In 1986, Mercedes-Benz shipped its most powerful SL of the decade
to the U.S. in the 560SL. The car was also the heaviest of the
1971-89 R107 SLs that Mercedes produced, but the new 5.5-liter V-8
engine's 227 hp did a fine job of mitigating that fact. Top speed
was much improved (from 110 mph in the 380SL to 130 mph), and the
car was quicker from a standstill to 60 mph by about 4 full
seconds.
