Lots of power, a lightweight chassis, and timeless style - that’s the magic of the Mercedes-Benz SL (Super Licht) tag. Starting with the legendary 300SL “Gullwing” and roadster, this 1974 450SLC Mercedes-Benz marked the third-generation of the iconic SL lineup. It was considerably expensive compared to its competition at the time, but the few who could afford a SL knew they were getting a superbly-built, designed and German engineered automobile, as well as one of the safest cars ever made in the ‘70s. A total of 237,000 SL’s were built but only 62,000 SLC’s were reportedly made making this 1974 Mercedes-Benz a rare car to own, especially in this condition. It was the SLC that Mercedes chose for their rally car, and surprisingly as a sumptuous personal coupe, it finished second of the 1979 WRC Drivers Championship in the hands of Hannu Mikkola. Carrying the legacy of the SLs, the current owner has taken good care of the car, reportedly keeping most of this Mercedes-Benz SLC to OEM condition, with a mere 52,000 miles clocked on the odometer.
Just like its fresh out of the factory, this 1974 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC comes with a tasteful blue exterior.

This SLC stands out from the rest, as one of the most iconic Mercedes-Benz features even used today on S-class models are the pillarless windows, followed by stylish rear quarter window slats. Inside the blue interior has been kept to tip top condition, as the cabin has been entirely replaced with OEM parts a couple of years ago as reported by the owner.
Under the hood of this 1974 450SLC is a 4.5-litre V8 German engine that is capable of producing 222 hp and 377 Nm of torque, mated to a 3-speed automatic that sends out power to the rear wheels only.

Mercedes-Benz rings the bells of sophistication married with luxury in automobiles and the fine artisanship of German reliability. As time prepressed, cars were no longer a transportation plaything or a platform to showcase works of art. Safety of the passengers played a critical part in producing cars. Mercedes-Benz presented the 450SLC that perfectly embodies what those modern standards stood for. Also, it belonged to the Benzes' prestigious SL line of vehicles. Meaning Super Lightweight, the SL moniker was borne by the mightiest Mercedes sports cars since the iconic SL300 was introduced to the world. Since then, the following series of high performance SL sports cars enjoyed heaps of success, and most are now popular classics. We are pleased to bring this desirable 1974 Mercedes Benz 450SLC to you, which is located in New York. This prestigious two-seater touring car displays 52,000 miles on its odometer and comes with a new OEM leather Interior.

It’s unlikely that Mercedes realised just what a hit they had on their hands when they first designed the G-Wagon. The G Wagon, or G Class, was initially intended for hardcore off-road use and saw use in military applications, among others. Later in its life, the G Class became a symbol of success, and today’s car is far from a utilitarian off-roader. While it can still tackle the harshest of terrains, the G Class is arguably more luxurious than it was ever conceived to be. Case in point is this 2024 Mercedes-AMG G63. It features only 2,368 miles on the odometer, and boasts the full AMG Performance Package, AMG carbon fiber trim, and a long list of premium touches that make it one of the most complete and desirable SUVs on the road.
The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is well-known all over the world for its status as the Luxury Grand Tourer to buy when you’ve accomplished your life’s milestones. It’s got history dating back to 1954, and represents the best that Mercedes-Benz can put into a two-seat roadster. The R107 of 1971 started a trend of celebrity ownership, which continued into the R129 of 1989. Then, the R230 came in 2002 and raised the bar even further. Steve Jobs was frequently seen behind the wheel of an R230. When the R230 was due for replacement in 2011, Mercedes-Benz gave it a grand send-off in the shape of the Night Edition. Just 100 cars were produced, and we’ve got one today for sale in Tucson, Arizona. Play your cards right, line up your finances and give us a call, and this 23,600-mile 2011 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Edition could be yours for the taking.

Oldsmobile introduced the Toronado in 1965 as their personal luxury car contender. What made the Toronado most distinctive was not its styling or land yacht proportions, but the fact that it was front-wheel drive! Yes, this was probably one of a handful of V8 front-wheel drive cars around at the time. What a curious decision by General Motors, and you can discover their curio right here with this 20,197-mile 1985 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham that we’ve got for sale. Currently relaxing in Grand Prairie, Texas, this all-original restored car awaits a new owner, which might very well be you, dear reader!

Therefore, if you’re the kind who likes classic Firebirds, this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is a fantastic find. It’s got a large V8 under the hood and comes bearing just 28,691 miles to its name. So don’t dilly-dally; pick up this Lubbock, Texas-based muscle car before someone else does.
