This 2005 Mercedes-Benz ML500 is a Special Edition example that remained registered in California with the original owner until 2024 and now has 34k miles. The truck is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 linked to a five-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case and is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic over Ash leather. Features include running boards, a glass sunroof, power rear-quarter windows, halogen headlights, 17″ thick-spoke wheels, heated power-adjustable front seats with position memory, folding second-row seats, navigation, a Bose sound system, a six-disc CD changer, cruise control, and automatic climate control. This W163 is now offered by the selling dealer at no reserve with the owner’s manual and a clean Florida title.

The exterior is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) and features running boards, smoked taillights, Special Edition badging, a chrome grille with a silver surround, and a power dome hood. Additional exterior details include halogen headlights, a glass sunroof, roof rails, and a rear wiper with a washer. A May 2023 entry in the Carfax report notes “minor damage” to the undercarriage, though no further details are available. The rear bumper cover is scratched. Paint meter readings are visible in the gallery below.

The 17″ thick-spoke wheels are mounted with General G Max tires. The truck has rack-and-pinion power steering and independent suspension with front torsion bars and progressive-rate rear coil springs. The anti-lock disc brakes feature electronic stability control and 4-ETS electronic traction control.

The cabin is finished in Ash leather on the seating surfaces while burl walnut trim accents the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Interior amenities include heated power-adjustable front sport seats, front-seat position memory, a split-folding rear bench that can be lowered for a flat 72.5″ cargo floor, power rear-quarter windows, a fold-down infotainment screen, navigation, a 150-watt six-speaker Bose sound system with a subwoofer, a six-disc CD changer, cruise control, and automatic climate control.

The steering wheel frames a 150-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 34k miles.

The 5.0-liter M113 V8 was factory rated at 288 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. The rear main seal was replaced, and an oil change was performed in February 2025.

Power is sent to all four wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The transmission fluid was changed in November 2024.
