Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to present this beautifully refreshed 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, a timeless symbol of German engineering excellence that has undergone an extensive restoration within the last year. Finished in a crisp white exterior paired with a refined blue interior, this elegant roadster embodies the sophistication and build quality that defined Mercedes-Benz throughout the 1980s.

A professional 4-wheel alignment completes the restoration work, giving this 560SL exceptional road manners and a smooth, controlled driving experience.

Inside, the cabin maintains its classic appeal with plush blue leather seating that highlights the car's luxury pedigree. Comfort features such as air conditioning, power steering, power windows, and power locks make every journey enjoyable. The manual convertible top allows for easy open-air driving, while entertainment is provided through the factory-style AM/FM radio and cassette player, adding to the nostalgia of the experience.

Safety and style come together with power-assisted 4-wheel disc brakes with ABS, a driver airbag, and seatbelts, ensuring confidence on every outing.
