I  just bought this car from a lady from los Angeles ca. who worked in the movie industry and is being sent back to austrialia, she paid $5.000 6 months ago and sunk in another $4,000. after I bought it I brought it directly to my mercedes mechanic who I had clean the fuel injection system, new spark plugs, air filter,  oil change, valve cover gaskets, tune up, oil change and ajust the  timing for maximum power increase, I do have an envelope of receipts from her for recent new tires, Kenwood sterio, battery and fuel accumulator, also my mechanic sees that the fuel pumps have been replaced recently, the car comes with owners manual, window sticker, service booklets and a protect-o-plate with the original owners name and los Angeles address on it. the window sticker is to a dealer in Santa Barbara ca. who knows, it would be cool to research this guy , this car cost $70 thou' and change when new, (that is equal to 2 Corvettes and a Cadillac) so you had to be pretty well off to buy one and there is a reason they cost so much ! because Mercedes put all the good stuff into them, hand built on carts at the Stutgart plant. I have four of them myself plus 2 parts cars and I sell parts to lots of wealthy people around the world who claim that that the sec is the best car ever built. I am also a muscle car  guy and do enjoy driving my sec's much more than my corvettes and Camaros, these cars are quite power, you'll be driving on the freeway and wonder why everyone else is driving so slow and then look down at  your speedo and see that your doing 85 ! handling  is awesome, these chassis are used by Baja racers, you need not slow down for speed bumps or dips, it's like a hover craft, the same with tight turns there is a hydrolic rear suspension , you will not spill a drop of your margarita .all right let's get on with the description; I will start with the negatives. the dash has 5 cracks, the windshield has a brake underneath the cowl ( the lowest portion of the windshield on driver side, not visible from most positions) the sun roof has some  opening and closing issues ( I am capable of fixing that, I have the parts but not the time) it has trouble stating when the car is warm ( this did not happen to my mechanic while in his possession ) and a couple of door dings that I will have my dentless guy take care of at my cost. other than that the paint is good to fine, it has been re-painted, the interior is better than most garage kept cars it runs and shifts real nicely with jack rabbit acceleration, all the windows work up and  down, all the seat functions work,all gauges work including clock, teliscoping steering colum works, seat belt extenders work, lights, blinkers, brake lights , fog lights all work

I did not get to finish the description, thanks ebay. the air conditioning does not blow very cold and the right hand mirror switch does not work. o.k that's it for the negatives here is what I can do ! I have a complete sunroof set up, I have the mirror switch and I have another dash with out cracks. let's work out a deal call me ,Terry 714 501 6118 . please ask questions before bidding. I will co-operate with your shipper or you can fly in to the L.a. area and drive it home anywhere in the u.s. . all inspections welcome.

New Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe spied in revealing state of dress

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

During a product briefing earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz told us that 2013 would be the "year of the S-Class." Makes sense, too, since the flagship Mercedes is so very close to finally showing its production-ready face. But the high-tech saloon isn't the only S-Class to talk about this year - quite the contrary. Seen here in decidedly revealing camouflage, the new S-Class Coupe will be joining its four-door compadre in the not-too-distant future, as well.
When it launches, the S-Class Coupe will officially do away with the CL-Class nomenclature. This doesn't come as a huge shock. After all, when the new E-Class coupe and convertible were launched, it officially marked the end of the long-running CLK-Class designation.
Thanks to the interesting camouflage seen here, we have a very good glimpse at how the S-Class Coupe will look when all of the molding and swirly paper are peeled off. Rakish body lines pulled from the CLS-Class meet a much more dynamic front fascia. Out back, there are horizontal taillamps rather than the vertical units used on the current car, and the whole package seems very svelte. Our spy photographer even posits that this will be "the best-looking car from Mercedes-Benz in ages."

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.

Mercedes making aggressive plans for Chinese market

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Mercedes-Benz is preparing a major product offensive to counteract lagging sales in the Chinese market, aiming 20 new or updated models at the People's Republic in the next two years, according to a report by Reuters. The plan is part of MB's so-called 2020 Initiative, which will see the Stuttgart-based manufacturer dump 2 billion Euros ($2.67 billion) into its Chinese market vehicles in a bid to boost sales to 300,000 units by 2015.
Were it to succeed, China would become the largest market for the Silver Arrow, outpacing Germany and the United States. Leading the charge will be the redesigned E-Class, which is set to launch in China this week. That will quickly be followed by the S-Class, and eventually by the GLA-Class in 2014.
Mercedes has struggled in China, especially relative to its German competition, BMW and Audi. Where Mercedes saw a mere four-percent increase in 2012 sales to 206,150 units, Audi was up a staggering 32 percent, while BMW's numbers jumped 41 percent. While some voices, according to Reuters, accuse Munich and Ingolstadt of boosting their numbers through hefty incentives, the fact remains that Mercedes was just walloped by its competitors last year.
