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.

Mercedes-Benz has a fine array of grand tourers, but if you want a true-blue sports car with a star on its nose, the Mercedes-AMG GT is as fine as they come. Introduced in 2014, the AMG GT is now in its second generation of production. It’s a fearsome two-door fastback coupe with a twin-turbo V8 under its hood. Hence, it makes for a fine car to drive regularly, and we have a 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 55 for sale right now. This 3,000-mile machine comes with a 469 horsepower 4.0-liter V8, an AMG Speedshift MCT 9-speed automatic gearbox, all-wheel drive and a host of tech features. It’s currenrly available in Dallas.
If you want a German classic car with some modern conveniences, a V8 under the hood and a fine legacy, you can’t go amiss by choosing a Mercedes-Benz SL from the R107 era. Over 300,000 were made between 1971 and 1989, of which two thirds came to North America. The R107 redefined the term boulevard cruiser, with its performance, luxury interior and driving manners over long distances. If that sounds like your cup of tea, we have this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL for sale right now. It’s from Scottsdale, Arizona, and has covered just over 71,000 miles so far. It’s also got a smooth M177 5.6-liter V8 under the hood.
Formerly called the Mercedes-Benz ML-Class, the GLE represents the midsize sport utility offering from Mercedes-Benz, and has done so since 1997. Then, it was called the ML-Class and rode on a traditional, body on frame configuration. However, since 2005 and the second generation, a unibody construction was adopted, and the M-Class became more road-oriented. The GLE name came in 2015 when the third generation was facelifted, and basically alludes to the model being the SUV equivalent of an E-Class. Today, what we have is a fourth-generation example from the house of Mercedes-AMG. This 2022 Mercedes-AMG GLE53 has traveled just over 27,000 miles and comes with a twin-turbo straight six under the hood. It’s also got 4MATIC all-wheel drive and the usual Mercedes-Benz refinements to enjoy, in its quest to be your next family vehicle. If you’d like to answer its call, let us know.
In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.
