1976 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,999
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.
