Description

Up for sale is a truly special Mercedes-Benz 420 SEC, finished in the iconic Signal Red with elegant cream leather interior. With just 71,000 miles and a rare production run of only 3,680 units, this C126 coupe is one of the most desirable 1980s Mercedes ever built.

📜 About the 420 SEC

The C126 SEC is widely regarded as the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz coupe design. While over 74,000 were built, the 420 SEC is the rarest of the line, with only 3,680 examples worldwide. Elegant, powerful, and advanced for its era (airbags, traction control), these coupes are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts today.
