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.
The exterior stands out in Astral Silver Metallic paired with Chrome Gullideckel Wheels, U.S.-spec bumpers, factory fog lights, and both a Black Soft Top and matching Silver Hardtop, providing a versatile open-air or coupe-like driving experience. Inside, the Burgundy Leather cabin delivers a deep, rich color tone complemented by wood veneer trim, power windows, automatic climate control, and an SRS steering wheel. The Becker Grand Prix head unit remains in place but now integrates discreet Bluetooth functionality, maintaining authenticity while improving usability. Overall, the cabin reflects classic Mercedes craftsmanship defined by solid ergonomics and understated luxury.
Power comes from the 5.6L M117 V8 with Bosch KE-Jetronic EFI, paired to a 4-Speed Automatic, providing smooth torque delivery and the robust reliability the late R107 models are known for. The engine bay displays factory-correct components including the air cleaner housing, accessory drive layout, ABS system, and emissions equipment consistent with 1989 specifications. Supported by power-assisted steering and 4-wheel disc brakes, this drivetrain offers relaxed cruising manners and confident performance, making the 560SL one of the most refined and enjoyable classic Mercedes grand tourers.

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.

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.
With its roots in 1885, the Triumph Motor Company of Great Britain is one of the country’s most well-known sports car makers. They’re known for a fine line-up of TR models which are sports cars, typically open-topped ones called Roadsters. Sadly, Triumph went bust in 1984, but the assets are currently owned by BMW. While the Bavarian automaker shows no plans to resurrect the brand, much of their historic production still remains alive. This 1971 Triumph TR6 is one such example and it’s for sale in Greenville, South Carolina. With its 2.5-liter straight six, convertible top cover and original owner’s manual, this is a fine catch for someone who wishes to sample the British Roadster lifestyle. And let us tell you, it’s quite an addictive driving experience!

Now here’s a legend of the muscle car scene, the fearsome Oldsmobile 442. Made between 1964 and 1980 as a proper performance machine, it was well-known for decimating nearly all comers at the drag strip. The 442 was potent out of the box, but it could also be tuned with near unlimited scope. Today, those who seek a 442 do so not only for its performative capabilities but its style as well. That’s why we are proud to offer this Torrance-based second-generation 1969 Oldsmobile 442 for sale. With under 107,000 miles, it’s definitely been enjoyed but has so much more to give. Of course when you’ve got a 400ci V8 under the hood and a stick shift to control it with, you don’t want to end journeys too quickly…
