The Mercedes-Benz S-Class needs no introduction. It’s widely regarded as the most well-known and technologically-equipped mainstream luxury car in the world, before you venture into Rolls-Royce and Bentley territories (and their accompanying stratospheric price tags). Today’s 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE is from the second generation of S-Class, also known as the W126 in Mercedes-Benz circles. This Florida-based sedan has just over 67,000 miles on it, but can easily treble that number with the proper maintenance. Hence, it’s a great way to get into luxury classic cars that aren’t too old, but have some modern comfort features and decent performance to offer.
This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE wears a two-tone gold and brown paint job, which really accentuates its timeless lines, the work of legendary Mercedes-Benz designer Bruno Sacco. The car bears a simple yet attractive set of silver alloy wheels, and also comes with a rear deck lid spoiler for a hint of sportiness. The twin tailpipes at the rear also hint at the same, but much of this car’s purpose is to be a comfortable, long-distance cruiser. Of course, with its suitably sizable proportions, which aren’t quite land yacht but not compact car either, this car isn’t meant for hustling around corners in a frenzied fashion. Rather, it’s more suitable to swift yet smooth driving on highways and flowing roads. The interior of this car offers spacious seating for up to five adults, in characteristic Eighties brown and of course, made from leather. The car comes with features such as power windows, power-adjustable front seats, automatic climate control, power mirrors, a powered radio antenna and cruise control. Rear-seat passengers also receive air vents for their comfort. Meanwhile, a Becker radio with cassette tape player occupies the lower part of the center console, and is, in its own right, a highly desirable piece of automotive audio equipment.
Powering this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE is a 3.8-liter naturally aspirated V8 with Bosch mechanical fuel injection. Mercedes-Benz literature informs us that the car packed 201hp and 232lb-ft of torque, fed to the rear wheels via a 4-speed automatic gearbox. Braking is via ventilated discs with anti-lock braking, and the car has received new ball joints as well.

Today, we shall be discussing their SLK or Sport Light Short in German, as we’ve got a 2002 Mercedes-Benz SLK320 for sale today. It’s from the first generation of the SLK which was made between 1995 and 2004. The R170, which is what this era is known as, saw over 311,000 examples sold, of which just over 10% were SLK320 variants like our subject car. With its smooth six cylinder engine and low mileage of just over 20,000 miles, this Morgan Hill-based car is the perfect weekend cruiser to acquire, and will definitely become a future classic very soon.

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
