What makes a European market Mercedes-Benz 500SL preferable to what was offered in the U.S.?
Per the seller: “The 500SL was unique to the European market, offering a more powerful engine and lighter construction than the heavier detuned 450SL built for the US market. Additionally, the trim European bumpers created a very sleek and elegant body design over the larger North American regulated heavy and protrude bumper design.”
This 500SL also shows just 66,000 miles and comes fitted with desirable options like a limited-slip differential, cruise control and air conditioning with automatic climate control.
Find this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SL available from Fantasy Junction through an upcoming Bring a Trailer auction.
