Vehicle Description
It's time to look retro, sophisticated, cool, and unique - all for
a value price. This 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is a powerful and
beautiful drop-top that will get your attention immediately upon
arrival.
The factory-correct white is great to have on an SL like this. It's
a timelessly tasteful color, and so it's perpetually vintage
without anyone ever really knowing its age. And that upper-class
classic feeling is only heightened by a high-quality respray that
really lets this one radiate in the sunlight. Precision fit panels,
shiny chrome bumpers, clean rubber trim, and iconic baroque wheels
show off a well-respected car that revels in German build quality.
The color-matched hardtop gives you a coupe-like appearance.
There's also a black folding roof. It has a stock appearance, and
so it fits snugly when you want a tasteful contrast to the
black.
Of course, the best way to go is with no roof at all, because the
red interior looks chic against the timeless exterior white. And
this full color package actually shows off how thoughtfully done
this convertible is. For example, there's both a red and black
pinstripe on the exterior so it coordinates with both the folding
roof and the interior. And Mercedes built these R107 cars with an
elegant storage well for the top, so this one has the clean lines
of a roadster when open to the world. While the odometer is
believed to reflect the full actual mileage, the bright condition
of this full red package really shows a history of proper care and
investment. It's the kind of robust style that's a cornerstone of
the Mercedes-Benz reputation. This is built with great features
like comfortable bucket seats, a movable armrest, power windows,
cruise control, and cold R134a air conditioning. And the radio has
been upgraded to an AM/FM/CD stereo with Bluetooth. So you can play
your favorite music on your long top-down drives.
The engine bay has the correct and robust 4.5-liter SOHC motor with
Bosch fuel injection. We love these for smoothness and torque, and
this one fires up with the eagerness that tells us it's ready to
hit the road. You'll love how this is comfortable and nimble. It
includes power steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, and
four-wheel power disc brakes for the best all-around control.
Complete with owner's manual, this is the bold, sophisticated,
loaded, and all-around attractive Benz. So don't miss this SL, call
today!!!
