About this car
This 1988 560SL is offered on eBay by westcoastclassics in Torrance, CA. It is listed at auction: the current bid stood at $24,375 when the listing was collected on November 3, 2026, with bidding scheduled to end on November 6, 2026. The car is finished in Black over White, an automatic gearbox, power from a 5.6L Gas V8 engine. The odometer shows 88,288 miles. On an R107, check the front subframe mounts and the soft-top well for rust, and on the V8 cars the timing-chain guides.
What the photos show
- Dark grey paint looks deep and glossy in the showroom shots, no repaint needed on what is shown.
- Chrome wheels shine bright, no wheel refinishing bill is visible.
- Cream leather seats are heavily crazed and cracked on every cushion shown, so budget a re-dye at best and new covers at worst.
- Dash and wood look clean, so the seat leather is the main interior spend.
- Black soft top is shown up and taut, but its rear window looks wavy, so budget a window polish or replacement.
- No hardtop is shown in the sampled photos, so I can't judge whether one comes with the car — ask before valuing it in.
- No engine bay is shown in the sampled photos, so I can't judge the engine.
- No underside is shown in the sampled photos, so I can't judge rust underneath.
Money: At $24,375 the paint sells the car but the cracked cream leather is a real trim bill, so the ask is top money until that seat work is priced in.
