solid engine, I don't think there are many problems
with it other than the occasional sensor and such, which are not hard to
fix. Wheels can be whatever you want, there are guys who like the
monoblocks which tend to be pricey, but there are lots of other choices,
the factory wheels don't look bad.
Poos has one about that vintage, he can speak to that particular engine
-- what I recall is that it has quite good performance.
If it is in good shape I wouldn't hesitate, depending of course on the
price. (Which, BTW, is what?)

Don't worry I don't want to buy one of these. But, a friend of mine is looking
at one. I think I remember some sort of huge problem with these. Like $2500
wheels (each)? Or some other very expensive problem with them. Should I tell
my friend to stay away?
