If German automotive brands are famous for one thing, it is their build quality. You can opt for one of their models from the ‘70s and they will likely still run as if they were built a couple of years back. To be quite frank, they don’t make them like that anymore. For example, the 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is built like a tank, and we aren’t the only ones who think so. With proper maintenance, these beautiful cruisers will probably run forever. What we are featuring here is an all-original 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Convertible showing 119,000 miles on its clock. It is currently in South Carolina and it's a great opportunity to experience what the three-pointed Star had to offer back in the '70s.
What is better than a 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL? A convertible version of it. On sunny days, you can enjoy a top-down cruise, and in bad weather, you get a hard top to keep you and your cabin protected. Cloaked in silver paint, this 450SL Convertible gleams under the sun with subtle chrome accents around, including exterior badging. The design touches of renowned German automotive designer Friedrich Geiger are unmistakable. This car is shod with Goodride SP06 Radial tires and rides on steel wheels displaying the three-pointed star. Hidden behind them are power disc brakes that provide excellent stopping power to this roadster. This 450SL has a gorgeous red leather interior that contrasts beautifully with the silver exterior. This cabin offers you a fully functioning A/C and AM/FM radio. The dash features wood trimming that adds a touch of sophistication to the interior. The driver is presented with the iconic Mercedes-Benz steering wheel and three large old-school gauges.
As you pop the hood of this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Roadster, its 4.5L V8 engine comes into view. Thanks to up-to-date servicing reported by the current owner, all that is left to do is get in and enjoy the ride. A 4-speed automatic transmission sends power to the wheels. According to the owner, this engine utilizes Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and a new battery.

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!
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!
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.
This 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 American Coach Patriot is a luxury Class B touring coach built on the proven Sprinter platform and designed for executive transport and premium travel. Combining the durability of the Sprinter 3500 dual rear wheel chassis with the upscale craftsmanship of American Coach, the Patriot offers a sophisticated mobile lounge complete with a galley kitchen, bathroom, entertainment system, and luxury seating. Showing just over 6,000 miles, its high-roof extended body configuration, the interior provides generous space and comfort, making it ideal for long-distance touring or VIP passenger transport.
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.
If you are reading this, you are probably intrigued by or in the market for a luxury vehicle option. Mercedes-Benz is an amazing brand name worth looking for because it strives to provide the best luxury means of transport on the market. The S-Class is the designation for top-of-the-line Mercedes-Benz models. There are also convertible models available in the S-Class for those who like the best of both worlds. What we have here is a 2018 Mercedes-Benz S 560 Cabriolet, which is a flagship luxury convertible that packs a punch. This example has several packages under its belt and has only done under 30,000 miles so far. Located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, this S-Class is ready to become your next luxury cruiser.
One of the shortest-lived nameplates in Buick history has got to be the Invicta. In fact, this full-size offering packed in two generations within just five years. The first generation ran for 1959 and 1960, while the second was made from 1961 to 1963. Given the car’s short production run, it’s no surprise that the market isn’t awash with examples. Thankfully, we have this 53,667-mile 1959 Buick Invicta for sale today. With its 401ci V8 and automatic gearbox, this Miami-based classic is the perfect choice for someone seeking an unconventional automobile to cherish, and of course, drive.
This 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, in all its orange glory, comes from an era of resilience. The C3 or third-gen ‘Vette is the longest-running of them all, with a fourteen-year production run between 1968 and 1982. Cars like this one are historically significant because they weathered the most dreaded time in American auto history; the Malaise Era. Even during those times, the Corvette was still the fastest American car available. Now, you can see why, when you take a closer look at this 24,000-mile machine from Island Lake, Illinois. It’s a survivor, a stunning looker, and above all, never compromised on engines by always having a V8 beneath the hood. So why not buy this beautiful boulevard cruiser and stick it to today’s soulless EVs?
Cadillac may be best known for their massively opulent land yachts that really pushed the boundaries of full-size cars, but did you know that they had smaller options? In fact, they still do. Between 1976 and 2004, their midsize luxury car was the Seville. Named after a Spanish province renowned for art and architecture, today’s 1985 Cadillac Seville comes from the second generation of the nameplate. It’s got only 13,272 miles on its 4.1-liter throttle body injected V8, and features a four-speed automatic transmission. Interestingly, the car is front-wheel drive, as was typical back in the day. If you’d like to acquire this rather interesting piece of Eighties Americana, it’s currently up for grabs in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
