1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC

DESCRIPTION

This is a 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC - once one of the less desirable Mercedes as a collector car but the decrease in the ability to find one and the increase in collector car values, these are becoming a more sought after and valuable car! Unlike other sellers I have not wound the odometer back and am listing the car with its true mileage. This is a 155K mile car and in overall nice condition. The paint and interior show exceptionally well and the car is mechanically sound - runs and drives very nicely. It is in comparable condition its average well cared for/collector owned convertible counterpart - the SL. This however is known as the SL-Coupe and the first time Mercedes based a couple on an SL Roadster platform instead of the saloon. So enthusiasts of the SL feel can appreciate this car as much as the SL sans the removable top - but added seating capacity. If considering an 107 based SLC either for driving enjoyment, or collectability - this car, just as its current collector owner did - is worthy of your consideration. It will be sold with a clear title.

I bought this car in 2005 from the original owner and have had it insured as a "classic car" or the last 3 years. I have put minimal mileage on it and it has been driven less than 8k miles in the last 9 years. There are a few MINOR scratches on the car, which you can see in pictures, but nothing major for a 34 year old classic. No missing parts and anything that needed repairing has been repaired, except for the cruise control. I have all receipts and proof of work from my mechanic for insurance purposes. I have put 26k worth of work into the car to get it to the level I wanted!

I have upgraded the technology in the car while still maintaining the original radio and equipment. Bluetooth has been added along with a subwoofer in the trunk and amplifier for the stereo. If you don't want the sub you can simply pull it out. I also have a cover for it as you will see in the trunk which will come with the car.

All original carpets although wearing for over 34 years, but I couldn't bring myself to get rid of them.

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.

Erebus Motorsport Mercedes E-Class V8 Supercar completes the field [w/videos]

Sat, 23 Feb 2013

Ford, Holden and Nissan introduced their V8 Supercar challengers a while back. Erebus Motorport, whose racing program got the green light not even 120 days ago, has finally shown off the Mercedes-Benz E-Class racer that will complete this year's field of entries. The first AMG race car ever to be built outside of Germany, it's an Australian-built tube-frame chassis specced to the series' Car of Tomorrow rules, fitted with body panels that channel the E63 AMG.
Supported by AMG Customer Motorsport, the 5.0-liter engine is provided by HWA in Germany, the racing arm of AMG. Regulations dictate that it have roughly 650 horsepower, a redline between 7,000 and 7,500 rpm and a torque curve that matches the parity baseline set for all cars.
Lee Holdsworth, Tim Slade and Maro Engel will drive the three team cars, each with different sponsors. Their first showing will be at the Clipsal 500 on March 3 in Adelaide, here in the US we'll get to see them in May at the Circuit of the Americas. Check out the videos below of the Erebus car starting up at its launch, and footage of all of this year's cars doing pre-season testing on track together.
