1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL Navigation
This original 1988 model-year 560SL was completed at the Mercedes-Benz plant during the Spring of 1988 and sold new on July 18th, 1988 to its original Lake Forest, Illinois owner, by Knauz, the local Mercedes-Benz dealer. It is finished in its factory Signal Red exterior paint color with a fitted soft top and original tan interior. Additionally, it retains its factory hardtop, owner's manual, original keys, new car delivery tags, and a Mercedes-Benz first aid kit. The original Becker Grand Prix radio remains in situ, as do the original factory decals, ID plates, and markings. The odometer currently shows fewer than 17,300 miles.By Daniel Vaughan | Jul 2021
