The Best Vintage Mercedes You Can Actually Buy
There’s nothing like a beautifully kept vintage Mercedes. Don’t get me wrong, I love all of the new ones, especially when they have more power than God. However, there’s just something about the smell of old leather, possibly cigar smoke, and the grace and elegance only an old Mercedes can give you. You feel like a movie star, which is a lot of fun. And exactly what this car would do.
Yes, we missed out on the auction by a few days. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t all just stop, stare, and try not to lick the computer screen.
This is an impeccably well-maintained 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL, with just 20,885 miles. It’s a convertible, which means it’s not only going to show off how awesome you look, but will completely expose you to the clear blue skies of Southern California, home of your fellow movie stars. It also has a great big 5.6L V8 to effortlessly cruise those Pacific Coast roads.
It’s epically cool. I really want one. And someday, I might actually be able to buy one, because this beaut didn’t go for crazy money. If this is anywhere near the going rate, it’s truly one of the best vintage Mercedes you can get. So go out, search your local Craigslist, eBay, and Classic Car Trader ads, and find one before people realize how cool they are.
