The 80s and Mercedes-Benz is a love story to automotive history; the W124 generation was nothing short of the golden standard of German automotive engineering. Fast forward to today, and the number of surviving examples prove that statements made that they were cost-no-object Benzes are true. With its over-engineered build quality and 80s looks, this 1988 Mercedes 300CE Coupe is a representation of Mercedes-Benz's golden years. Clocking in at a reported 179,845 miles on the clock, this is an example that has been taken care of and in search of its new owner to be enjoyed for many years to come.
Exterior and Interior
The easy and proven way to go about things is a black exterior on any Mercedes-Benz; it just works and has proven to be the best way to get that design personality out. This 1988 Mercedes 300CE Coupe is a breath of fresh air and stands out amongst the darkness with its lovely two tone grey exterior. The car is in great shape with the iconic coupe body styling boasting the Mercedes-Benz royalty of the 80s. Owing to its fresh factory appearance, this car sits on its factory silver wheels with Mercedes-Benz center caps for added effect. Like any Mercedes-Benz, the interior is a place you can always look forward to, expecting nothing but comfort, class, and the perfect place to experience that smooth drive feel. Like the exterior, the interior of this 1988 Mercedes 300CE Coupe is finished off in gray and features most of its original interior trim. The wood interior on the dashboard is in great shape and all original except for an aftermarket head unit providing smooth tunes as your cruise into the weekend.
Engine
We often hear about German precision engineering and wonder whether it's a sales gimmick, but looking closer at this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 300CE Coupe and its 3.0L inline six powertrain, that statement cannot be more accurate. When new, this German cruiser could churn out a modest 177hp; while that may not sound like a lot, it makes up for it with sublime ride quality and a silky smooth drive feel. Power is sent in gentlemanly fashion to the car's rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic gearbox.
Today, Mercedes-Benz’s line-up is a little straightforward, if extremely diverse. But back in the day, it wasn’t as simple. Take this 1993 Mercedes-Benz 300CE. Research (or if you know your classic Mercs like the back of your hand) will tell you that it’s the coupe variant of the W124 executive car line-up. The W124 era is when we saw the popular E-Class badge emerge in 1993, and the series was offered in coupe, convertible, sedan and station wagon forms. This 1993 Mercedes-Benz 300CE is a convertible and it’s for sale in Charleston, South Carolina with 130,000 miles to its name. So, if you’re a fan of classic Mercs, here’s an ideal candidate.
One of the most popular luxury midsize cars, the Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class, was introduced in 1984. Since then, this sturdy German cruiser has gained a reputation for being the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’s bulletproof build quality and reliability. It was made as a sedan, coupe, convertible and estate. Up for sale today is a pleasant 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300CE two-door pillarless coupe with a scant 99,157 miles on the odometer. We say scant because it’s not difficult for these cars to quickly rack up mid or high six-figure mileages. So, if you want a practical modern classic that can possibly outlive you, here’s the golden ticket. The car comes with two keys, the original manual, and is reported to have all servicing done up to date.
Mercedes-Benz has been dominating the luxury automobile industry for a while now. While the Unimog and the G-Class are the two most-selling models, there is a model of theirs which made Mercedes-Benz known for its robustness and legendary build. The model is none other than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, which was the successor of the legendary W123 models. The E-Class was first marketed in 1993 but was introduced in 1984 as the Mercedes-Benz W124. Up for grabs is a rare 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300CE Sportline with 111,000 miles on the odometer, which is almost nothing compared to the model's capability of doing 1,000,000 miles without breaking a sweat.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 350 SL comes from the early years of the R107 generation, a period when Mercedes-Benz was still establishing the naming conventions that would define the model in the U.S. market. Showing approximately 106,842 miles, this example is finished in red over a Parchment interior and features both a removable hardtop and convertible soft top. One of the more interesting details is the 350 SL badging paired with the 4.5L V8 specification. Early U.S.-market R107s were sold with 350 SL badging despite using the larger 4.5L V8, before Mercedes-Benz transitioned the U.S. designation to 450 SL. That makes the badging part of the car’s period character rather than simply a mismatch.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed era of the long-running R107 roadster, combining classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and open-top grand touring appeal. Showing approximately 90,617 miles, this example is finished in Astral Silver Metallic over Royal Blue leather and is equipped with both a Dark Blue convertible soft top and a removable body-color hardtop. Features such as 15-inch Gullideckel alloy wheels, automatic climate control, cruise control, power accessories, and period aftermarket equipment including a cellular car phone and Alpine audio head unit give this 560 SL a distinctive blend of factory luxury and late-1980s character.
This 1999 Mercedes-Benz G 320 is a particularly appealing short-wheelbase W463, combining the compact proportions enthusiasts seek with a thoughtful mix of original Mercedes-Benz hardware and later upgrades. Showing approximately 50,797 actual miles, this European-import example is finished in Tanzanite Blue Metallic over a reupholstered tan leather interior. Its 3.2L naturally aspirated M112 V6, 5-speed automatic, and 4WD preserve the classic G-Class mechanical character, while later OEM Mercedes-Benz body components, Bilstein shocks, modern lighting, upgraded audio, and smartphone connectivity make it considerably easier to enjoy today.
