The Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class has quietly turned into one of the most tempting luxury convertibles from the 2000s. You get classic Mercedes looks, a naturally aspirated V6, rear-wheel drive, and a power soft top that still oozes elegance almost twenty years on. But this 2008 CLK350 Cabriolet cranks things up a notch: with just 4,900 miles, it’s less a used car and more a time capsule.

What It’s Worth Right Now
According to Classic.com, the market for the 2006-2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 Convertible has remained relatively steady over the past year. Market data shows the average sale price sits at $9,284, while the current market benchmark is around $11,556. Recorded sales range from $4,400 at the low end to $18,700 for the best examples, with dozens of sales tracked across the market.
That makes this 4,900-mile Cabriolet a real unicorn. You just don’t see W209 CLK350s with mileage this low – most have racked up 50,000, 100,000, or even more. Cars this well-preserved usually fetch a serious premium, and the condition alone puts it in a league of its own.

Right now, bidding sits at $7,400 with a few days left on the clock. Given the mileage, pristine condition, and all the paperwork that comes with it, don’t be shocked if the final price climbs toward the top end of recent CLK350 Convertible sales.
Condition and Details
Dressed in Capri Blue Metallic with Stone Nappa leather, this CLK350 sports one of the more subtle color combos Mercedes offered for the W209. The blue soft top matches the body perfectly, and the light leather inside gives the cabin a classier vibe than the usual black-on-black setup.

Under the hood sits Mercedes’ 3.5-liter M272 V6, good for 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, hooked up to a seven-speed automatic with Touch Shift. Power goes to the rear wheels, so it keeps that classic grand tourer feel instead of chasing outright speed. It rolls on factory 17-inch five-spoke alloys, now wrapped in fresh Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires put on earlier this year.

Besides the shockingly low mileage, the listing boasts a clean history report – no accidents, no damage. You also get the owner’s manual, service records, heated 10-way power seats, COMAND navigation, dual-zone climate control, a wind deflector, and both blue and original beige floor mats. According to the seller, the car was bought from its original owner in 2025 and has only seen about 800 miles since then.

What Makes the Mercedes-Benz CLK350 Cabriolet Unique
The W209 CLK sits in a sweet spot in Mercedes history. It landed before Mercedes went wild with aggressive styling and turbocharged everything, so you get a cleaner look and a naturally aspirated drive that’s getting harder to find. As a Cabriolet, it sticks with a classic fabric soft top instead of a folding hardtop, which keeps the weight down and the lines looking sharp.

The CLK55 AMG usually hogs the spotlight, but for a lot of buyers, the CLK350 is actually the better grand tourer. The M272 V6 is smooth and easygoing, the ride is comfy enough for long road trips, and you won’t lose sleep over AMG-level running costs. A low-mileage, well-kept example like this gives collectors something that’s getting rarer by the day: true originality.
Final Thoughts
Finding any convertible with under 5,000 miles is rare, no matter the badge, and that’s exactly why this CLK350 grabs your attention. It looks like it’s barely been driven, pampered throughout its life, and kept almost entirely stock. The spotless history and stack of service records just seal the deal.
If you’re hunting for a modern classic Mercedes convertible, this is one auction to keep an eye on. The current bid is still below the market average, but cars with mileage this low tend to spark a bidding war as the clock winds down.
