Like most Mercedes-Benz cars, the timeless SL series is known for retaining its value as soon as it rolled off the showroom floor. In contrast to the mass production of most cars during its era, the number of SLs manufactured was very small. Only 23,742 units were built from 1968 through 1971, with roughly half of this figure sold in the United States, making this 280SL a rare collectible. It famously used the same double A-frame suspension proven years ago on the legendary 300 SL. This Mercedes-Benz 280SL has been kept by the second owner from 1973 to the present and is reported to have been serviced on time throughout that period. With just 119,000 miles on the clock, this 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL awaits your ownership in Washington.
Dressed in a resplendent red coat of paint that has been newly applied, this 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL's exterior exudes timeless elegance. The hood, door skins, and trunk lid are all made of aluminum to reduce weight, deriving its name SL from “Sehr Licht” (very light in German). Chrome accents adorn its silhouette, from the bumpers and door handles to the side mirrors and grille, accentuating the classic Mercedes-Benz SL lines. The prominent three-pointed star in its grill pays homage to the iconic 300SL too. The optional removable hardtop’s distinctive slightly concave roof, reminiscent of a pagoda, is included with a new black soft top to replace it. Step inside into the past of luxurious interiors, as this 280SL has been flawlessly restored to pristine condition. The black cabin with a white headliner harmoniously blends with the wooden trim, extending from the top of the dash to the console tray. Mercedes-Benz also included a tachometer and three-point seat belts, which were offered as standard.
Powering the 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is its original 2.8L straight-six engine, a marvel of engineering boasting Bosch mechanical fuel injection and a single overhead camshaft. Paired with the original 4-speed manual transmission, this Mercedes-Benz 280SL produced 160 horsepower and 193 lb-ft of torque when new, making it a treat to take on the twisty mountain roads. Four-wheel power disc brakes were also offered as standard in 1968 ensuring this classic luxury sports car confident stopping power.

The R107 era from Mercedes-Benz’s popular SL-Class lineup is a popular classic for many. It’s perfect as your first introduction to classic cars, as well as a fine addition for seasoned collectors to make to their collections. During the model’s 18-year production run, Mercedes-Benz continually updated and enhanced it. The car also gained a formidable reputation for its luxury and refined long-distance cruising abilities. Today’s 1980 Mercedes-Benz 280SL comes to you from Seattle, and has driven over 185,000 miles so far. However, you can see by the condition of the car that these machines were built to travel. With the requisite maintenance performed in a timely manner, there’s no reason why this car couldn’t outlive its owner!


The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class legacy began in 1954, with the gorgeous 300SL Gullwing. Its breathtaking lines and exciting performance made it a real treat to behold. Mercedes-Benz followed up in 1963 with the W113, also known as the Pagoda due to its roof shape in hardtop form. This particular 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is a convertible, however it does come with a nice little surprise too. It’s also a Euro-Spec version that was repainted around a decade ago. With about 60,000 miles to its name, this car is a great German classic for you to pick up and turn heads wherever you choose to take it. Because let’s face it, who doesn’t like a classic Mercedes-Benz? It’s the epitome of taste, after all.


We've come a very long way since the 1960s, and so has the Mercedes Benz SL lineup. The modern Mercedes SL has air-conditioned seats, radar-guided cruise control, and a top speed of a couple of hundred miles an hour — all the stuff you need. But in terms of style, it's hard to beat the classic designs, such as our featured car. If you’re a classic car lover, you might look at everybody else going around in their air-conditioned euro boxes and just feel better off with a rolling piece of art that whispers stories of the past. For you, this 1980 Mercedes Benz 280SL Convertible from Virginia will suit you perfectly. It is reportedly imported from Europe and has 108,350 miles on it.



