The SL had a recent redesign, so I wouldn't think you'll be seeing much changing there, just the usual trim/wheel changes that Mercedes like to do.
Some people upgrade the cars every now and then to keep the 'look' current.

Why not get an S430? If it's a company car, then you don't really need the extra power of the S500. I'm sure the S430 would be under $100K after options.

If I wanted to know the difference in insurance, I'd ask my insurance agent. There is no way to answer such a question unless you know all the facts about the person to be insured.
