Very few success stories from the automotive arena come close to that of Mercedes and the legendary SL lineup of the Seventies and Eighties. It was not just a pretty convertible, it was the convertible to have, and while it was an expensive piece of machinery back in the day, it was sold by the droves. What made it all so popular was pure German engineering and a car that suited the market very well. People loved it to the point that the car sold over 250,000 units in its 18-year production run. Looking for a classic convertible and never figured out why the Mercedes-Benz SL from the 80s was so popular; well, here's your chance to own one. With a reported 17,750 miles on the clock, this 1987 Mercedes Benz 560SL Convertible is reported also to be a former museum vehicle and is in almost factory condition.
Exterior and Interior
With this 1987 Mercedes Benz 560SL Convertible, it's all about the details, the 80s saw changes to the car's design to keep buyers on their toes. With its silver exterior and all its exterior components in place, this is one neat example to look at when parked or to chug along on a Sunday drive. While this car's party piece is putting its roof down and enjoying every mile the owner reports that both the hard top and soft top will be included in the sale. The car rides on its factory Mercedes-Benz wheels which are also silver in color to match the exterior. This 1987 Mercedes Benz 560SL Convertible and its original gray interior are all about the details and the finer things. The grey seats are in factory condition due to the car's low mileage, and looking around, the car sports all its interior components from its wood inserts to all the technical gizmos Mercedes-Benz offered in the 80s; nothing is amiss.
Engine
With comfort and grand touring being its selling points, you can't find a better engine than the beating heart, the legendary 5.6L V8 engine present in this 1987 Mercedes Benz 560SL Convertible. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels smoothly and refinedly through the car's 4G-Tronic automatic gearbox.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed era of the long-running R107 roadster, combining classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and open-top grand touring appeal. Showing approximately 90,617 miles, this example is finished in Astral Silver Metallic over Royal Blue leather and is equipped with both a Dark Blue convertible soft top and a removable body-color hardtop. Features such as 15-inch Gullideckel alloy wheels, automatic climate control, cruise control, power accessories, and period aftermarket equipment including a cellular car phone and Alpine audio head unit give this 560 SL a distinctive blend of factory luxury and late-1980s character.
Few grand tourers wear their age as gracefully as the 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL, and this example captures the R107 formula in one of its most desirable late-production forms. Showing approximately 39,199 miles, it pairs a Signal Red exterior with a Palomino leather interior and Dark Brown convertible soft top, giving it the quintessential color combination many enthusiasts associate with the era. As the flagship U.S.-market R107, the 560 SL blended V8 power, understated luxury, and timeless styling into a roadster that remains one of Mercedes-Benz’s most recognizable classics.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed chapter of the long-running R107 roadster, pairing classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and a luxury-focused driving experience. Showing 111,950 miles, this example is finished in Arctic White over Alpaca Gray leather with a black convertible soft top. Its specification includes automatic climate control, a folding front armrest, heat-insulating green glass, a heated rear window, and a Sony audio head unit. With its upright grille, long hood, compact two-seat cabin, and unmistakable R107 profile, the 560 SL remains one of the most recognizable Mercedes-Benz roadsters of its era.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 350 SL comes from the early years of the R107 generation, a period when Mercedes-Benz was still establishing the naming conventions that would define the model in the U.S. market. Showing approximately 106,842 miles, this example is finished in red over a Parchment interior and features both a removable hardtop and convertible soft top. One of the more interesting details is the 350 SL badging paired with the 4.5L V8 specification. Early U.S.-market R107s were sold with 350 SL badging despite using the larger 4.5L V8, before Mercedes-Benz transitioned the U.S. designation to 450 SL. That makes the badging part of the car’s period character rather than simply a mismatch.

Its 3.2L naturally aspirated M112 V6, 5-speed automatic, and 4WD preserve the classic G-Class mechanical character, while later OEM Mercedes-Benz body components, Bilstein shocks, modern lighting, upgraded audio, and smartphone connectivity make it considerably easier to enjoy today.
