Are you on the hunt for a classic car that’s a German icon and a smooth boulevard cruiser to boot? Why not set your sights on a Mercedes-Benz SL from the R107 generation? Produced between 1971 and 1989, the R107 is entrenched in stardom. It’s been the preferred car of many Hollywood stars of the ’70s and ’80s, and it has starred in countless movies and TV series from the same time. Thanks to its suave design and timeless style, the R107 is a great classic car and one that will undoubtedly appreciate in value as time goes by. That’s why you shouldn’t pass up on this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL that’s for sale in Palm City, Florida, with a mere 54,285 miles reported on the clock. The car has reportedly received a new soft top, a new alternator, a tune-up, and a recent servicing.
This blue 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is definitely a US-market car, as evidenced by its elongated safety bumpers, but it doesn’t have the double-sealed beam headlamps of some variants. Arguably, the single rectangular headlamps provide a sleeker look for this timeless classic, as do its period-correct alloy wheels. The car is said to sport a new soft top, and a color-matched hard top is included in the sale, too. That’s because this is basically an all-season car. You can enjoy a convertible in Summer and a fixed-head coupe in Winter, for example. Few cars today offer such versatility. The interior of this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL comes in diamond blue metallic, with features such as climate control, air conditioning, power locks, power windows, and power mirrors. You’ve also got a Becker Mexico AM/FM radio with a cassette tape player for your musical needs. Behind the two seats is a padded area for luggage to augment the car’s decently-sized trunk since the SL is a grand tourer. It’s meant to convey two people and their luggage across great distances. For example, this car is perfect if you want to drive from Florida to California and explore the heartlands of America in the process.
In case you do want to take such a trip, you’ll be grateful for the 4.5-liter naturally aspirated V8 with Bosch fuel injection that propels this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL. The engine is matched with a 3-speed automatic gearbox and drives the rear wheels. You’ve also got power steering and power brakes.

The R107-series of SL-roadsters is one of the longest-running passenger car series in Mercedes-Benz history. It became an icon of the '70s and '80s and to this date, its beauty has captivated the hearts of all classic auto enthusiasts alike. It was built as a sports car that can be used for continental touring in all weather conditions. Unlike modern vehicles, these classics are built with undeniable solidity. The R107 SL was a two-seat convertible with a detachable roof, and it replaced the W113 SL-Class in 1971. Up for sale here is a 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL with 121,311 miles on its clock according to its current owner. It boasts a few new components to ensure it runs efficiently.
