In 1972, Mercedes-Benz debuted the W116 series of full-size luxury sedans. The W116 is the forefather of the Stuttgart automaker's renowned S-Class, and the series ran for eight years. The W116 would set a template that was followed for nearly three decades and continues to be revered. That's why this 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SE is not only a great classic but a landmark example of the finest automotive engineering. It's got 91,000 miles on the odometer and is up for sale. It would make a fine addition to any discerning collector's garage and can be driven daily if desired.
Wearing a clean white suit, this 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SE rolls on the iconic period-correct silver alloy wheels that were a signature Mercedes-Benz icon at the time. Take a closer look; you'll notice chrome accents on the bumpers, driving lamps hung below the front bumper, and twin, downward-angled exhaust tips at the rear. The W116 is a long car, measuring 205 inches for US-spec models, and it's got impressive road presence as a result. Step aboard the black interior, and you're instantly transported into Seventies Mercedes-Benz heaven, with a strip of wood across the dash. There's plush leather seating for up to five adults, a clear analog instrument cluster, and a decent array of creature comforts that were cutting-edge at the time. This includes climate control, power windows, and power mirrors, to name a few things. You'll also notice that the radio is a retro-styled modern unit that offers Bluetooth, USB, and AUX connectivity.
This 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SE comes with a 4.5-liter V8 that uses Bosch D-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection to pump out 190hp for US market cars. There's also 240lb-ft of torque on offer. As you may glean, this engine is not a high-rev screamer but a low-rev, torque-rich powerplant designed for effortless and reliable cruising. A three-speed automatic transmission sends drive to the rear wheels. Zero to sixty was timed at under nine seconds when new, with a claimed top speed of 130mph. Power-assisted disc brakes on all wheels ensured ample stopping power, given that the car weighs nearly 4,000 pounds unladen and can touch 5,000 pounds when five burly adults are aboard.

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail.

Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
