Background Story of this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

Overview of 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL For Sale by Owner

Cruising around in a drop-top luxury grand tourer reaches its zenith in the form of the 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Roadster. This elegant vehicle, boasting a formidable V8 and a sumptuous leather interior, epitomizes the pinnacle of German motoring, providing the ideal companion for leisurely Sunday drives with the sun casting its warm glow. A testament to German engineering, the 450SL Roadster, one of the first sports cars from Mercedes' luxury stable, was meticulously crafted for speed, and this 1979 model, with only 61,401 miles on the odometer, stands as a timeless classic that demands attention.

Exterior and Interior

Taking a lap around this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Roadster reveals the elements that have secured its status as an instant classic. While adhering to the iconic design language of its time, the vehicle incorporates subtle tweaks that keep it fresh and youthful. The low, elongated body features a harmonious blend of straight lines and curves, creating an unmistakably elegant silhouette. Cloaked in a captivating yellow hue, matching the warmth of a sunset, the convertible hardtop complements the body color, offering a stylish solution for inclement weather. Additionally, a black convertible soft top provides an alternative for open-air enjoyment. The interior, swathed in rich tan leather, exudes the expected Mercedes hallmarks of functionality, premium quality, and opulence. Despite its age, the cabin's modern-day standards remain relevant, with the Becker Grand Prix AM/FM/Cassette stereo system providing a nostalgic touch. The generously supportive seats cocoon passengers in comfort, and the air conditioning ensures a pleasant drive even when temperatures rise.

Engine

Beneath the hood lies a 4.5L V8 engine paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission, propelling power to the rear wheels. While this luxury cruiser may not be designed for the racetrack, it compensates with unparalleled comfort and power. The vehicle's recent maintenance, including new brakes, tires, fluids, and an oil change, ensures optimal performance. The Bosch KE-Jetronic fuel injection system keeps the engine running smoothly, and the front and rear disc brakes, along with independent suspension featuring coil springs and anti-roll bars, contribute to responsive handling. In essence, the 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Roadster combines timeless elegance with refined comfort and a touch of nostalgic driving pleasure.

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.

Love it or hate it, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a formidable off-roader and one that comes with impressive capabilities straight from the factory. While other so-called toughie off-roaders need to head straight for the aftermarket tuners to be turned into trail beasts, all your typical G-Class needs is to change its footwear for something a bit more suited to rough terrain. The same rings true for this 2009 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG from Waterbury, Connecticut. Coming from the W463 first series that ran between 1990 and 2018, it’s a superbly swift family carrier that can easily cut it across diverse forms of ground – be it sand, snow, rocks, mud, you name it. Perhaps not lava, but hey, don’t say we didn’t warn you.

1959 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$114,999

Designed by the legendary Harley Earl, the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette heralded an era of American automotive greatness that continues today, eight generations and more than seventy years later. Introduced in 1953 as an all-American two-seat sports car, the C1 went through several developmental hurdles before maturing into the beautifully refined machine seen here. By 1959, the Corvette had already received its important 1958 facelift—adding quad headlamps, heavy chrome detailing, and factory-installed seatbelts—making models from this period especially desirable. This 1959 Chevrolet Corvette, finished in Roman Red with iconic White Coves and located in Florida, represents one of the finest ways to experience the facelifted C1 era. Subjected to a complete show-quality preservation showing under 100 miles since completion, it blends timeless Corvette heritage with tasteful upgrades that enhance drivability while keeping the car’s classic character intact.