Mercedes-AMG’s GLE 63 S Coupe represents the brand’s formula of combining super-SUV performance with long-distance luxury, wrapping a brutally capable hand-built V8 drivetrain inside a dramatic coupe-SUV silhouette. By 2025, this platform had matured into one of the most complete performance SUVs on the market, offering genuinely exotic-car-rivaling acceleration while remaining practical enough for daily use. This particular 2025 Mercedes-Benz AMG GLE 63 S 4MATIC+ Coupe shows approximately 16,737 miles and stands out thanks to a highly desirable specification that blends elegant Cirrus Silver Metallic paint with the rich AMG Macchiato Beige/Black Exclusive Nappa leather cabin. Add in full-body satin PPF, ceramic coating, and premium Larte Design carbon fiber enhancements, and this example presents as a carefully curated enthusiast-owned build rather than a standard showroom configuration.


Mercedes-AMG created the GT lineup to serve as a true standalone performance halo car, blending race-inspired engineering with unmistakable grand touring character. Positioned between the standard AMG GT and the range-topping GT R, the GT C introduced wider bodywork, rear-wheel steering technology, and significantly enhanced performance dynamics derived from AMG’s motorsport experience. This 2018 Mercedes-AMG GT C shows approximately 19,277 miles and is finished in striking Magnetite Black Metallic over an AMG Classic Red and Black Exclusive Nappa Leather interior. Equipped with desirable factory options including the AMG Carbon Ceramic Braking System, AMG Night styling packages, and AMG Matte Carbon Fiber trim, this GT C delivers an aggressive yet sophisticated specification. Combining open-air driving with thunderous V8 performance, this AMG roadster offers a visceral experience that perfectly captures the spirit of modern AMG engineering.


The 2020 Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Sedan represents one of the last great compact super sedans powered by a handcrafted V8, combining everyday usability with explosive performance. With 48,214 miles, this example offers a compelling balance of value and capability, delivering the raw character AMG is known for in a refined package. The “S” designation brings increased performance over the standard C 63, along with enhanced driving dynamics that make it a true enthusiast’s machine. Finished in Polar White over a Black Nappa Leather interior, this sedan blends understated luxury with aggressive performance credentials.



The 1967 Chevrolet Impala represented the final year of one of Chevrolet’s most elegant full-size body styles of the decade, combining sweeping proportions with unmistakable American V8 presence. By this point, the Impala had firmly established itself as one of America’s most popular full-size cars, available in everything from comfortable family cruisers to big-block-powered boulevard bruisers. This 1967 Chevrolet Impala Convertible shows approximately 35,353 miles and presents as a beautifully configured open-top cruiser, finished in striking Bolero Red over a Parchment interior with a matching convertible top. With big-block power, upgraded drivability features, and timeless styling, this Impala offers the kind of classic American motoring experience that remains endlessly appealing.


This 1995 Ford Mustang GT Convertible is what happens when a clean SN95 cruiser is transformed into a genuinely serious street machine. While the chassis shows 99,658 miles, the seller reports that the heavily upgraded drivetrain is substantially fresher, with approximately 2,000 miles on the built 347 stroker V8 and fewer than 750 miles on the professionally built transmission. Finished in factory-correct Laser Red Metallic over Saddle with a matching Saddle soft top, this Mustang retains classic mid-1990s convertible charm while packing performance figures that would embarrass many modern muscle cars. With a dyno-reported output of over 450 horsepower at the wheels and more than 510 lb-ft of torque, this is not a casual bolt-on build—it’s a purposefully assembled forced-induction street car for enthusiasts who appreciate old-school supercharged V8 brutality.


The 1965 Ford Mustang GT helped ignite America’s pony car revolution and quickly became one of the most influential performance cars of the 1960s. Combining sporty styling, compact dimensions, and V8 power at an attainable price point, the Mustang transformed Ford’s image overnight and created an entirely new segment in the automotive world. Showing just 18,813 miles, this example is finished in elegant Vintage Burgundy over a black interior and equipped with the highly desirable GT package, complete with a 289ci V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. With its timeless proportions, unmistakable styling cues, and engaging analog driving experience, this first-generation Mustang GT represents the pure essence of mid-1960s American performance motoring.
