Mercedes-benz G-class G550 on 2040-cars
Pixley, California, United States
This 2012 Mercedes G550 is not your typical silver G550. Aside from the low mileage (~19.8k miles), spotless interior/exterior and the meticulous care that's been given to the car (i.e. garaged), several cosmetic modifications were made to "de-bling" this modern, California G-Wagen. 1. Five 16x7.5" Mercedes Ashtaroth wheels were imported directly from the Mercedes factory in Germany to replace the louder 18" versions that come standard with the U.S. G550s. These are the same wheels that Mercedes puts on its armored G-Wagens abroad, they cost ~$550-600 per wheel. Mated to the five 16" Ashtaroth wheels are five Michelin A/T 265x75-16 tires (four have about 10k miles on them, the spare is completely unused) and the factory tire pressure monitoring system. 2. The flashy chrome spare tire carrier was replaced with a custom wheel cover made by www.gwagenaccessories.com. This wheel cover was then painted with the factory Mercedes silver color to match the body and a factory Mercedes star emblem was attached. The wheel cover actually opens and closes for storage inside the wheel and is lockable with an integrated combination lock. This addition was ~$1000. http://g-wagenaccessories.com/products/wheelcover.htm 3. The chrome running boards were removed and replaced with custom rock sliders, also from www.gwagenaccessories.com. These sliders are not only functional but they cover the exhaust on either side of the vehicle. For those who prefer the running boards, I still have those too and am happy to install them if needed. The rock rails were ~$900. http://g-wagenaccessories.com/products/LWBw463RockSlider.htm 4. The hood indicator lights were changed from clear to the factory amber. I still have the clear lenses if you 'd like me to switch them back before the vehicle is picked up or shipped. 5. Weathertech floor mats accompany the barely-used stock floor mats which are also in "as new" condition. This G550 still has about 6 months of factory warranty remaining and was purchased from R.A.B. Motors in Marin County with an additional year of Certified Pre-Owned warranty. Factory warranties are transferable to the new owner but please check to see if CPOs are transferable. The vehicle has 19,800 miles and the 20,000 mile service was just recently completed by R.A.B Motors in Marin County. No accidents, clean carfax, clean title, never off road, not in the salt belt of America. You will be hard pressed to find a cleaner and more tastefully modified G550.

2014 Mercedes S-Class priced lower from $92,900*
Mon, 09 Sep 2013The massively overhauled 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will start at $92,900, not including a $925 destination fee, when it arrives at US dealers in October. That's a 2.8-percent drop over the 2013 S-Class, although Mercedes is fast to point out that a drop in price doesn't equate with a drop in equipment for the executive sedan.
Besides an extra 20 horsepower from the 4.6-liter, biturbocharged V8, the S550 sports a standard panoramic sunroof, keyless start, a rear-view camera and LED headlights, taillights and interior lights. Adding the German manufacturer's 4Matic all-wheel-drive system bumps the S550's price up to $95,900.
If the S550 doesn't quite cut the mustard, you can wait until November, at which point Mercedes will quite happily sell you the new S63 AMG 4Matic for $139,500. Power is also up on the S63, from a max of 563 ponies with an AMG Performance Package to 577 horsepower as standard on the 2014 model.
2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT Coupe
Thu, 31 Jan 2013
Mercedes-Benz upgraded its SLS flagship Coupe and Roadster for the 2013 model year, and the changes are marked with them new "GT" nomenclature. Both SLS models arrive with a retuned naturally aspired 6.2-liter V8 delivering 583 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque (the horses are up from 563, but the torque remains the same) mated to a revised seven-speed AMG Speedshift dual-clutch gearbox. Rounding out the mechanical upgrades is a redeveloped AMG two-mode adaptive suspension. Physically, the revised models are differentiated by their new "GT" badging, darkened headlight/taillight buckets, red brake calipers, unique wheel colors and high gloss finish on the front grille, exterior mirrors and hood/fender fins. Inside the cabin are new red seatbelts, Alcantara upholstery and contrasting red stitching.
As it is nearly impossible to experience the aluminum gullwing beast on public roads, Mercedes invited out to Southern California's Willow Springs to wring out the 2013 SLS GT Coupe on a racing circuit.
Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA gets official ahead of Shanghai
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Mercedes-Benz has something special planned for the Shanghai Motor Show - a new CUV concept that we first saw when it leaked on the internet yesterday. The GLA Concept compact crossover will hit the show stand with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque mated to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive, and likely previews a new production model that we've already spotted testing.
That's not news, but the laser-based headlamps with video-projecting capability certainly are. Mercedes-Benz says the array can project any image or video onto a screen, which is handy since there are a pair of HD cameras mounted to the roof rack. The cameras can be removed and taken with you on all sorts of adventures. The lamps also feature a visible cooling system comprised of a series of fans, and the system helps give the headlights their "sparkle" effect.
Step indoors and the GLA offers up the interior of a high-quality crossover, complete with contrasting leather and plenty of aluminum. The automaker says the cabin was inspired by saddle craftsmanship with "more than 65 feet of hand-stitched seams to hold the raw edges of the leather together."
