Rather than attempt to meet the race-bred performance and looks of the original 300 SL, Mercedes focused more on a grand touring, "personal luxury car" feel for their new SL. Over its production run, the car received a series of ever-larger V8s along with a series of Inline-6s. Any R107 is an exceptional machine, with a long list of amenities and remarkable performance. In comparison to the European cars, US-market R107s received extra smog equipment and a distinctive set of four sealed beam headlamps. For 1974, the front and rear bumpers were increased in size (by eight inches) to account for new NHTSA regulations. Regardless of locale, the R107 was an instant hit and featured in numerous television and film series, often as an indication of success. Recently, values of extremely well-kept R107 SLs have dramatically increased in value, with low-mileage examples naturally attracting the most interest. The spectacular 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL Roadster featured here is finished in stunning Champagne Metallic over a Dark Brown leather interior with a matching Brown folding convertible top and body-color removable factory hardtop. This particular example was sold new through Mervis Motors Inc. in Pittsburgh to a meticulous owner who cared for and only drove it sparingly from new until 2018. As you would expect from such mindful ownership, this SL presents in spectacular, well-preserved condition. As a 1980 model, this Mercedes represents the final year of 450 SL production and stands out with its distinctive color combination. As such, I personally believe this example is sure to yield tremendous investment potential for its next caretaker. We are proud to offer this exceptional Mercedes-Benz 450 SL to the most particular collector, investor, or enthusiast who appreciates its low mileage and timeless style.
