Since 1954, the Mercedes-Benz SL has represented the best luxury grand tourer out of Stuttgart. It's seen long production runs and continues to this day as a Mercedes-Benz icon. The R230 generation saw a ten-year run from 2001 to 2011 and spawned some fine AMG variants. This 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG is one such example, and with 39,952 miles on the clock, it's clearly been run very lightly. What makes this 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG so special? Let's find out.
An SL's typical color from this era would be shades of gray, black, or blue. Not this 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG. The Mars Red paint job shimmers in the sunlight, and this car is clearly for making a statement wherever you go. There's no denying that the shape has aged well, helped by the 18-inch AMG multispoke alloy wheels and low-profile tires. Let's not forget the piece da resistance, the full metal powered folding top. Coupe or convertible, you can have both in one car. Ample AMG badging adorns this car, together with the V8 Supercharged script, and you'll also find quad exhaust tips to let everyone know that this SL packs nearly 500 horses under the hood. Inside, it's a more sober gray leather affair, with seating for two occupants. Remember that the SL always carries the best Mercedes-Benz tech and amenities of the period. That's why you'll find lovely wood trim and power-adjustable seats with heating, ventilation, memory, and massage functionality. More things to discover include a super Bose sound system, dual-zone climate control, cruise control, and the best touchscreen infotainment system that Mercedes-Benz had to offer in 2005, which includes COMAND navigation. Hints of AMG around the cabin include the 200mph speedometer plus drilled and rubber-studded metal pedals,
Pop the hood of this 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG, and you'll find the aforementioned supercharged V8 staring back at you. Displacing 5.5 liters, it puts out 493hp and 516lb-ft to the rear wheels. While you may question the 5G-Tronic 5-speed automatic transmission, it was the only thing that Mercedes-Benz had at the time that could handle the engine's massive power and torque. The top speed is capped at 155mph, but Mercedes-Benz claimed at the time that 200mph was a piece of cake for it.

The Germans seem to know a thing or two when it comes to two-seater sports cars. BMW, Mercedes, and Audi have all dabbled in this segment with their creations. This 2022 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG Roadster is what you get when fine craftsmanship and a fantastic chassis and drivetrain are combined. Mercedes has been producing the SL for 70 years. It’s safe to say that they know what they are doing when it comes to a two-seater convertible sports car.
The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class has been representing the pinnacle of two-door grand tourers that Mercedes-Benz can make since its 1954 debut. Many generations have been made since then, and this 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG Convertible comes to you from the R230. Produced between 2002 and 2011, the R230 brought fresh styling and engineering. Of course, AMG got their hands on the model too, with a fearsome SL55 variant. That’s what this car is, and it’s got only 34,000 miles on the clock. So, if you want a contemporary, V8-powered roadster with plenty of modern touches but none of today’s excessive digital screens, this car is for you.
What do you get if you want a Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but with a sportier, coupe-like silhouette? One might point to the E-Class Coupe, but then you counter with “I want four doors”. No worries, Mercedes-Benz’s boffins had anticipated such a request. That’s why the CLS-Class was born 2004, as a four-door coupe-like variant of the E-Class. Three generations were made before the nameplate was retired in 2023, as Mercedes-Benz now offers similar value propositions in other models. This 2018 Mercedes-Benz CLS550 comes from the second generation of the model, and has covered 72,229 miles so far. It’s a well-specified car, with the Premium Package, AMG Line Package, Parking Assist Package, Night Package, and Driver Assistance Package all ticked off. Hence, it’s a great luxury car if you’re looking for something truly sleek and stylish, with a Star on the nose.
If you look at any modern luxury car, its main selling points are its gargantuan screens pasted on the dashboard or its gimmicky self-driving abilities. Go back 30 years, however, and the term Luxury Car meant something completely different. This 1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 Coupe with just 135,238 miles on the clock is a perfect representation. The W140 generation is known as the last overengineered Mercedes, and it really shows.
One of the most popular luxury midsize cars, the Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class, was introduced in 1984. Since then, this sturdy German cruiser has gained a reputation for being the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’s bulletproof build quality and reliability. It was made as a sedan, coupe, convertible and estate. Up for sale today is a pleasant 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300CE two-door pillarless coupe with a scant 99,157 miles on the odometer. We say scant because it’s not difficult for these cars to quickly rack up mid or high six-figure mileages. So, if you want a practical modern classic that can possibly outlive you, here’s the golden ticket. The car comes with two keys, the original manual, and is reported to have all servicing done up to date.
The art of taking a road trip is something very difficult to perfect. Picking a vehicle that has that balance of speed, comfort, style, and handling is nearly impossible… Nearly. This 2013 Bentley Continental GT with just 55,069 miles under its belt would argue otherwise. Bentley has been known to produce fantastic Grand Tourers and this is no exception. No other car maker has the same reputation of comfort and speed as Bentley – and it’s clear why.
One of the main characteristics that defines Bentley cars is their driving feeling. They are not only able to give you the sensation of speed and power but also glamour and comfort. Bentley started its journey in a relentless pursuit of both luxury and performance. With every new release, they have amazed the automobile community by reaching new heights in their endeavors. Bently offers choices for almost all market needs, including sporty vehicles, luxury vehicles, and SUVs. What we have here is a drop-top with all the luxury that a Bentley is known for. The 2007 Bentley Continental GTC is based on the Continental GT coupe, and it was the only option available with a convertible roof at the time. With 45,918 miles on its clock, this GTC is located in Loxahatchee, Florida.
BMW has always bragged about how they produce The Ultimate Driving Machine, and time and time again, they seem to be right. This 2017 BMW 650i with just over 70,000 miles on the clock is the perfect long-distance, high-performance grand tourer. With a rear wheel drive setup and a fat V8 up front, fun is sure to be had. The 6 Series nameplate has been around for a long time and BMW has proven with every generation that if there is any car brand that can make a car that can drive across a country in comfort, style, with fun road manners, it can only be them.
