Background Story of this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

Overview of 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL For Sale by Owner

If you want to own a practical and regularly usable German classic, an example of the R107 series Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is a great choice. Produced from 1971 to 1989, later models of the series were much upgraded and updated over the earlier ones. Plus, with their legendary Mercedes-Benz build quality and reliability from the period, there’s little reason to fear a well-maintained example. This 81,476-mile 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL from Spring Hill, Florida is one prime example. It’s said to be an all-stock car, save for its aftermarket five-double spoke alloy wheels which are from Mercedes-Benz anyways, so you’re still in the family. Let’s find out a bit more about this car.

Exterior and Interior

Draped in gorgeous bright red, this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is a car for those who aren’t shy of attention. The car’s newer Mercedes-Benz silver alloy wheels add a further degree of interest, in the form of a retro-modern way. You can easily tell that this is a US-market car by way of its elongated safety bumpers and dual sealed beam headlamps, but these elements don’t really take away the overall charm of the R107’s design which was the work of Joseph Gallitzendörfer and Friedrich Geiger. Furthermore, this car comes with a color-matched removable hardtop, as well as a black convertible top, so it’s like having two cars in one package. A car cover is also included with the sale. The Saddle colored interior of this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL comes with comforts such as automatic climate control, power mirrors, power windows and a power radio antenna. The classic radio has been swapped out for a moder modern Kenwood single-DIN head unit with a CD player, a USB port and an AUX input. This is a very reasonable upgrade, as it broadens your choices of music, and we also see a set of new speakers installed within the rear cargo area behind the two seats. Since this is a later model R107, it’s also got the airbag-equipped steering wheel that came about in the Eighties.

Engine

A 5.6-liter naturally aspirated V8 powers this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, and it’s hooked up to a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive system. This makes for effortless performance in town and on the highway. Power steering and power disc brakes are standard as well.

Arguably the most popular Mercedes-Benz model in the United States during the Seventies and Eighties, The R107 era of their SL-Class grand tourer saw over 204,000 units find homes. This was during an 18-year production run that spanned 1971 to 1989. Impressive as the figure may be for a luxury car, it’s even more admirable when you consider that just over 300,000 were made in total! In fact, more R107 SLs found homes Stateside than they did in Germany or anywhere else in the world. Today, there’s no shortage of fine examples, thanks to the car’s superb Mercedes-Benz build quality.

Don’t worry about the 142,000 miles on the odometer, these cars are built to go the distance if maintained well.

In the Netflix film Glass Onion: Wake Up Dead Man from 2025, Daniel Craig’s character Benoit Blanc drives a classic Mercedes-Benz 560SL that appears to be a 1986 or 1987 model based on fan analysis. That alone should be enough to tell you why the R107 generation of SL-Class is still revered in 2025 and beyond. Produced between 1971 and 1989, over 300,000 were made and two thirds of that found their way to the United States. The car was a Hollywood favorite in its heyday, starring in countless films and TV series – one example is Knight Rider, where Devon Miles’s personal car is shown multiple times to be an R107-generation SL! Today, we have a 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL for sale from Bunnell with just 92,710 miles on the clock and you need not look far to discover why it’s a highly-demanded car.

2025 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$147,000

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is the most popular two-door luxury grand tourer in the brand’s hierarchy. It’s been around since the 1950s, and has always offered buyers the best blend of luxury, comfort and seamless long-distance cruising ability. With the latest R232 generation, the SL became a Mercedes-AMG product. It went back to being a 2+2 after a few generations of solely offering two seats, and swapped out the previous generation’s sophisticated but tricky to maintain folding metal roof for a more conventional multi-layer soft top. All that, plus some heady tech and performance gains are what you can expect with this 4,100-mile 2025 Mercedes-AMG SL55 from Eria, Colorado. This car packs a V8 with twin turbos, MANUFAKTUR Monza Grey Magno paint, 21-inch AMG 10-spoke Y-design wheels in black, the Driver Assistance Package, and so much more.
