The most powerful version of the R107 SL-Class Roadster in the U.S. market, this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is equipped with a fuel-injected 5.5-liter V8 engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. It came factory-finished in Signal Red over Beige leather upholstery and features a limited-slip differential, four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, a removable painted hardtop, automatic climate control, and wood interior trim. Sold new and continuously serviced at a Mercedes-Benz dealer in San Luis Obispo, this one-owner 560SL is now being offered for auction out of California with approximately 12k miles on the odometer.
This R107 is finished in Signal Red (568) with a matching removable hardtop and a black convertible soft top. Equipment includes chrome bumpers and mirrors, a front air dam, quad headlamps, front fog lights, an automatic antenna, heat-insulated glass, a defroster for the hardtop rear window, a dual-tipped exhaust outlet, and silver 15" Gullideckel alloy wheels. The car rides on Pirelli P4 Persist tires date-coded from 2023. The seller describes the exterior to be in excellent overall condition apart from one small paint chip on the hood. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The cabin is appointed with Beige leather (275) upholstery, matching carpets, and wood trim on the dashboard and center console. Accessories include a four-spoke leather steering wheel with an airbag, a folding front armrest, automatic climate control, an anti-theft system, an outside temperature indicator, sun visor vanity mirrors, power windows, a power-adjustable passenger-side mirror, and an original Becker Grand Prix cassette radio. The seller reports all gauges and accessories are working properly apart from the clock.
Rated at 227 HP and 279 lb.-ft of torque, the fuel-injected 5.5-liter M117 V8 engine drives the rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes power steering, independent suspension, and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes. There are no outstanding maintenance items reported.
This sale will include the original window sticker, owner’s manuals, a toolkit, a spare tire, a hardtop stand and cover, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know “One-owner, garage kept, no accidents, like new condition. Original everything.”
