For Sale: 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL in Lithia Springs, Georgia

This 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL was its manufacturer's coveted open-air sports car flagship during its era. Today it continues the same sense of respect now with an earned classic admiration. So you can enjoy the fuel-injected V8, both tops, loaded interior, and excellent color combo - all for a value price.

Just as is the case with so many movies and songs, this is a model that only gets better with time. This SL has an ageless appeal with its factory-correct white is looking sharp. It's the product of a high-quality respray later in life, and everything has been well-respected since then, right down to the blue pinstripe. There's a nice gloss that showcases the effortlessly elegant lines that taper to show off a sporty style. When darkening skies threaten, you'll have a couple of options for protection, including a blue folding top that looks smart with the blue pinstripe. You even get a color-matched hardtop if you want a coupe-like profile (it will need a latch serviced to be fully operational.) Overall, the bright bumpers, clean lights, smooth alloys, and tight lines are all part of the quality details that remind you that Mercedes knows how to build a car meant to last for generations.

Because the blue soft top looks so distinct against the white paint, you'll be happy to see that beneath it is a full blue interior. Just like the exterior, the inside of this Benz shows added care and respect so that it delivers a premium driver-ready car. Nice leather on the seats, plush carpeting, and attractive wood trim give you a proper luxury feeling. There are even nice upgrades like cup holders and an AM/FM/CD stereo. Plus, you have the best factory features with power windows, power steering, and cold-blowing air conditioning. And because this was one of the final years of its generation, you also got the best in safety with a driver's airbag, third brake lights, and anti-lock brakes.

Raise the hood and you'll find a well-maintained engine compartment with a fuel-injected 5.6-liter motor sitting at the center. It holds the distinction of being the top-tier engine option at the time of its release, and because Mercedes-Benz is ahead of its time, this V8 is still admired for its mix of power and poise. The powerplant pairs with a four-speed automatic transmission to give you smooth cruising all the way into overdrive. The fully-independent suspension, Michelin tires, and four-wheel power disc brakes make for a confident yet supple driving feeling.

This SL is power and comfort delivered in a true European grand touring package. So when it looks this good and is priced so nice, you know you can't miss this deal. Call today!!!
