Own a local classic – 1985 Mercedes 380SL – the epitome of 80’s and 90’s sports luxury – from features in movies like American Gigolo to TV’s Dallas – it defined sports luxury and grand touring- in its era.
Mr. Robert Goodson – an Opelika jewelry store owner – traded in his 1976 450SL for this 1985 model. It was kept garaged most of its life. I am the 3rd local owner since Mr. Goodson.
