Magma Red is a rare color on a R129 SL500. To find a Panorama Roof painted in 586 is going to be like winning the lottery for the bidder who is going to take this home. The Panorama Roof option was not ticked often when these cars were new.

With original paint, original glass, a paint correction, ceramic coating, and a Java vinyl interior that isn’t dirty or beat up makes this a part that is worth bidding on for any and all Magma R129 owners. There’s also the added benefit of this Panorama Roof adding literal thousands of dollars of value to your SL. Think of this as a savings account with interest…
