1964 Mercedes 220SEb Opera Coupe W111 HIGHLY Desirable Manual Transmission!!!!, image 1

1964 Mercedes-Benz 220SEb Coupe W111

This luxurious model was the last of the hand-built Mercedes. Only 13 cars per week rolled off the production line. Unlike other automobiles, these cars were classics the day they rolled off the production line, and have remained so ever since. The 220SEb was first introduced in 1961 and was considered to be an immediate success. Road & Track magazine said "one of the best-looking body designs to come from any German concern." It is exquisitely proportioned and beautifully designed. Luxurious may very well be an understatement when describing this model!!!!

Up for auction is rare and highly desirable 1964 Mercedes Benz 220SEb Coupe with RARE and highly desirable 4-Speed manual transmission (VIN# 111.021.10-049611). This car is in need of complete restoration!!!

There is NO title for this vehicle… It comes with Bill of Sale Only!

Only 14,173 220SEb Coupe’s were made in the period of 1961-1965! The mechanical fuel injection, disc brakes and other improvements, made it the most sophisticated car on the road.

I purchased this Mercedes with the intention to do a ground up restoration, but as the time that I need to devote to this car is a luxury that I do not have at the moment, I need to find her a good home. This Mercedes makes a great candidate for a restoration, or a Convertible conversion and Best thing is I am selling it with NO RESERVE, so may the highest bidder win!!!!!

Previous owner took this car apart in order to be restored, but unfortunately that never happened. Glass was taken out, along with the interior, and some engine parts, and project just ended there. Car was stored for many years, and during the years, it was moved couple of times to different storages, and during those moves Glass, headlights, interior, and some engine parts ( valve cover, fuel injection pump, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, radiator) were lost and are all missing now. Car does roll without any problems, and what you see on the pictures is what you will receive!

As you can see on the pictures it received some damage to the trunk area from a trailer that was backed into it while it was in a storage. Aside from that, rest of the car is nice and straight, and doors and hood align nicely. This Mercedes has been sitting for 20+ years and the time took its toll on its paint and body. There is rust on the body and on the under carriage (please see pictures), but the good thing is that replacement sheet metal parts including the floor boards are readily available, and they are not that expensive. K&K manufacturing offers all sheet metal and body replacement parts at very good prices (http://www.kkmfg.com/index.php )

Original VIN# stamping is still present in the front radiator support, showing the originality of this car.

Original Color was Silver Grey (silbergrau) – Paint Code DB H140.

All in all it’s a fairly complete car, that can make a very nice and fun project, or an excellent parts and donor car for your existing project, but it would be a shame for this beautiful and rare classic Benz not to see the road again!!! You can even do a conversion to a convertible as Convertibles are sky rocketing in value, and are already in $100,000+ range!!!

This beautiful antique Mercedes will only continue to appreciate in its value, and with time, these cars are getting harder and harder to come by. It is great investment, which will only continue to appreciate in its value, definitively better than any stock at this time!!!!!

2014 Mercedes S-Class priced lower from $92,900*

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

The massively overhauled 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will start at $92,900, not including a $925 destination fee, when it arrives at US dealers in October. That's a 2.8-percent drop over the 2013 S-Class, although Mercedes is fast to point out that a drop in price doesn't equate with a drop in equipment for the executive sedan.
Besides an extra 20 horsepower from the 4.6-liter, biturbocharged V8, the S550 sports a standard panoramic sunroof, keyless start, a rear-view camera and LED headlights, taillights and interior lights. Adding the German manufacturer's 4Matic all-wheel-drive system bumps the S550's price up to $95,900.
If the S550 doesn't quite cut the mustard, you can wait until November, at which point Mercedes will quite happily sell you the new S63 AMG 4Matic for $139,500. Power is also up on the S63, from a max of 563 ponies with an AMG Performance Package to 577 horsepower as standard on the 2014 model.

Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold

Wed, 08 Feb 2012

Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

The biggest misconception about the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series is that it's simply a higher-performing version of the SLS GT - a closer look, or better yet, a few hot laps on a high-speed racing circuit, reveals that is anything but the case.
Launched in the States in mid-2011, the standard SLS GT is a 583-horsepower, all-aluminum, gull-wing coupe with performance that positions it near the top of the exotic segment. While the AMG team at Mercedes-Benz could have left it alone, their experience with the SLS AMG GT3 race car said there was room for improvement, so they devised the SLS Black Series. The transformation from SLS GT to SLS Black Series is extensive, with no fewer than 17 different significant enhancements.
The engine mapping, crankshaft, connecting rods, valve-train, intake, exhaust and cooling are all modified and the engine's redline bumps up from 7,200 to 8,000 rpm, which pushes output of the hand-built 6.3-liter V8 to 622 horsepower. The power steering receives a new ratio, a coil-over AMG Adaptive Performance suspension is installed along with underbody braces, the track is widened, two-piece carbon-ceramic brakes replace iron rotors at each corner and a lightweight titanium exhaust is fitted beneath. The AMG Speedshift seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox is modified and an electronically controlled AMG rear differential lock ensures the power goes to the pavement. Last on the mechanical upgrades are new lightweight forged wheels (10x19 inches front and 12x20 inches rear) wrapped in special R-compound Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.
