Mercedes AMG 55 CLK

 

Silver/black convertible.  Extremely well maintained.  Garaged. Tiptronic transmission…you can have fun shifting or just let car do the work. 

Brand new BFG g force sport tires.  New rotors and pads.  New motor for power top.  Designo black leather.  Heated leather seats.  Roll bars built into rear headrests.  Headlights refinished so no glazed look.  Cold AC.  Pioneer touch screen stereo with auxiliary, I-pod and Sirius already wired in.  Complete new paint job in 2010 at Dick Dyer Mercedes.  No damage to car…. just didn’t like how the paint faded. 

Full tune-up and new engine mounts at 120000 miles.  Runs very smooth and it is a very very fast car.     355hp push it to 60 in about 4.5 seconds.

Main exterior physical flaw is cracked plastic bumper on front left when car hit a parking pylon.  No damage to car proper.  Look at pictures. 

Interior is in really good shape.  Leather dash pulling away a bit from windshield interface….hard to see unless it’s pointed out.  100 degree days take their toll in the south.  Otherwise car in amazing condition for 12 year old car.

Car only driven about once a month over past two years.  With four kids and little free time…just not practical anymore.  Has been well maintained at Colony
Station and BMW Auto Service in Columbia SC since 2008.  You will not be disappointed in this car…..especially for the price. 

This car does not have factory navigation...has an aftermarket Pioneer touchscreen with Ipod and auxiliary and Sirius already installed.  Pioneer also plays DVD's.

NOTE:   These cars seem to break down at 90000-100000 range and it takes about $5000 to keep it running....the $5000 has already been spent on this car...plus...this car has new tires, rotors, pads and just tuned up with new plugs at 120000...this alone was $2500.

Also, one of the biggest factory problems with this model is the fabric top.  This is almost a $3000 item and every one goes bad....the factory design made it too tight over the seams above the back window....as it gets wet over the years...the seams failed......this car has had reinforcements over the seams....and problem will not happen....all the upholstery shops say that Mercedes should have done a factory recall on the top.....

Mercedes-Benz CLA stars in sweeping short with supermodel Karlie Kloss

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

The Mercedes-Benz CLA earned itself a spot on our list of the top five unveils of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and for good reason. The German luxury compact is the first small car from the Silver Arrow that looks suitably premium inside and out. Nowness.com has turned out a new video of the CLA featuring super model Karlie Koss in the lead role. We aren't entirely sure what the premise is, but from what we can tell, it looks as if the CLA comes to life and proceeds to be a giant jerk.
After Koss stops to take a closer look at a white horse, the CLA gives the supermodel the old stop-and-go treatment before leaving her on the side of the road. Eventually, the sedan makes nice, but Koss has to ride shotgun instead of taking the controls herself. You can check out the video below to see for yourself.

Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold

Wed, 08 Feb 2012

Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.

Brabus to storm Geneva with 800-hp version of Mercedes SL65 AMG

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

At no point during our recent drive of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG did we ever think, "You know, this thing sure is slow." After all, Merc's range-topping SL comes fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 capable of sending 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels. But just in case you're still all "meh" about what the SL65 throws down, Brabus will gladly come to your rescue with this, the 800 Roadster.
As its name suggests, the 800 Roadster ups the V12's power figures to 800 horsepower and - wait for it - 1,047 pound-feet of torque. Don't get too excited, though - that torque number has been electronically limited to a measly 811 lb-ft since, you know, the transmission would probably explode if you tried to put the full force through it. Nevertheless, these represent increases of 79 hp and 73 lb-ft over the standard SL65, and that means the 800 Roadster can shoot to 62 miles per hour in just 3.7 seconds - two-tenths of a second quicker than the Merc its based on. More impressively, hitting 124 mph takes just under 10 seconds, and the droptop will finally top out at an electronically limited - limited! - 217 mph. Holy smokes.
To manage all of that speed, Brabus has engineered a special carbon fiber aero kit that reduces lift, and a unique control module for the SL65's active body control suspension lowers the ride height by one full inch. The 800 Roadster rides on new 20-inch wheels, and a unique limited-slip rear differential was added, featuring a 40 percent locking rate that further enhances performance when you're attempting to control the beast at its limits. Interior upgrades include new leather and alcantara surfaces throughout the cabin, including a leather-clad trunk.
