This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, in all its Smoke Silver Metallic can be widely considered to be one of the best starter classic cars around. It’s perfect for those who want to experience pre-digital era motoring, for multiple reasons. You see, this car comes from the fine Mercedes-Benz R107 SL-Class, which ran between 1971 and 1989. Since it’s a later-model car, it’s got features such as a more modern interior, a 4-speed automatic gearbox and a 5.6-liter fuel-injected V8. Plus, this example from Clearfield, Pennsylvania also comes with its removable hardtop included with the sale, maintenance records, and one red key. Don’t worry about its 99,303 miles; that’s nothing for Mercedes-Benzes of this era.
Exterior and Interior
The timeless lines of the R107, paired with its sturdy engineering and solid mechanicals make cars like this 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL ideal even for daily use in 2026. Wearing a sleek coat of Smoke Silver Metallic and riding on a set of Gullideckel wheels, this is classic Mercedes-Benz right there. North American market cars like this one came with dual headlamps and elongated bumpers, but even those do little to detract from the car’s sheer beauty. Plus, you’ve got two cars in one with this machine! Pop on the detachable hardtop and you’ve got a proper, metal-roofed coupe to drive around in. Otherwise, remove it and keep it at home for a proper convertible experience. You’ll still have the use of a brown convertible soft top in case things get too warm or a bit drizzly. The brown leather interior of this 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL can accommodate two adults with ease. There’s a padded luggage area behind the seats, augmenting the car’s suitably spacious trunk. Since this is a later-model R107, it’s got the airbag-equipped steering wheel as well. Other key features include automatic climate control, a Sony radio with cassette tape player and CD changer control, power windows and a power antenna.
Engine
This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL packs a 5.6-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood. The unit uses Bosch KE-Jetronic CIS fuel injection to makea reported 227hp and 287lb-ft. It drives the rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic transmission. You’ve also got power-assisted disc brakes and power steering.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed era of the long-running R107 roadster, combining classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and open-top grand touring appeal. Showing approximately 90,617 miles, this example is finished in Astral Silver Metallic over Royal Blue leather and is equipped with both a Dark Blue convertible soft top and a removable body-color hardtop. Features such as 15-inch Gullideckel alloy wheels, automatic climate control, cruise control, power accessories, and period aftermarket equipment including a cellular car phone and Alpine audio head unit give this 560 SL a distinctive blend of factory luxury and late-1980s character.
Few grand tourers wear their age as gracefully as the 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL, and this example captures the R107 formula in one of its most desirable late-production forms. Showing approximately 39,199 miles, it pairs a Signal Red exterior with a Palomino leather interior and Dark Brown convertible soft top, giving it the quintessential color combination many enthusiasts associate with the era. As the flagship U.S.-market R107, the 560 SL blended V8 power, understated luxury, and timeless styling into a roadster that remains one of Mercedes-Benz’s most recognizable classics.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed chapter of the long-running R107 roadster, pairing classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and a luxury-focused driving experience. Showing 111,950 miles, this example is finished in Arctic White over Alpaca Gray leather with a black convertible soft top. Its specification includes automatic climate control, a folding front armrest, heat-insulating green glass, a heated rear window, and a Sony audio head unit. With its upright grille, long hood, compact two-seat cabin, and unmistakable R107 profile, the 560 SL remains one of the most recognizable Mercedes-Benz roadsters of its era.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 350 SL comes from the early years of the R107 generation, a period when Mercedes-Benz was still establishing the naming conventions that would define the model in the U.S. market. Showing approximately 106,842 miles, this example is finished in red over a Parchment interior and features both a removable hardtop and convertible soft top. One of the more interesting details is the 350 SL badging paired with the 4.5L V8 specification. Early U.S.-market R107s were sold with 350 SL badging despite using the larger 4.5L V8, before Mercedes-Benz transitioned the U.S. designation to 450 SL. That makes the badging part of the car’s period character rather than simply a mismatch.

Showing approximately 50,797 actual miles, this European-import example is finished in Tanzanite Blue Metallic over a reupholstered tan leather interior. Its 3.2L naturally aspirated M112 V6, 5-speed automatic, and 4WD preserve the classic G-Class mechanical character, while later OEM Mercedes-Benz body components, Bilstein shocks, modern lighting, upgraded audio, and smartphone connectivity make it considerably easier to enjoy today.
The 1964 Chevrolet Impala 4-Door Sedan captures the long, low, unmistakable style that made Chevrolet’s full-size cars such icons of the 1960s. Showing approximately 28,076 miles, this example combines a 327ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, while power steering and power brakes make it considerably easier to enjoy from behind the wheel. Finished in Red over a Black interior, it also benefits from tasteful modern upgrades including aftermarket coilover suspension and a Bluetooth-capable sound system, adding usability without taking away from the car’s classic character.
This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Restomod takes the unmistakable shape of Chevrolet’s second-generation F-body and gives it a much more aggressive enthusiast-focused personality.

Finished in Black with custom Purple & Red flame graphics, this Camaro also features a Hurst shifter, Grant GT steering wheel, aftermarket gauges, and a number of exterior and audio upgrades that give it a distinctly custom-built character.
