Perfect Auto Collection Signature Listing 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL VIN WDBBA48D6KA104878 | 13,966 miles The 560 SL closed out an eighteen-year production run by finally being the version everyone had been waiting for. Why We Acquired This Vehicle The R107-generation SL ran from 1971 to 1989 with a level of over-engineering few cars from any era can match, and the 560 SL was its final and most powerful expression before the model was replaced entirely. This example represents the last year that platform was ever built. This example distinguished itself through its specification - a build carrying both its factory removable hardtop and its original soft top, along with genuine period-correct detail that signals a car cared for with real intention, not simply left to sit. The verified appointments are detailed in full below. Finished in Black over a Red interior with 13,966 miles recorded, this is a 560 SL that presents in a classic, high-contrast specification.

We ask a more direct question: does it still drive and present the way a well-kept example from this era should, and would we be proud to place it in our own collection? Viewed through that lens, this 560 SL distinguished itself immediately. Its verified equipment is not filler; it reflects a car that has been maintained with real intention, both its hardtop and soft top present and its cabin still wearing its original color scheme. The result is characterful, mechanically honest, and unmistakably a product of its era. Why Enthusiasts Value This Model The R107 SL is remembered for a build quality that bordered on excessive, a car engineered with the assumption it would still be running decades later. The 560 SL, offered only in the platform's final years, paired that construction with the largest and most powerful engine the generation ever received. Enthusiasts are drawn to that combination of substance and simplicity - a naturally aspirated V8, a mechanically straightforward automatic transmission, and a removable hardtop and soft top both included, which was the intended way to own one of these cars. That is why verified equipment matters. It distinguishes this specific 560 SL from a generic description and gives a buyer a clear understanding of how it has been kept. Factory and Vehicle Highlights Body-Color Removable Hardtop This removable hardtop is finished to match the body color rather than left in a contrasting standard finish. Why it matters: Having the original hardtop present and finished correctly is a genuine marker of how completely a car like this has been kept, since hardtops are often separated from these cars over the decades. 15-Inch Gullideckel Alloy Wheels These are the factory Gullideckel wheels, nicknamed for their basket-weave design and closely associated with this generation of SL. Why it matters: They are the wheel most enthusiasts picture when they picture an R107, and having the correct originals still on the car keeps the presentation period-accurate. Dual Front Airbags Front airbags are fitted for both the driver and front passenger. Why it matters: Passenger-side airbags were not yet universal in 1989, so this is a genuine safety step above many cars of the same model year. Black Soft Top The original fabric soft top is present in black alongside the removable hardt&gt;
