Bridgewater, Massachusetts, United States

Up for sale this week is my own personal 1998 Mercedes Benz SLK 230 Kompressor.  This car only has 90,400 miles on it.... a true head turner!   I will do my utmost best to describe anything and everything , honestly and to the best of my ability.  However i am not a mechanic and i will not be held responsible for any missed details.  i full encourage any buyer to come and look at car, test drive it, view inside and out before buying.  With that said, i hope my FEEDBACK for 10 years on this site says alot.....  lets get to it!

Exterior:  I would give the exterior a 7 out of 10. The exterior is a sexy metalic blue, i belive it to be the original color and is in good condition.  There are some signs of re paint/overspray in a few sm spots. and it appears that maybe the front bumper was replaced at one time.  The nose is a little off where the lights meet up to the bumper and the lights themselves are 1 piece aftermarket. there are no fog lights on this car.  And there is a small molding missing on the drivers side lower front fender (prob 25$ at the dealership) The car could deff use a good buff and wetsand to get some minor imperfections out, but overall it is in great condition. please see all photos

Rims: This car came with stock 16" rims, i do not have them anymore, i did purchase the rims you see now about 3 months ago witch are 18" rims with 40' low profile tires.  3 of the tires are used and still have about 85% tread left, one of the tires is brand new is only 1 month old.  The rims are flawless overall id give them a 9 out of 10.

Interior: i would give the interior a 8 out of 10.  This is the original black on black interior.   The dash is great, the seats are great (very small tear starting in the center of drivers seat, about 1/2 inch) all power options work on the car, the carpets are clean, there is no other stains or smells (non smoker). Some of the center console finish is pealing a little... the car has an aftermarket cd player installed.

Engine/other: Id give this engine a 8 out of 10.  It has never done me wrong in the year ive owned it.  This is the reliable 4 cyl supercharged, rear wheel driven engine. Does not leak or burn anything, i have done mobile 1 oil changes since ive owned it.  all fluids are up to par and i just had an oil change on it last month.  The ABS light is on, and has been on since i owned it.  the brakes work flawless, so i saw no need to bring it to dealership, also the ASR light is on, (wich has a switch) i have been told that maybe the 2 of them co- inside with eachother.  i have no idea what the ASR light does?? 

Convertible Roof:  The roof works great on this car and has never failed me.  Every once in a while if you drive over a good size bump, the roof light will blink and you will hear a few beeps, then it goes away. Thats the only issue ive ever had.

I believe im the second or 3rd owner on the car, i bought it out of state so i do not know the history, and because i told you about the front bumper, it may or may not have been in a minor accident. i see no damage under the hood or under the car. This car does have a CLEAN TITLE ...please use your own judgment or purchase your own vehicle history report.  i can only tell you what i know since ive owned it.   i am an honest man who has sold everything from antiques to cars from video games to sports memorbilia.... i try my best to decribe it all, so there are no surprises and my customer is truly happy.  and hopefully my Feedback speaks volume.

The car is located in Bridgewater, MA 02324 if you need a shipping quote.  I require a 500$ paypal deposit within 24 hours of auction close, you then have 5 days to pay the remaining balance in full (thru paypal or cash in hand) and 7 days from end of auction to remove the car from my property.  If you cannot do any of this, please do not bid.  These terms are very important.  It is the buyers Responsibility to remove car by any means at there cost.  If car needs to be loaded onto a carrier i can help with that.  Also, if you live out of state and would like to fly in and pick car up and drive it home, i can assist with that as well (for a fee). My local airport is LOGAN airport in boston ma.  I am about 22 mins south of Boston. There is NO warranty expressed or implied on this car, like all used private party cars, you are buying the vehicle as is.  if you have any questions please ask BEFORE auction ends, not after.  thank you, as always NO RESERVE!   good luck!

Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG officially teased in mini video

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The followup to the Mercedes-Benz S550, the S63 AMG, will sport a biturbocharged V8 that will likely turn out around 550 horsepower. The new engine is probably the 5.5-liter, biturbocharged V-8 that's been popping up in everything from the ML63 to the E63 AMG. The front fascia is more aggressive, which shouldn't come as a surprise, while a meaty exhaust setup can be found out back.
We managed to pick all that up from a short, 17-second video posted by MB. The original video that unveiled the S63 AMG has since been pulled down, making this YouTube clip the best look we now have at the new super sedan, at least until the Germans give up the goods for real.
Be sure to check out the video below, along with our original posting on the S63 AMG.

Mercedes was set to sell version of Nissan Titan, now Infiniti might instead

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

Mercedes-Benz Titan. Mercedes-Benz Frontier. Mercedes-Benz pickup truck. None of these things roll off the tongue particularly well. We'd like to think that's the reason Daimler opted to kill the idea of rebadged Titan and Frontier pickups from corporate ally Nissan. In reality, the execution before the Frankfurt Motor Show was due to more complicated issues.
Yes, Mercedes, byword for German luxury, style and quality, would have slapped a three-pointed star on a pair of Japanese pickup trucks that have failed to resonate with consumers in the world's largest truck market. That slapping of badges isn't much of an exaggeration, at least on the outside. According to the report from Road & Track, the truck's front clip would have been tweaked, but beyond that, the sheetmetal would have been unchanged. The interior would have received a more thorough going-over by the team at Mercedes, while the suspension and noise, vibration and harshness tuning would have also received significant attention.
The trucks would have ended up being sold through the light-commercial branch of Mercedes-Benz - the same folks that will happily sell you a Sprinter van - had the deal gone through. Issues arose, though, first with the engines. Mercedes wanted a wider range of powertrains to allow it to tune models for specific markets, while Nissan said it couldn't engineer the wide variety of engines that MB wanted to drop under the hood. For the smaller truck, meanwhile, MB was interested in a hybrid or plug-in variant, according to R&T, although this was also shot down by Nissan.

XCAR marks 20-year anniversary of Senna's passing with Mercedes 190E Cosworth

Thu, 01 May 2014

While the automotive world is focusing on the twentieth anniversary of Ayrton Senna's death, there was much, much more to the legendary driver than his untimely passing at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
XCAR has the story of a younger Senna, who, by a stroke of luck, found himself matched up against a veritable dream team of nine Formula One champions, not to mention a cadre of German touring car aces. A "probably still pissed (drunk)" James Hunt, hard-driving Niki Lauda and future champion and rival Alain Prost, were in attendance for the one-off, spec race, which was put on by Mercedes-Benz, in honor of the opening of the Nürburgring's Grand Prix circuit. And Senna was on hand with the explicit goal of besting them all.
Each driver was handed a lightly modified, but brand-new 190E 2.3-16 Cosworth, a car that can best be though of as the distant ancestor of the lovable C63 AMG. As for the race itself, well, it was sort of like an introduction of what the sport could come to expect from the Brazilian.
