The Eighties was a complete change up for the automotive world. Technology now played a big part, and there was no going back. You needed this tech to go alongside the Synthwave pumping on your stereo. While everything was changing, Mercedes-Benz and their SL lineup didn't. The lineup was so iconic that it didn't need a revamp. The C107 generation roadster was the stuff of legends and would just require some minor upgrades in terms of luxury to keep things interesting; after all, did you enjoy the Eighties without your stereo on full send? With a production run that spanned 18 years and the second longest-running single series produced by Mercedes-Benz, owning one is truly a treat. Why not drive off into the sunset with this lovely 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster we have today. With 106,000 miles reported on the clock, this is Mercedes-Benz that has aged superbly.
Exterior and Interior
With its iconic roadster styling, the red exterior on this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster sure looks just right. The car looks all original, with even the original US spec bumpers being in excellent condition. The manual soft top reportedly functions well with the hardtop also included in the sale. You also get the original tool kit and the first aid kit in the rear, which is reported to be original but not confirmed. The car rides on its factory silver wheels, to sum up all this originality. A lovely Sunday cruise calls for a comfortable interior; the tan interior on this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster sure does the trick. The leather seats are in excellent condition with the car interior components present and in great shape.
Engine
With eight engine trims to pick from to suit customers on multiple price points and segments, this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster sports the tastiest offering. Powering this legend is a 5.6 L V8. The engine was geared to provide a smooth drive feel and therefore pushed out 227hp when new. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission. Some maintenance has been done to the car to ensure it runs right; the car has reportedly seen a recent oil change, a new battery was replaced during 2021, and a new radiator was replaced before the current owner purchased the car. The engine bay has also been cleaned to showcase the car's originality.
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.

This 1999 Mercedes-Benz G 320 is a particularly appealing short-wheelbase W463, combining the compact proportions enthusiasts seek with a thoughtful mix of original Mercedes-Benz hardware and later upgrades. Showing approximately 50,797 actual miles, this European-import example is finished in Tanzanite Blue Metallic over a reupholstered tan leather interior. 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.
