“Think Arnold Schwarzenegger in an Armani tuxedo. A confident head-turner, with a hint of the formidable muscle underneath the beautiful tailoring. That's the CL55 AMG.” – Motor Trend



If you’re in the market for power and precision, look no further than this car: a low-mileage 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG Coupe.  With the upgraded AMG hand-built engine, drivetrain, and suspension, this model is one of kind – German engineering at its finest. In 2003, the base model CL55 retailed at $114,600. It was also one of the first production cars to challenge the 500hp threshold. Over a decade old now, this car surprisingly has performance and comforts to match the luxury sports cars today. 

Underneath the sleek bonnet lurks monster muscle: a Supercharged 5.5L V8 front-mounted engine producing 493hp through the rear wheels. The engine is not governed on this model and can reach speeds of 180mph. Finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic over Charcoal Leather and Walnut Wood Trim, all you’ll see is a blur at zero to 60 in 4.27 seconds. This CL55 offers 5-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. It also has Active Body Control (ABC) suspension, which eliminates all body roll in turns through sophisticated harmony of computers, sensors, and hydraulics.  Again, another advanced performance technology setting the bar even higher. On top of that it provides Distronic Cruise Control (radar cruise control) and Parktronic (front and rear parking sensors). This car truly was ahead of its time. 

Other noteworthy features include Bi-Xenon Headlamps, Power Folding Side Mirrors, Quad Chrome Tip Exhaust, Vented Disc Brakes, Power Sunroof, 18in AMG Alloy Wheels, Power Closing Doors, Power Trunk, Heated/Air Cooled/Massaging Front Seats with 14-Way Power, Bose Stereo System, COMMAND Display Screen with Navigation, 6-Disc CD Changer, Power Rear Sunshade, Dual Zone Auto Climate Control, Dual Front and Dual Rear Side-Mounted Airbags, and much more. It comes with a squeaky clean CarFax report, two sets of keys, owner’s manual, rubber and carpet floor mats, full spare with tools, and fitted car cover. This car has been proudly kept, routinely maintained, and always stored indoors. With only 58k miles, this CL55 AMG has collector car status yet worth enjoying behind the wheel. If only the Autobahn were closer…

In 2003, to own this car conveyed celebrity status; there was a long waiting list at Mercedes dealerships across the country. In 2014, it could be yours at a very reasonable price. If the stylish AMG lines do not hook you, one flex of the pedal will.

This vehicle is being offered for sale through Garage Kept Motors, LLC. Listing may be taken down early due to local sale.

World Car Of The Year down to its final four

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
