****THIS CAR IS A 1986 MODEL BUT EBAY DOES NOT TAKE EURO VIN PAST 1980****This is one of the Very rare and highly collectable Mercedes Benz 190 2.3-16 valve Cosworth cars built by Mercedes to homologate the race version of this car to compete in the European Touring car races. Mercedes was building a BMW M3 Competitor and turned to the British race car tuner Cosworth to build it. The result was this car which shared the 190 body but little else. The engine was highly modified with a new head and completely new internals and put out 185hp in Euro Spec (THIS IS A EURO SPEC CAR). It has the exact same dogleg Getrag transmission as the BMW M3 as well. The body has an improved body kit from the factory which lowers the drag coefficient to .32. And the interior is highly modified with 4 bolstered leather seats. This car also has Euro headlights since it was originally delivered overseas, and also wears some later AMG Monoblock wheels.

While all 2.3-16 Cosworth cars are very rare to begin with, this car is even more rare. It's the Euro version which is quite a bit different than the US version. It has the higher compression, higher horsepower engine, manual transmission (Most US cars were Automatic) the better bumpers, Headlights, and is pearl black where most US cars were smoke silver, a champagne color. Very few of this spec car come up for sale. and even fewer in this condition.

This car is in excellent cosmetic condition, and runs and drives well. However be advised, it just was pulled out of storage after laying dormant for several years in a garage, and may need some fine tuning and TLC before it is used regularly again. We've not had the car serviced since it was traded in, but have driven the car, and have not noted any signifigant problems. It runs well, drives well, shifts well and stops well. Some small items are not working such as the aftermarket stereo system, and the A/C will need a recharge.

If you are looking for a truly rare and desirable Mercedes at a bargain price, this could be an amazing car for the right Enthusiast.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept crossover leaked ahead of Shanghai debut

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension.
Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014.
Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.

Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG spied in Sweden

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

We've spotted the all-new Mercedes-Benz GLA testing a couple times in recent months in getting closer to production form and shedding camouflage, but now it looks like we're see our first look at the AMG version of this compact crossover. The low ride height might trick some into thinking that we're just seeing the already-confirmed A45 AMG out testing, but the unique beltline, rear doors and side windows confirm this is some version of the GLA-Class.
What makes us so confident that this is the AMG model? Well, for starters, this prototype has beefier brakes with cross-drilled front and rear rotors and bigger front calipers, but it also sports dual exhaust outlets poking through the rear fascia and a suspension that has been lowered considerably. Our spy shooters said that this car's exhaust note made it almost certainly an AMG model.
Just to be clear, the GLA AMG will not be powered by a 4.5-liter engine. The closely related A45 AMG will carry the "45" in its name to celebrate the first 45 years of AMG, and our sources seem to indicate the AMG version of the GLA will do the same. We're expecting this sporty crossover to produce as much as 350 horsepower from its AMG-tuned four-cylinder engine, and like the all-new E63 AMG, it could very well come standard with 4Matic all-wheel drive.

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.
