Those fetch even crazier numbers.2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMGBring a TrailerWith 20,000 miles, this SLS AMG sits right in the sweet spot—not a garage queen, but still low enough to make collectors happy.

It hit the US in 2011, brought back those legendary gullwing doors, and paired them with an aluminum spaceframe and one of AMG's all-time great engines.2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMGBring a TrailerThat engine—the naturally aspirated M159 6.2-liter V8—is a huge part of why the SLS AMG is already a modern classic. While later AMGs went turbo, the M159 screams to redline and sounds absolutely epic. Throw in the rear transaxle and those unmistakable proportions, and you've got one of AMG's all-time icons.Final ThoughtsWith 20,000 miles, this SLS AMG is perfect for someone who wants a collectible they can actually drive. It's got low miles, the killer silver-and-red combo, factory carbon-ceramic brakes, and a clean history—without being so precious you're afraid to take it out of the garage.AdvertisementAdvertisementAs with any high-dollar performance car, check the service records and look over the usual suspects—tires, brakes, and anything else that could cost you later.
