1983 Mercedes-Benz 380SL For Sale Only 25,614 Miles! The SL Model Was A 2-seat Convertible/roadster With Both A Soft Top And A Removable Hardtop. The 380sl (R107 In Mercedes-speak) Took The Chassis Components Of The Mid-size Mercedes-benz W114 Model And Installed The Larger Engines From The Top-of- The-line S-class (W116), Which Produced Excellent Performance. The V8 Engines Were Re-tuned For Greater Efficiency And Consumed Less Fuel. This U.s. R107 Sports The Sleek European Headlights And Front And Rear Safety Bumpers With 8 Inches Of Rubber On Each End. The 380sl Most Closely Embodies The Original Concept Of The R107 Introduced In 1972 In Terms Of Engine Size And Weight, And Many Consider This The Best Balanced Model In The 17-year Model Run. It Benefits From The Several Significant Improvements Engineered Along The Way: Fuel Injection, 4-speed Transmission, Climate Control System, Higher Axle Ratios, Etc. This Particular Example Was A Play Car Of A Long Island Resident, And It Spent Its Entire Life Garaged, Away From Salt And Snow, And Received Only Light Summer Use. This Explains Its Entirely Rust-free, Astounding Condition And Extremely Low Mileage. It Is Finished In A Rarely Seen, But Striking Signal Red With Palamino Leather Interior. The Soft-top Is The Original Deluxe Hartz Cloth As Furnished By The Factory And Is Flawless, As Is The Matching Red Hardtop That Comes With The Car On Its Own Stand. The Interior Is Superb, With No Cracks On The Dash And No Visible Wear On The Leather Seats Or Door Panels. All Lights And Accessories Work Including The A/c. The Sound System Was Changed For A Modern MP3 Capable Am/fm/cd With Removable Boston Acoustics True Hi-fi Speakers In Addition To The In-dash Units. In Short, This May Well Be The Best Available Example Of A Mercedes Model That Has Begun To Appreciate Rapidly (As Recently Written Up By Hemmings Motor News And Hagerty), As The Newer Sls Have Been Relegated To Used Cars, And The Previous SLs Are Reaching Or Exceeding Six Figures In Value.
