Default 1996 SLS Low Brake Pedal

I have a very low brake pedal on my 1996 SLS. The fluid was a little low and I topped it off with fluid this morning, however the pedal is still very low. It almost goes to the floor pan. Any input would be appreciated.

Have you checked under the car, any puddles? Was any service recently performed on the brakes? Improper bleeding = low pedal. Another possibility is an 11 year old master cylinder going weak. Does the car stop? Does the brake warning light come on?
