The Mercedes-Benz 560 is a two-door luxury roadster that graced the roads from 1985 to 1989. Known for its impeccable build quality and reliability this car is like the fine of automobiles, getting better with age and making classic car enthusiasts swoon. (just like my wife)
One of the best things about the 560SL its mighty and silky-smooth engine. The 560SL boasts a 5.6-liter V8 engine that churns out227 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque. This beast is paired with a-speed transmission buttery-smooth and snappy shifts.
The 560SL is packed with luxury features that make driving it a blast (if you can fit). With leather seats that hug you like a bear, windows and locks that make you feel like royalty and a premium audio system that turns every ride into a concert, this car has it all. Plus, the interior is so well-designed and user-friendly that a (short) caveman could figure it out easy-to-use controls and cabin spacious enough to host a dance.
Besides its flashy and luxurious features, the 560SL is also famous for its durability and reliability. It’s built rock-solid and comes loaded with features that shield it from rust and corrosion like wearing a superhero cape.
As a result, many 560SLs are still in good condition today, and they are often sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
IN SHORT – Do not buy one of these if you are 6foot tall or above 🙂
