1998 Mercedes SLK230 Kompressor - Rare Clean Classic - $16,500 (Tacoma, WA)

1998 Mercedes SLK230 - Rare Clean Classic 68,600 miles - 70k mile service was performed at 65k with complete inspection and clean bill of health from Mercedes-Benz of Lynnwood. HISTORY: Sold new at MB of Seattle and has remained local and dealer maintained its entire life. The car has been kept 100% unmodified, no smoking, no pets, no kids, no accidents, no stories. In October of 2024 I wasn’t looking to buy but ran across this awesome vehicle and acquired it due to its striking yellow color, condition and thorough maintenance. The owner said I was the perfect owner. I literally tried to talk him out of selling it because his heart and soul were in it but he was forced to downsize. I love the car and treat it like a trophy but don’t drive it enough to justify owning it so hopefully I will find the next perfect owner.
