This nice Crème-colored 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is one of the best classic cars one can ask for, especially if you’re a newcomer to classic car collecting. It comes from the wildly popular R107 generation of Mercedes-Benz’s SL-Class luxury grand tourer. The R107 was made between 1971 and 1989, and of the 300,175 units produced, over 200,000 came to the United States! That alone shows how popular the car was, and if you watch a Seventies or Eighties (or even Nineties) movie or TV series, there’s a chance that an R107 will make an appearance on screen. With such star-studded endorsement, this 88,000-mile car from San Luis Obispo, California is a fine buy. It’s got a nice tan interior, a 5.6-liter V8 under the hood, and even includes the removable hardtop!
Exterior and Interior
What’s that we said? Removable hardtop? Yes, the R107 came with a detachable, body-colored hardtop! That’s why examples like this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL are perfect all-season cars that you can drive regardless of the time of year. In fact, with this car, you’re basically getting a full coupe, as well as a proper convertible all rolled into one stylish package. You can remove the detachable hardtop and leave it at home during Summertime. Then, you’ve still got a dark brown convertible soft top to deploy if the sun gets too hot. Since this car is an official North American import, it’s got the elongated safety bumpers and dual sealed-beam headlamps that European cars didn’t have. The tan interior of this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is a two-seat affair, with a padded luggage space behind, augmenting the car’s decently accommodating trunk. This configuration was another popular choice in North America. Most European market cars had a small set of rear seats, making the car a two plus two. This was offered for North America too, but few buyers went for it. Instead, they preferred the car’s fine long-distance cruising abilities and wanted more luggage space instead. The cabin is well equipped, with cruise control, climate control and even the original Becker Grand Prix radio!
