1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

The classic car in focus is a 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL, a timeless example of German engineering and elegance. Manufactured three years into the 'R107' SL series run, this iconic roadster boasts a powerful 4.5-liter V8 engine, seamlessly paired with a fluid three-speed automatic transmission for effortless cruising. Originally finished in an eye-catching Aqua Blue exterior, it maintains its striking appeal even today, further complemented by tan leather upholstery creating a classic driver-focused cockpit ambiance. This well-preserved 450SL has seen just over 86,000 miles on the odometer and retains many of its original features, including a black soft top for wind-in-your-hair motoring, steel wheels with painted covers, fog lights, and body-color mirrors. Having spent most of its life in Ohio before switching hands in 2021, this vintage Mercedes-Benz Convertible stands poised to reawaken emotions on any winding country road once again.
