This is a relist, as the last buyer took 3 weeks to determine he couldn't get all of the money.  However, due to his forfeited deposit, the price got lowered.  Please, though, DO NOT bid if you don't have the cash!!!

Up for bidding is a really nice 1999 Mercedes SLK230 convertible/hardtop. Car is retiree owned and only has 75,500 ORIGINAL miles.  Black on Black with an automatic transmission.  Garage kept and very well maintained, the car always starts right up and runs like new.  Just what you'd expect from a Mercedes!  All of the power options work fine, no rust or dents, no rips in leather seats, Etc., just normal/minimal wear that you would expect on a 75k car.  The heated seats will roast you!  Car looks very nice, the top whips up or down in 20 seconds, a/c is ice cold, good tires.   You can drive it anywhere you'd like, with no issues.  I have enjoyed this car immensely, but just have too many toys, and decided to sell my least used one before winter to get some garage space.

This is a NO RESERVE auction.  I have 100% LIFETIME feedback as a seller, so no worries here.  The car is obviously a Pick-up item, but I'll be glad to assist a shipper, if needed. The pictures should show it all, but please ask any questions BEFORE bidding.  I live just north of Detroit area, and the car is available for inspection anytime before auctions end.

Maybach could become Mercedes-Benz sub-brand

Wed, 22 Jun 2011

When you're arriving in a twin-turbocharged, twelve-cylinder Maybach limo, there's no reason you should ever have to be late. Except, maybe, to make a fashionable entrance. But up at the corporate level, the entire Maybach brand is being slowed down as critical decisions about its future are being undertaken.
Last week, we reported that a decision on what path Maybach would take going forward would be due at the start of next month, but the latest reports indicate that the timeframe has been extended as further options are being considered.
The previous options under consideration were twofold: either relaunch the brand with production outsourced to Aston Martin - which suddenly finds itself with excess production capacity - or shut it down completely. And those are still two very real options. Word has it that Aston has put together four concept cars for the Daimler brass to consider, all based on the next-generation S-Class platform (and thankfully not the old one).

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.

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.
