Hi there classic benz buyers , here is a real nice old 1963 mercedes 220 se convertible for sale, i am a used car dealer in dry climate south texas and i occasionally get my hands on something pretty rare down here , and this car is in very good condition especially for it being 50 years old . i bought this car from an old retired attorney down here that had it for around 30 years or so , it spent the last ten or so sitting under a dusty carport. it was delapidated but all there with only a small dent in the left headlight area and faded paint etc from sitting around , i actually spent the better part of 5 years trying to talk this guy into selling it to me , he was saving it for his grandson who after all bought a corvette and didnt want this car. i put on a new aftermarket fuel pump and rebuilt the front brakes, installed some miscellaneous new chrome, had the car repainted , put on a new canvas top, detailed the motor , did a trans service, got the air cond working , got all the lights burning etc . i spent a lot of time and money .we are pretty good mechanics but we are not professional restorers so the car works great but the repaint is only fair quality. but this is still a very cool car . This car STARTS RIGHT UP,RUNS GREAT , SHIFTS FINE, STEERS and STOPS EXCELLENT, THE AC WORKS ,THE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS WORK , as does pretty much everything else, the speedo has a chrome cap that fell down inside the gauge,the seats are vinyl that look like leather and they are old and smell old, the window seals are rotten,i do not have the jack, undercarriage is pretty clean but it does have some what appears to be fiberglass patches around the rear trunk floor area but this is a very solid car,some of the chrome is a little pitted and the bumpers have some little dents . I have several old cars and i need to raise some money so i am offering it for sale . I have seen all kinds of prices for these cars and obviously i want as much as i can get , but I am a motivated seller so please do bid on it because i need the money and i am probably going to accept the high bid even if it does not reach my reserve . you are welcome to come and see it , you can probably drive it home to where ever but that is not a guarantee, it is mighty hot down here, I reserve the right to end the auction and sell it locally if the reserve is not met any questions please do call me jay at 956 624 2669 i can arrange for the car to be shipped about any where at your expense. PLEASE BID IF YOU CAN PAY WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE AUCTION ENDING , and i will need an immediate deposit thru paypal or overnight etc

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.
Why all of this year's F1 noses are so ugly [w/video]
Fri, 31 Jan 2014If you're a serious fan of Formula One, you already know all about The Great Nosecone Conundrum of 2014. Those given to parsing each year's F1 regulations predicted the strong possibility of the so-called "anteater" noses as far back as early December 2013. Highly suggestive visual evidence first came after Caterham's crash test in early January, with further proof coming as soon as Williams showed a rendering of the FW36 challenger for this year's championship. That car earned a name that wasn't nearly so kind as "anteater."
Casual followers of the sport - or anyone who gets the feed from this site - probably don't know what's happening, except to wonder why the current year's F1 cars are led by appendages that would make Cyrano de Bergerac feel a whole lot better about himself.
The short answer to the question of ugsome F1 noses is "FIA regulations and safety." The reason there are various kinds of ugsome noses is simpler: engineers. The same boffins who have given us advances including carbon fiber monocoques, six-wheeled cars, double diffusers and Drag Reduction Systems are bred to do everything in their power to exploit every possible freedom in the regulations to make the cars they're building go faster - the caveat being that those advances have to work within the overall philosophy of the whole car.
Mercedes-Benz releases stunning first images of 2014 S-Class
Mon, 18 Mar 2013
The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, designated W222, is one of the most highly anticipated debuts of its model year. Every generation of the flagship sedan has broken new ground in technology and innovation for the entire industry, and the German automaker appears determined to raise the bar much further with its latest arrival as it promises to deliver "the best automobile in the world." Mercedes-Benz has just released nearly two dozen interior images of the new sedan, showing off style in design, craftsmanship in execution and pioneering advancements in technology.
Unlike all previous generations - the first S-Class officially arrived in 1972 - the 2014 model completely discards a traditional instrument cluster and replaces it with two high-resolution color displays in 8:3 format with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches (the outgoing model's gauges were a mix of digital and analog). The left unit displays traditional analog gauges (digitally, of course) while the right unit is reserved for infotainment and comfort settings with the automaker's all-new mBrace2 - a cloud-based entertainment and information delivery system that is rolling out this year.
