*About a month ago I was stopped at a red light for over a minute when suddenly a car hit me from the rear. It was a young lady who was 'texting' and not paying attention to the road. Luckily she was not going too fast, however it was a collision and both cars were damaged.
*Both insurance companies agreed and concluded that the collision was 100% her fault and she took full responsibility. Her insurance company 'totaled' my vehicle. However, I bought my vehicle back from the insurance company with the intentions of repairing the car, because the damage was purely cosmetic and I know how great the car is.

-The damage is 100% cosmetic, with absolutely no frame or structural damage whatsoever. The car is straight and true. The trunk floor is untouched, the exhaust system is untouched, the suspension is untouched, the trunk lid is untouched, the taillights are untouched.
-The car was NOT affected mechanically whatsoever. The car still runs & drives 100% as it did before the collision.
-I welcome any serious interested parties to check the car out, have it inspected by a professional, etc.

The extent of the damage:
-The ///AMG rear bumper cover has some minor cracking from the impact on the dip of the top horizontal section between the taillights (see photos). Luckily, it can easily be repaired by any professional shop. It does NOT need to be replaced, which saves a lot of money as a new OEM AMG bumper cover is very expensive (although their are aftermarket options).
-Both rear quarter panels were also dented slightly from the impact and will need to be repaired.


*I bought the vehicle back from the insurance company with intentions of fixing its cosmetic issues and enjoying it for years to come. It is an extremely solid car that drives like a dream. Its original 36,000 miles are evident every time you see and/or drive the car. 
*I recently bought a new sport coupe for myself, as I couldn't wait for all the litigations between the insurance companies to be finalized, and I needed a car asap.  Thus, I lost interest in the project, and I am going to replace this CLK coupe with an E-Class sedan, or possibly a CLS for my wife.


*Please feel free to message me via eBay with any questions or concerns.  SERIOUS INQUIRES ONLY!
*This vehicle does have a NYS Salvage Title
*I welcome and encourage any interested parties to come and see this beauty in person to assess the extent of the damage for yourself.  Bring your mechanic, your autobody guy, etc.

I forgot to include in my original description that the interior headliner has some cuts in it.


I try to disclose everything in which I am aware of to potential buyers, both good and bad.

Mercedes-Benz killing Maybach in 2013, replacing with S600 Pullman

Fri, 25 Nov 2011

According to an unnamed Mercedes-Benz source speaking with AutoWeek, the German automaker is killing off its Maybach line in 2013.
The unsurprising news comes after the brand was resurrected in 2002, but failed to meet sales expectations with its two core models, the Maybach 57 and 62. Further solidifying its fate, a deal with Aston Martin to aid in the development of future Maybachs fell through earlier this year.
According to the AutoWeek insider, the plan is to continue to sell both Maybach models through the end of 2013, after which the fifth-generation S-Class will go on sale. When that happens, three new variants of the S-Class will be available, including an all-new, range-topping S600 that brings back the Pullman moniker and may be better suited to competing with the likes of Bentley and Rolls-Royce.

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

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

The biggest misconception about the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series is that it's simply a higher-performing version of the SLS GT - a closer look, or better yet, a few hot laps on a high-speed racing circuit, reveals that is anything but the case.
Launched in the States in mid-2011, the standard SLS GT is a 583-horsepower, all-aluminum, gull-wing coupe with performance that positions it near the top of the exotic segment. While the AMG team at Mercedes-Benz could have left it alone, their experience with the SLS AMG GT3 race car said there was room for improvement, so they devised the SLS Black Series. The transformation from SLS GT to SLS Black Series is extensive, with no fewer than 17 different significant enhancements.
The engine mapping, crankshaft, connecting rods, valve-train, intake, exhaust and cooling are all modified and the engine's redline bumps up from 7,200 to 8,000 rpm, which pushes output of the hand-built 6.3-liter V8 to 622 horsepower. The power steering receives a new ratio, a coil-over AMG Adaptive Performance suspension is installed along with underbody braces, the track is widened, two-piece carbon-ceramic brakes replace iron rotors at each corner and a lightweight titanium exhaust is fitted beneath. The AMG Speedshift seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox is modified and an electronically controlled AMG rear differential lock ensures the power goes to the pavement. Last on the mechanical upgrades are new lightweight forged wheels (10x19 inches front and 12x20 inches rear) wrapped in special R-compound Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.

Firing of M-B boss upheld

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Ernst Lieb, the disgraced former CEO of American operations for Mercedes-Benz, will not be getting any more money from the Silver Arrow'd teat. His wrongful dismissal suit against MB's parent company, Daimler, was tossed out of a German appeals panel. This, followed the initial rejection by a lower court last year.
According to court documents acquired by Automotive News, Lieb was found to have "accepted payments of substantial value to which he - as he was aware - had no claim."
Lieb took over American operations from former CEO Paul Halata in September of 2006. Reports surfaced in October of 2011 that Lieb was dismissed from his posting at MB, with a variety of rumors swirling. Eventually, news broke that financial wrong doing was responsible for the German's firing.
