HISTORY, WINDOW STICKERDEFINITIVE 1980s AUTOMOTIVE ICON Based on
the immensely successful 'R107' SL launched in 1971, the
Mercedes-Benz 380SL succeeded the 450SL/450SLC in 1981 for North
America. Powered by a 3.8-liter V-8 engine equipped with single
overhead camshafts per cylinder bank and Bosch fuel injection, the
380SL was re-equipped by September 1981 with a new all-aluminum
small-bore, long-stroke engine of equal displacement, delivering
significantly improved fuel economy with only a slight reduction in
power. High-speed performance was upheld with a numerically-lower
final-drive ratio. Produced through 1985, the 380SL garnered
positive, even glowing, road-test reviews throughout its production
run. Quite popular with the wealthiest and most demanding buyers,
the 380SL was a virtual fixture on the top-rated TV shows and
movies of the era.This 1982 Mercedez-Benz 380SL roadster is
resplendent in Astral Silver Metallic with a Black leather interior
featuring custom-made sheepskin seat covers. Both a Black soft top
and body-color auxiliary hardtop are included. Power is delivered
by a fuel-injected 3.8-liter V-8 engine, upgraded for compatibility
with ethanol-type fuels, mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission.
Features and options include cruise control, power steering and
brakes, central locking, electric windows and tinted glass, plus
Michelin radial tires and OEM light-alloy wheels. The removable
hardtop includes a rear-window defroster. Other highlights include
an AM/FM cassette stereo, height-adjustable antenna, 2-speed
windshield wipers with 5-second interval mist control, a
tachometer, Quartz chronometer, a folding center armrest, front
headrests, and adjustable front bucket seats. Exterior features
include a driver's side mirror, halogen headlights and fog lamps.
The trunk is carpeted in Slate Gray velour, color-coordinated with
the interior carpeting. A tool kit and documentation accompanies
this outstanding 380SL, including the original window sticker
showing a total delivered price of $42,912 new. Exhaustive service
history is also included. At the October 2008 AACA Eastern Fall
Meet in Hershey, PA, this Mercedes received a National Third Junior
Award, followed up in 2009 with the AACA National First Junior
Award. Experience this modern Mercedes-Benz classic for yourself by
