Background Story of this 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

Overview of 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL For Sale by Owner

Mercedes-Benz's SL-Class line-up has been around since 1954. Representing the pinnacle of Grand Touring, these two-door automobiles have signified presence and class since their inception. They've been the default choice of the rich and famous, and older models have matured into excellent classic cars for anyone to enjoy. This 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is from the R107 generation and comes to you with a light 54,000 miles on the clock. The current owner says that it's an all-original car that's been garage-kept.

Exterior and Interior

The silver paint job worn by this 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is claimed to be the original paintwork that this car will have received when it left the Mercedes-Benz factory gates way back in 1978. We must say that it appears to have been looked after extremely well. Furthermore, you've got the dark blue soft convertible top, as well as the color-matched hardtop included with the sale. That's one of the R107's best features. You get two cars in one. Choose the convertible top for fine-weather days or button up with the hardtop when things are less pleasant outside. The interior of this 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL presents itself in blue and includes plenty of period wood trim on the dashboard and door cards. We see that this car bears the desirable climate control option and includes air conditioning as well. There's a JVC radio cassette installed in the dash, which likely isn't the car's original radio, given that these Mercedes-Benz models came with Becker radios from the factory. The car also has power windows, power mirrors, and cruise control.

Engine

The powerplant that motivates this 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is a 4.5L V8. Developing 180hp and 220lb-ft, it provides a pleasing performance that matches the car's cruising character. A three-speed automatic transmission seamlessly shifts gears and drives the rear wheels. We're told that the car has received an oil change. Power-assisted steering and power disc brakes on all four wheels ensure an easy driving experience, while the 90L fuel tank provides plenty of range for long trips. After all, this car is meant to eat up highway miles with ease and get you to your destination with minimal fuss.

1976 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$34,999
SOLD

Now here’s a classic car that’s perfectly representative of what the cream of the crop were driving around in the Seventies and Eighties. This 1976 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is part of the R107 series of the popular SL-Class from Mercedes-Benz. Made between 1971 and 1989, the R107 became a firm favorite with those who could afford it and demanded signature Mercedes-Benz luxury in a two-door, grand-tourer body. It posed significant threats to models from established American luxury automakers as a result. Of the over 300,000 examples made, over two thirds came to North America! Yes, the R107 was immensely popular, which is why you should seriously check out this Jacksonville-based car. And if you need more convincing, it’s got a super low 28,507 miles on the clock!

1976 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$16,999
SOLD

In 1971, Mercedes-Benz revealed the R107 generation of their popular SL-Class luxury grand tourer. It took over from the W113 ‘Pagoda’ which defined Sixties Mercedes-Benz two-door cars in Europe and North America. The R107 brought new design, updated engineering, and a removable hardtop as key features. It would be made until 1989, with 300,175 units produced during this time. Interestingly, over 204,000 of those units came to the United States, representing a 68% share of total production! Now, you can still find many of these cars running happily, because they were built during a time when planned obsolescence wasn’t even conceived of. That’s why they are the perfect starter classic, even for a younger person. Today’s 1976 Mercedes-Benz 450SL comes from Boulder and has a low 31,000 miles on the clock. With its 4.5-liter fuel-injected V8 and 3-speed automatic gearbox it’s already ticking the right boxes for a classic car. Add the Becker Mexico cassette stereo into the mix, and you’ve got a winner!

1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$14,900
SOLD

In the late Sixties, Mercedes-Benz knew that it was time to replace their iconic W114 line-up of grand touring coupes. Development started on a successor, and by 1971, the R107 and C107 generation was released. It bore the name SL, and in the case of the R107, came with a removable hardtop plus a soft top. Meanwhile, the C107 was a fixed-head coupe. The R107 in particular would prove to be a massive success. In total, over 237,000 R107 variants were made between 1971 and 1989. Today, an R107 represents a sound and safe way to get into classic cars, as it’s built tough and can keep going on and on when properly maintained. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 184,122-mile 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL from Sandy, Utah for sale today. Its mileage is proof that not only is this a car that can eat up long distances, but it’s also one that encourages you to drive it more and more.

2025 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$147,000

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is the most popular two-door luxury grand tourer in the brand’s hierarchy. It’s been around since the 1950s, and has always offered buyers the best blend of luxury, comfort and seamless long-distance cruising ability. With the latest R232 generation, the SL became a Mercedes-AMG product. It went back to being a 2+2 after a few generations of solely offering two seats, and swapped out the previous generation’s sophisticated but tricky to maintain folding metal roof for a more conventional multi-layer soft top. All that, plus some heady tech and performance gains are what you can expect with this 4,100-mile 2025 Mercedes-AMG SL55 from Eria, Colorado. This car packs a V8 with twin turbos, MANUFAKTUR Monza Grey Magno paint, 21-inch AMG 10-spoke Y-design wheels in black, the Driver Assistance Package, and so much more.

2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE Silver Edition

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$41,500

Land Rover, that iconic British automaker who gave us the OG Defender way back in 1948, has only risen from strength to strength. Curiously, they are one of a handful of automakers who’ve only offered SUVs in their portfolio. You won’t find a sports car, grand tourer, sedan, station wagon or pickup truck (unless you count the original Defender which was offered in open-bed form). Their Range Rover sub-brand is well-regarded for being a cut above its parent, in terms of luxury as well as sportiness. That’s where this 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE hails from. With under 63,000 miles on the odometer, this two-row midsize luxury SUV is perfect for a family that needs space, luxury, off-road ability and cargo capacity. It’s up for grabs in Largo with two keys included in the sale.
