Mercedes-Benz has had a storied and very successful presence in North America. Particularly, the Mercedes-Benz W113 had massive success in North America with 40% of all sales being in the US which amounts to 19,440 units. Mercedes-Benz followed up with the Mercedes-Benz R107 and the C107. These sports cars were available from 1971 to 1989, and this series is known to be Mercedes-Benz's second-longest series produced by the automaker after the eponymous G-Class. In our listing is a 1977 Mercedes-Benz 450SL convertible, with just 43,400 miles on the clock and available to be seen in the Old Colony State, Massachusetts.
Exterior and Interior
Mercedes-Benz is known for making reliable and bullet-proof vehicles, this approach has not changed with this 1977 Mercedes-Benz 450SL, as the car seems like it was kept in a time capsule. The Seventies was a period where cars were increasingly available in colors that were not the norm, hence this Mercedes-Benz 450SL is painted in a Milan Brown metallic paint. It sits on a set of OEM Mercedes-Benz wheels painted in Milan Brown straight from the factory matching the body color. The convertible top is finished in a dark brown color, while a body-color hardtop is also available. The interior is furnished in a two-toned color with leather upholstery. The steering wheel is finished in contrasting black with the Mercedes-Benz logo prominently in the middle. The cluster gauge features the speedometer, RPM, and temperature. Incidentally, the Mercedes-Benz SL450 has a “Fasten Belts” light as well. it is reported that the A/C is the original factory fitted and functioning along with the factory radio/ cassette player. Furthermore, the owner reports that the car has been stored indoors to shield it from the elements.
Engine
When the Mercedes-Benz R107 and the C107 were released, they had a myriad of engine options ranging from a 2.8L I6 to the massive 5.6L V8. This 1977 Mercedes-Benz SL450 is powered by the 4.5L V8 and mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission. Power is rated at 190hp with 240 lb. ft of torque. Stopping power is courtesy of disc brakes all-around. a comfortable ride is assured by the double wishbone and coil spring suspension, making the SL450 a joy to drive.
The 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL represents one of the most iconic eras of Mercedes-Benz roadster design, combining timeless styling, V8 performance, and traditional German engineering. As part of the R107 SL generation, the 450 SL was designed as a luxury grand touring roadster, offering open-air driving enjoyment with the refinement and durability expected from Mercedes-Benz. Showing approximately 120,140 miles, this example is finished in the elegant combination of Light Ivory over a Palomino MB-Tex interior and features desirable equipment including a removable hardtop, dark brown folding soft top, alloy wheels, automatic climate control, and period-correct Becker audio. With its classic proportions, V8 power, and extensive comfort features, this 450 SL embodies the enduring appeal of Mercedes-Benz’s legendary SL lineup.
Introduced in 1971, the R107-generation Mercedes-Benz SL quickly earned a reputation as one of the finest grand touring roadsters of its era, blending timeless styling with exceptional build quality and everyday comfort. This 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL has traveled approximately 128,692 miles and presents as a classic open-top cruiser finished in elegant Manila Beige over a Bambus interior. Equipped with both a folding convertible soft top and a matching body-colored removable hard top, this SL is ready to be enjoyed year-round. Combining V8 power, effortless automatic transmission, and the unmistakable refinement Mercedes-Benz was known for during the 1970s, this 450 SL remains an icon for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL represents the beginning of the iconic R107 generation, a platform that would go on to define luxury roadsters for nearly two decades. Showing 27,315 miles, this example stands out with its striking Signal Red finish and classic Bamboo interior—an unmistakably period-correct combination. Known for its durability, smooth V8 power, and timeless styling, the 450 SL quickly became a symbol of success and refined motoring in the 1970s. With both a removable hardtop and a soft top, it offers year-round usability, making it as practical as it is collectible.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 350 SL comes from the early years of the R107 generation, a period when Mercedes-Benz was still establishing the naming conventions that would define the model in the U.S. market. Showing approximately 106,842 miles, this example is finished in red over a Parchment interior and features both a removable hardtop and convertible soft top. One of the more interesting details is the 350 SL badging paired with the 4.5L V8 specification. Early U.S.-market R107s were sold with 350 SL badging despite using the larger 4.5L V8, before Mercedes-Benz transitioned the U.S. designation to 450 SL. That makes the badging part of the car’s period character rather than simply a mismatch.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed era of the long-running R107 roadster, combining classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and open-top grand touring appeal. Showing approximately 90,617 miles, this example is finished in Astral Silver Metallic over Royal Blue leather and is equipped with both a Dark Blue convertible soft top and a removable body-color hardtop. Features such as 15-inch Gullideckel alloy wheels, automatic climate control, cruise control, power accessories, and period aftermarket equipment including a cellular car phone and Alpine audio head unit give this 560 SL a distinctive blend of factory luxury and late-1980s character.
This 1999 Mercedes-Benz G 320 is a particularly appealing short-wheelbase W463, combining the compact proportions enthusiasts seek with a thoughtful mix of original Mercedes-Benz hardware and later upgrades. Showing approximately 50,797 actual miles, this European-import example is finished in Tanzanite Blue Metallic over a reupholstered tan leather interior. Its 3.2L naturally aspirated M112 V6, 5-speed automatic, and 4WD preserve the classic G-Class mechanical character, while later OEM Mercedes-Benz body components, Bilstein shocks, modern lighting, upgraded audio, and smartphone connectivity make it considerably easier to enjoy today.
