Exterior and Interior
The exterior styling of the 1973 Mercedes Benz 350SL was typical of the era, with a long hood and short rear deck, giving the car a sleek and sporty look. The car had a distinctive, angular grille that displayed a large Mercedes Benz emblem in the center. The 350SL had a low, wide stance with a long wheelbase and a sloping roofline that added to its sporty profile. This example sits in a classic red exterior paint complemented by chrome accents, a perfect mix between sporty and luxury. The car also has reportedly has a new set of shocks and brakes, a new thermostat, water pump, fuel pump, and fuel lines installed. The interior of the 1973 Mercedes Benz 350SL really captured the luxurious and comfortable side of the German automaker with a classic and timeless design. The car had a spacious cabin that could comfortably seat two passengers, with supportive bucket seats upholstered in high-quality tan leather. The dashboard was simple and elegant, with a clean layout and easy-to-read gauges and controls. The car featured power windows, power locks, and a modern air conditioning system which the current owner reports has been overhauled on this car.
Engine
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 350SL was equipped with an M116 3.5-liter V8 engine with Bosch Jetronic fuel injection, producing around 200 horsepower and 211 lb-ft of torque. This specific car features a 4-speed automatic transmission and had a top speed of around 130 mph (210 km/h) when new. We don't think you should try test it out; instead, enjoy its smooth cruising abilities.
