Owning a luxury car could make someone feel a little high-class. Owning a European luxury car might take someone to another level-and that's exactly the vibe this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380 delivers. Not only is it a true European luxury machine, but it's also a sharp-looking classic. Finished in a soothing soft gray, the paint pairs perfectly with the factory-style 15-inch Mercedes wheels. The body and frame are solid, the lines are straight, and there's just enough of a sporty look mixed in to keep things interesting. This car comes with both a removable hard top and a convertible soft top, and of course, they can both be taken down to enjoy the open air whenever you want.
Inside, the interior presents well for its age and carries that unmistakable Mercedes feel. The light and dark gray color scheme is accented by Burl Wood trim. The original-style steering wheel feels right at home, the gauges are clear and easy to read, and the center console and center stack are in good condition. The carpets are decent and protected by large floor mats, while the door panels and door jambs remain clean and solid. The leather bucket seats include a comfortable center armrest, and despite being a convertible, the carpeted trunk still offers more cargo space than many other convertibles do.
Under the hood sits a fuel-injected 3.8-liter V8 that appears stock, but runs like a well-maintained engine should. Power is sent through a 4-speed automatic transmission to a stock-style Mercedes rear axle. A smooth, confident ride is accomplished with an independent double wishbone suspension setup in the front and an independent diagonal-pivot swing axle in the rear. 15-inch Mercedes wheels are bolted on at all four corners, while Copper CS4 Touring 215/60R15 tires hug the road tightly. For stopping power, ABS power disc brakes are used all the way around, and a stock Mercedes exhaust is used to let the engine breathe properly. . Highlights:
