The Mercedes-Benz SLK, now known as the SLC, is one of the Stuttgart automaker's all-time hits. Released in 1996, there was a short two-seat roadster with compact dimensions but not compromising on luxury. Most notably, its party piece was, and continues to be, a folding metal roof. That's why you should snap up this second-generation 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG with just 48,000 miles done. Not only is it a fine cruiser, but a potent AMG variant packing a brawny V8 under its skin.
Wearing a slick black suit, this 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG will look equally at home on the highway as it will in the city center. As an AMG variant, it has the AMG Styling Pack to enhance its looks. A set of 18-inch AMG multi-spoke wheels in silver further enhances its good looks. Although there's discrete AMG badging, the quad exhaust tips at the rear are a further indication of this car's potency. We also spot a set of projector headlamps. Touch a button, and the folding metal Vario roof will retract in just 22 seconds. The power side windows on the frameless doors also drop, granting you a proper convertible experience. Inside, you'll find a cozy but luxuriously appointed two-seat cabin. Featuring a black color theme with Nappa leather seats, this 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG is a lovely place to spend time within. The seats are heated and feature the Memory Package, plus power adjustment. Of course, the V8 elevates the experience to a whole new dimension, but we'll talk about that aspect shortly. For now, let's discuss the cabin amenities. You've got dual-zone climate control, a Harman/Kardon sound system, an AMG ivory steering wheel with multifunction controls, cruise control, and trip computer.
This 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG has a potent 5.5L V8 under its hood. Offering 355hp and 379lb-ft, zero to sixty takes under 4.5 seconds to achieve. A 7G-TRONIC seven-speed automatic transmission sends power to the rear wheels. Large ventilated disc brakes with slotted rotors on all wheels ensure sure-footed stopping power every time. There's also lower and stiffer suspension than non-AMG variants and an additional oil cooler for the engine. The top speed is electronically limited to 155mph, but if the limiter is removed, 170mph capability has been noted.

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.
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 Mercedes-Benz G-Class stands in stark contrast to the rest of this iconic German luxury car maker’s offerings. Its boxy, prominent, and can venture off-road with gusto. Introduced in 1979 as a military machine on the request of the Shah of Iran, civilian variants emerged in 1979. Since then, the G-Class has gained the typical Mercedes-Benz luxury features and technological highlights, but maintains its immense off-road capabilities. This 2019 Mercedes-Benz G550 is one fine example and it’s up for sale in Salt Lake City, Utah. With 94,604 miles on it, you can tell that it’s meant to be driven. Plus, given its off-road abilities, this is the perfect family vehicle for the outdoors-loving crowd.
The Ford Thunderbird was made between 1955 and 1997 across ten generations, and redefined the Personal Luxury Car for Americans. In fact, it created the segment, largely inspired by the Grand Tourers of Europe. So, in the 2000s, Ford was feeling a little misty eyed and decided to create a rose-tinted eleventh generation homage to this iconic nameplate. Enter the retro-modern Thunderbird that was made between 2002 and 2005. Styled by Jack Telnack, the car sat on the Ford DEW98 platform, used an engine from Jaguar (who Ford owned at the time), and marked a return to roots of sorts, in that it was a two-seater, just like the first generation. Over 68,000 examples were made, and we have one for sale. Say hello to this original owner, all-stock 2002 Ford Thunderbird from South Jordan, Utah, that’s got just 13,085 miles on the clock.
Mercedes-Benz and its lineup of SLs have always been and will be iconic; the automotive marque's pinnacle open-top grand tourer has been the car to have for eons when you want to experience authentic open-top motoring. The 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL represents the marque's most popular model; this neat example is reported to have just 90,850 miles on the clock and is a true motoring icon.
