Our Take:
  • This 1963 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Cabrio is a rare find—especially in its Cabriolet variant. The 220 SE was part of the W111 series, known for its distinctive upright headlights and "fintail" design that mirrored the styling trends of the 1960s. Only around 2,729 Cabriolets were built, which makes this European model a real gem for aficionados.
  • The car's history is quite intriguing, having been imported to the U.S. in the '70s and maintained within a private collection. With lots of records and original books, this vehicle offers a treasure trove for anyone interested in its provenance. It's like opening a time capsule from Mercedes' Golden Age.
  • A manual transmission paired with a classic 4-speed gearbox makes this car an engaging drive. The fact that the engine was completely rebuilt at 40,000 miles and a new clutch was installed at 57,000 miles adds to its mechanical reliability. It's still got the original blue plates, which are a nostalgic touch for those who appreciate California's automotive history.
  • Though it has some age-related imperfections like a hazy rear plastic in the convertible top, this car's mostly original interior is a testament to its well-preserved condition. With new Michelin Defender tires, it promises not just to be a showpiece, but something you can actually enjoy driving around the scenic routes of Beverly Hills—how's that for living the classic European dream?
