SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 1957 Mercedes-Benz 220S Cabriolet showing 84,857 kilometers (52,727 miles) on the odometer at the time of this cataloging. Finished in black over a red leather interior, this W180 Cabriolet is offered by Wild About Cars Garage with records and a clear title. 

Introduced in the mid-1950s as a lineup of full-sized luxury automobiles, the W180 lineup became known for its “Ponton” styling, unibody architecture, and class-leading premium materials. Coupes and Cabriolets, hand-finished at Sindelfingen, received enhanced details like authentic wood trim and rich leather interiors. When compared to the broader 180-chassis sedan series, the Cabriolets were considerably rarer; this example is said to be one of just 1,066 units produced for its year. 

This elegant black Cabriolet is described by the seller as “Pebble Beach lawn-ready.” It has reportedly been long-term enthusiast-owned, and as such, it demonstrates the premier quality and sound mechanical condition that one would expect. 

The 220S was a true personal luxury grand-tourer, boasting a 2.2-liter inline-six that could move the car with authority at highway speeds. This limited-production W180 Cabriolet is offered as a strong example of post-war German craftsmanship that will enjoy continued collectability.
