1962 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Coupe
CHASSIS NO: 220SE024130
2.2 liter inline six-cylinder engine, 134 HP, three-speed automatic gearbox, independent coil spring suspension, front wheel disc brakes; wheelbase: 108.3” 

The Mercedes-Benz W111 series was the top-range of luxury vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, produced from 1959–1968. Beginning in 1961, the sporty two-door coupe was developed and premiered in Stuttgart for the 75th Anniversary of the opening of the Mercedes-Benz Museum. The two-door SE Coupe sold for $8,900 when new. It remains a smooth and comfortable touring car with plenty of room that is equally at home on the Autobahn as it is on American highways. 

This fine SE Coupe was restored in 1995 by Walters Star in Denver, Colorado, for longtime owner Rick Cover, and purchased by the current owner in 2004 – fulfilling a lifelong dream of owning a car that was identical to one his father had purchased new. It has been carefully stored and driven only in clear, dry weather ever since. Recent servicing includes new tires, new brakes and hydraulics on all four wheels, muffler, and fuel system rebuild. The car starts easily, runs silently, and cruises effortlessly. 

The beautiful white paint retains a deep shine, with just a few very minor chips keeping it from a #1 description. The chrome is also very good, and it’s obvious that the car is laser straight, as all the panel gaps are excellent. The interior is very clean, with beautifully finished woodwork, and only a minor seam split on the driver’s seat to be aware of as a flaw in the upholstery. The factory Becker radio is in place, but has not been repaired, and the air-conditioning works great. The glass is outstanding, the carpets are clean and fresh, and the entire car presents today in fine factory correct condition throughout. The factory manuals, all receipts, and a custom car cover are included with your purchase. 

This beautiful SE Coupe has traveled just 69,077 miles since new, and has obviously been exceptionally well cared for. The body and undercarriage are very solid, the panel gaps excellent, and the interior is beautiful. If a well cared for, documented Mercedes would be a nice fit in your collection, here’s an excellent example of this timeless marque for your consideration.

Mercedes goes boating again with G63 AMG-inspired Cigarette

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

Cigarette Racing has another Mercedes-Benz AMG-themed boat headed out to sea. After The SLS AMG-inspired 46-foot Rough Rider in 2010 and the C63 AMG Black Series-inspired 50-foot Marauder in 2012, this year's Miami Boat Show will introduce the 42-foot Huntress, theme provided by the G63 AMG.
The latest Cigarette homage is less overly racy than the ones before, befitting a watercraft modeled off a performance SUV, but don't let the looks fool: there are five Mercury Racing Verado 350SCi outboard engines, each one of them packing a supercharged inline six-cylinder with, natch, 350 horsepower. Those 1,750 horses will be good for 78 miles per hour when you've got some saltwater underneath you.
If you're in South Florida this week, Booth B-23 at the Miami Convention Center could be your best place to see it. Otherwise, like the 536-hp G63 AMG, it could be hard to catch. There's a press release with more information below.

Mercedes says it's tops in luxury sales for 2012, not BMW

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

It turns out that Mercedes-Benz North America has legitimate claim to being the top selling luxury nameplate in the US in 2012.
While sources such as Autodata had put BMW in the top spot, registration data from R.L. Polk shows that Mercedes customers registering new vehicles topped the Bavarian automaker in the most recent calendar year. Polk says Benz posted 274,123 registrations, compared with BMW's 268,498.
In terms of sales posted, BMW had bested Benz 281,460 to 274,134. But sales are recorded somewhat inconsistently from automaker to automaker. Some book the sales as soon as they are shipped from factory to dealer. There is perennial gamesmanship between the two German rivals, and the sales numbers suggest that BMW pushed out some extra sheetmetal to dealers in the last four weeks of the year.

Mercedes to roll out C63 AMG late in 2014 with 4.0L V8

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

The new 2014 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is upon us, launching initially in North America with turbocharged four-cylinder C300 4Matic and six-cylinder C400 4Matic flavors. But that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg when it comes to the vast array of powertrain configurations that will be offered in the new C-Class in markets around the world. Orders will soon be rolling in for gasoline, hybrid and diesel engines with four, six or eight cylinders, driving the rear wheels or all four, with the seven-speed automatic transmission soon to be replaced by a new nine-speed unit. But what enthusiasts are really looking forward to is the next C63 AMG.
As BMW has done with the M3 (and new M4), Mercedes has gradually ratcheted up the cylinder count in its AMG C-Class, graduating from the 3.6-liter V6 in the original C36 AMG to the 4.3-liter V8 in the C43 AMG, then the 5.5-liter V8 in the C55 AMG before going the distance with the sublime 6.2-liter V8 in the C63 AMG. Like its rivals, Mercedes is expected to use turbochargers as a replacement for displacement in the next model, but unlike its Bavarian rival, it won't be losing any cylinders in the process.
Skipping the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 that has gone on to power other AMG models, the next C63 AMG is still expected to introduce a new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing between 450 and 500 horsepower. It'll also reportedly keep the same seven-speed automatic transmission (instead of switching to the new nine-speed), but the jury's still out on whether it'll come with rear- or all-wheel drive (or offer buyers the choice). The downsized V8 - codenamed M177 - is then expected to find its way into other models, but the C-Class will be the first to get it when it arrives before the end of the new year ahead.
