$9,999
SOLD

Mercedes-Benz replaced its successful R107 SL-Class with the R129 in 1988.

Today, the R129 is a highly desirable modern classic, and a car that can be driven daily if desired. If that kind of value proposition appeals to you, here’s a 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL500 from Virginia with under 43,000 miles to its name. This car is said to be all stock save for an upgraded radio. Let’s see what it offers.

PENDING SALE
$17,499

The R129-generation 300SL marked Mercedes-Benz’s modern reinvention of the SL as a safety-focused, high-speed grand tourer rather than a raw sports car. Engineered with exceptional structural rigidity and advanced safety systems for its time, it delivered a refined open-top driving experience that emphasized comfort, stability, and long-distance usability. With over 62,000 miles, this example reflects regular use consistent with the model’s intended purpose as a capable touring roadster, while the naturally aspirated M103 inline-six continues to provide smooth, linear power delivery suited to relaxed yet confident cruising.

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.

1998 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet

PENDING SALE
$109,999

We’re going to let you in on a little secret. Nearly everyone on the ECT team lusts, or has lusted after a Porsche 911 at some point in their life. It’s the definitive petrolhead car and icon of German sporting excellence. Introduced in 1964, the 911 brought a sleek teardrop-styled aerodynamic shape to the table, and plonked a flat-six air-cooled engine in its tail. Then, it gave other features that prevail to this day, such as a five-dial instrument pack on the dashboard. A big change came in mid 1998, when the 996 era was introduced. This is when air cooling was exchanged for water cooling, due to increasing power demands and tightening emissions regulations. That makes cars like this 1998 Porsche 911 Cabriolet from the 993 era one of the last of the air-cooled brigade. They may be the last of an era, but they are far from dinosaurs. This Myrtle Beach-based machine has done just 32,000 miles and comes with a nice 6-speed manual transmission to enjoy. Snap it up before someone else does!

2012 Porsche Boxster Spyder

PENDING SALE
$74,954

The most popular modern open-topped Porsche for those who want to check out the brand’s sporting credentials, the Boxster was conceived in the early 2000s. Porsche had entry-level models from time to time, designed to attract younger buyers who couldn’t afford a 911 just yet. This strategy of getting them into the family was genius; it afforded such people a taste of the Porsche experience, basically ensuring that they’d graduate into a 911, or in later years, a Panamera, Macan, Cayenne, etc when they were ready for an upgrade. Today’s 2012 Porsche Boxster is a fine example for anyone who wants an older Boxster. It’s a lovely second-generation example from San Antonio, with just 37,250 miles on the clock. Plus, it has a sports exhaust, sport bucket seats, 19-inch wheels and more. Two keys are included with the sale of this car.

$14,999

Made between 1995 and 2002, the BMW Z3 was a two-door, two-seat compact sports car that was intended to open up BMW’s appeal to a broader, younger audience. It offered many of BMW’s driving and luxury attributes in a compact and more urban-friendly package. Plus, the Z3 was BMW’s first model to be solely manufactured outside Germany, with all examples coming to life at the company’s plant in Greer, South Carolina. The Z3 even had an outing as a Bond car, featuring in 1995’s Goldeneye where Pierce Brosnan briefly drives it. Now, the Z3 is attaining modern classic status and we have one up for grabs. It’s a 2000 BMW Z3 2.3 from Sebastian, Florida, with over 61,000 miles on the clock. It’s also a reportedly all-stock car.
