Leesburg, Virginia, United States

      This is a virtually perfect 1987 Mercedes Benz 560 SEC.  This car runs new and needs absolutely nothing. Produced from 1986 until1991, the 560 SEC was the coupe version of the Mercedes Benz flagship S-Class series.  Based on the classic W126 body, the 560 SEC is a driver's car. It features the M117.968 5.6 L V8 DOHC engine, with 295 HP and 335 ft lbs of torque to the rear  wheels.  As the top of the line model for Mercedes, this 560 SEC includes a number of safety and comfort features only just now becoming common in other makes and models, including; Driver airbag, 4 speed automatic,cruise control, sunroof,  heated rear window, automatic climate control, dual heated seats, cruise control, and a self-leveling rear end.

     This car is currently owned by a Mercedes Benz collector and enthusiast, and has been meticulously maintained without regard to cost.  At about 69,000 miles, this car presents as new.  The leather is soft and supple (not the usual hardening of the leather), virtually as the day it left the factory. Both seat belt extenders work perfectly. The carpeting, door panels, rear deck and dash are all in perfect condition. The body in this car is absolutely flawless, as is all of the bright work.  There are no nicks, scratches or dents. As the photographs note, the tires are almost new.


The car runs flawlessly.  It shifts precisely, brakes without the slightest shudder and cruise works flawlessly. The car presents as a new vehicle. Maybe the lowest mileage 560 extant.  All accessories work as they should. Have it shipped or pick it up. I will be happy to answer any questions via  email or phone #703-217-7797. As you might suspect. it is sold AS IS with no warranty. Inspections are welcome.


Shipping and pick up, and insurance, is the responsibility of the buyer.  But the seller will help expedite shipping and delivery.

New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

Last we heard, the Mercedes-Benz SLC had been put on indefinite hold, but now Car Magazine is reporting that the Porsche 911-fighting "Baby SLS" coupe could be on sale by 2015. Riding on a modified SLS AMG chassis, the smaller and lighter SLC could be priced in the sub-$100,000 price bracket.
We'd already heard that the new car would feature conventional doors (instead of SLS-like gullwing doors), but this report focuses on some of the possible powertrains Mercedes-Benz is likely to use. At launch, the SLC could offer a pair of V8-powered models - a 485-horsepower SLC and a 585-hp SLC S - both being powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. About a year after launch, a new V6 model could emerge giving the SLC an estimated 333 horsepower and its lowest price point.
It also sounds like the car's name hasn't been completely finalized as some people within Mercedes are favoring a return of the SLR name.

Is Audi getting complacent and suffering from brain drain?

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

The argument is made in a Reuters article: Audi is falling behind other luxury brands, such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW, due to a lack of research-and-development spending and "brain drain," or the migration of top executives and R&D chiefs to other parts of the Volkswagen Group. Reuters notes that Audi's current R&D chief is the third in 16 months.
Audi, which contributed to 40 percent of VW Group's $11.6 billion in profit the first nine months of the year, is delivering cars at a record pace: 1.31 million were delivered from January to October 2013 versus BMW's 1.35 million. Yet Audi, Reuters reports, doesn't have a halo car akin to BMW's new electrified i3 and i8 or an answer to Mercedes' plug-in-hybrid S-Class, and the R&D spending at Audi is less than BMW and Mercedes by a fair margin. It's noted in the article, however, that Audi benefits from other R&D spending within VW Group.
Reuters mentions that BMW "trumpets its new 'i' series" and the new Mercedes CLA and GLA ranges are winning "rave reviews" as part of its argument that Audi's recent lack of technological innovation could hurt future sales. Those cars do pack tons of new technology, some of which are firsts for mainstream production cars. But last time we checked, the i3 could be causing BMW's stock to slide, the CLA isn't receiving the rave reviews that Reuters would have you believe and the GLA hasn't been reviewed yet.

Mercedes-AMG teases GT interior, announces fall 2014 debut

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

Mercedes-Benz opted to tease the assembled media at its post-New York Auto Show party, showing off a pair of images of the exquisitely crafted interior of the highly anticipated successor of the SLS AMG - the V8-powered Mercedes-AMG GT.
Slated for a debut in the fall at either Paris or Los Angeles (we're betting Paris), you'll note straight away that there's something wrong with this car's name. Where's the "Benz?" Well, it's been ditched to, as Mercedes says, "make the dream of the authentic Mercedes-AMG sports car come true." Sorry Karl.
"The new Mercedes-AMG GT proves that we will be positioning AMG as a dynamic sports car brand even more strongly and aggressively than before," said Tobias Moers, CEO of Mercedes-AMG.
