Up for auction is my very original 1976 450 SL convertible with the factory hard top. This car is all original except the stereo which was replaced by the previous owner. The paint, trim, interior, and hard top are all original and show the patina of an unrestored car. This car was sold new by Dyer and Beck Mercedes in Columbia SC and has been kept in the Carolinas its entire life. I believe I am the third owner of this car and I have all the orignal paperwork including all manuals and the original owner's engraved dash placard. I also have the orignal spare(with the orignal Michelin Tire), the original tool kit, and orignal hub caps. The paint color is Astral Silver Metallic, which was a $416 option in 1976, and is original. There is some fading and checking but it's only original once. The interior is in fair condition and shows typical wear on seats, piping, dash, and console. The floor pans, door jambs. and kinder seat are rust free. The trunk pan however will need to be replaced. The motor is a little cold natured but runs good once warmed up. The transmission works well and shifts like it should. Brakes also work well. I have confirmed with Mercedes Benz Northlake in Huntersville NC that this vehicle is eligible for the front sub frame recall. You're more than welcome to call with the vin to verify. This car is a project car but is a fantastic example if you want a solid survivor or restoration project. I'm selling because I currently have too many projects. if you have any questions please don't hesitate to call. I happy to show this car any time if you'd like to come see it. Call Seth at 704-651-5349. Leave message. No texts.

Mercedes-Benz killing Maybach in 2013, replacing with S600 Pullman
Fri, 25 Nov 2011According 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 CLA order guide leaked
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The dealer order guide for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA has made its way online courtesy of the crew at CLAForums.com, and not only does it shed light on the ways buyers will be able to configure the entry-level sedan, it talks specific option pricing. Shoppers will be able to select between the CLA250 and CLA250 4Matic, and the option sheet should offer a number of packages to suit buyer tastes, including a sport package with tweaked fascias and unique wheels. Bi-xenon headlamps and 18-inch alloys may also be had as well as a panoramic sunroof and a collision avoidance system. The CLA will be available with a number of active safety systems on board, including lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, park assist and blind spot assist, to name a few.
The new sedan comes in 10 colors, including a very dashing purple Mecedes-Benz calls Northern Lights Violet, and there are a total of four interior trim finishes. The automaker hasn't released final pricing of all models just as of yet - we do know from Mercedes' Kate Upton Super Bowl ad that the car will start at $29,900 - but you can check out individual option and package pricing in the gallery. You can also find more information over at CLAForums.com.
Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another 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.
