1966 Mercedes-Benz 230SL Pagoda | 4-Speed Manual | Collector-Grade Example

Few automobiles have achieved the timeless elegance, engineering excellence, and worldwide recognition of the legendary 1966 Mercedes-Benz 230SL Pagoda. Designed by Paul Bracq and widely regarded as one of the most beautiful Mercedes-Benz models ever produced, the W113 "Pagoda" combines sophisticated styling, advanced engineering, and exceptional drivability in a package that continues to appreciate among collectors worldwide.

Finished in a stunning Red exterior over a Tan interior, this highly desirable 230SL is powered by the original 2.3-liter M127 fuel-injected inline-six engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, offering a driving experience that is increasingly difficult to find in today's collector car market.

Key Features

  • Original 2.3L M127 Fuel-Injected Inline-Six

  • 4-Speed Manual Transmission

  • Rear-Wheel Drive

  • Factory Removable Hardtop Design (Pagoda Series)

  • Red Exterior Finish

  • Tan Interior

  • Chrome Brightwork Throughout

  • Mercedes-Benz Hubcaps with Whitewall Tires

  • Independent Suspension

  • Four-Wheel Disc Brakes

  • Classic Becker-Style Dashboard Layout

  • Collector-Grade W113 Chassis

Why It's Called the "Pagoda"

The W113 earned the nickname "Pagoda" from its distinctive removable hardtop, whose slightly concave roof design resembles the rooflines of traditional Asian pagodas. Today, the Pagoda is considered one of the most elegant and investment-worthy classic Mercedes-Benz models ever built.

Engineering Ahead of Its Time

When introduced, the 230SL represented the future of Mercedes-Benz sports cars. Equipped with Bosch mechanical fuel injection, four-wheel disc brakes, and advanced safety engineering developed by Mercedes-Benz, the 230SL was significantly more sophisticated than many of its contemporaries.

Its smooth inline-six engine delivers refined power while maintaining the reliability and durability that have made these cars legendary among collectors.

Collector Investment Potential

The W113 Pagoda market has remained one of the strongest segments in the classic Mercedes-Benz world. Enthusiasts and collectors continue to seek well-preserved examples due to their limited production, timeless design, and increasing international demand.

With its desirable color combination, manual transmission, and iconic styling, this 230SL represents an opportunity to own one of the most respected classic Mercedes-Benz roadsters ever produced.
