Today's Nice Price or No Dice features a 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL, an R107 model known for its long production run and increasing collectibility. This example boasts the largest V8 engine available in the series and presents in a classic white over blue interior.
The seller's ad claims a clean title, passed smog check, and 136,000 miles, but contains some puzzling discrepancies regarding its specification and interior description. Photos show a generally tidy car with the factory hardtop, though the seller notes minor cosmetic flaws and rust spots.
Values for well-kept R107 models have been rising. The $9,900 asking price reflects this trend, being several thousand dollars higher than pre-pandemic levels. The question for potential buyers is whether this specific car, with its noted imperfections and curious ad details, justifies that premium in today's classic car market.
