It is often said that life was better in the '80s. Music, clothes, and, of course, cars. This 1987 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs, having covered just 80,000 miles in its 37-year life. With the name being around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
The interior of this SL has aged like a fine wine. The tan heated leather seats show hardly any signs of wear, ready for those long, summer evening drives with the top down. With a JVC head unit, AC, and power windows, you can experience pure driving pleasure in comfort. Witness elegance every time you lay eyes on this car. Its black bumpers contrast well with the dark red paint and are complemented nicely by the chrome 15-inch wheels wrapped in Kumho rubber. But take the body-colored convertible hard off, and it's a whole different car. It oozes class with its combination of flat body panels and curvy bonnet.
With a name like 560 SL, you’d hope this car has an engine to match — and that it does. A 5.5 Liter V8 beast making up to 230 hp equipped with Bosch KE-Jetronic fuel injection. Paired to it is a 4-speed automatic, which promises smooth power delivery. Featuring double-wishbone front suspension with coil springs & anti-roll bar and a semi-trailing arm rear suspension with coil springs & anti-roll bar, this SL has a powerplant that is well-suited for any driver. With a new battery and a new A/C unit, be assured that this is an extremely well-kept example of a classic Mercedes.

If you want a German classic car with some modern conveniences, a V8 under the hood and a fine legacy, you can’t go amiss by choosing a Mercedes-Benz SL from the R107 era. Over 300,000 were made between 1971 and 1989, of which two thirds came to North America. The R107 redefined the term boulevard cruiser, with its performance, luxury interior and driving manners over long distances. If that sounds like your cup of tea, we have this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL for sale right now. It’s from Scottsdale, Arizona, and has covered just over 71,000 miles so far. It’s also got a smooth M177 5.6-liter V8 under the hood.
You might be wondering why there are so many R107-series Mercedes-Benz SLs for sale. Certainly, we at Exotic Car Trader have shifted our fair share. You see, that’s because the R107 was one of the best-sellers of its time. Between 1971 and 1989, Mercedes-Benz made over 300,000 of them. That’s pretty decent for a top-tier luxury car, and what’s even more eye-widening is, two-thirds of that was official US market sales! Yes, that’s before we consider the gray market or personal imports from Europe. Another factor that explains why so many are surviving is because they are built to last. Packing that inimitable Mercedes-Benz quality and sturdiness, there are plenty of examples to go around, ensuring that as many enthusiasts can experience the car as possible. Today’s 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL from Blue Ridge, Georgia is no different. It may have driven over 149,000 miles so far, but that’s mere chicken feed for this Merc. Plus, it comes with the original window sticker and maintenance records too.
With over 300,000 produced and two-thirds of that ending up in North America, the Mercedes-Benz R107 SL-Class is one of those success stories that must be told. The series ran between 1971 and 1989, and during that time, Mercedes-Benz made countless upgrades and updates. While American cars were burdened with lower power outputs and emission controls, European cars were able to better weather the storm as they were already being made to be frugal yet powerful. So, if you’d like to get your hands on a well-equipped, low-mileage R107, this 39,000-mile 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL from Hattiesburg, Mississippi is the right choice. With its V8 engine, 4-speed automatic gearbox and leather interior, this is old-school Mercedes-Benz luxury at its finest.
Mercedes-Benz has a fine array of grand tourers, but if you want a true-blue sports car with a star on its nose, the Mercedes-AMG GT is as fine as they come. Introduced in 2014, the AMG GT is now in its second generation of production. It’s a fearsome two-door fastback coupe with a twin-turbo V8 under its hood. Hence, it makes for a fine car to drive regularly, and we have a 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 55 for sale right now. This 3,000-mile machine comes with a 469 horsepower 4.0-liter V8, an AMG Speedshift MCT 9-speed automatic gearbox, all-wheel drive and a host of tech features. It’s currenrly available in Dallas.

Formerly called the Mercedes-Benz ML-Class, the GLE represents the midsize sport utility offering from Mercedes-Benz, and has done so since 1997. Then, it was called the ML-Class and rode on a traditional, body on frame configuration. However, since 2005 and the second generation, a unibody construction was adopted, and the M-Class became more road-oriented. The GLE name came in 2015 when the third generation was facelifted, and basically alludes to the model being the SUV equivalent of an E-Class. Today, what we have is a fourth-generation example from the house of Mercedes-AMG. This 2022 Mercedes-AMG GLE53 has traveled just over 27,000 miles and comes with a twin-turbo straight six under the hood. It’s also got 4MATIC all-wheel drive and the usual Mercedes-Benz refinements to enjoy, in its quest to be your next family vehicle. If you’d like to answer its call, let us know.

Selecting an Aston Martin as your next vehicle shows that you are a certain sort of person. The type that appreciates British design and sports car engineering, and most likely, a James Bond fan at heart too. This iconic British automaker has had a long association with Ian Fleming’s superspy, in film at least. In the books, Bond is a Bentley man, but when the films were being produced, Aston Martin became the selected vehicle of Mr. Bond. In fact, you can find Aston Martins in over half of the Bond films produced to date. Today’s Aston Martin of choice is a 2020 Aston Martin DB11 Volante from Fort Myers, Florida. The DB11 debuted 2016 and was made until 2023, in coupe and convertible (Volante) forms. This particular example packs a twin-turbo V8 and just under 6,100 miles on the clock.
Porsche’s Cayman is the fixed-head coupe variant of the Boxster two-seat mid-engined sports car by Porsche. Introduced in 2005 with the Boxster’s second generation, the Cayman has become a fine choice for those who want to experience the Porsche lifestyle, but prefer a metal roof over a canvas one. Here, we have a 2014 Porsche Cayman from the third generation of the Boxster/Cayman legacy up for sale in Mechanicsville, Virginia. This example has done just over 23,000 miles and features a fine flat six paired with an automatic transmission for an easy drive.
