Here is a beautiful Mercedes 240D with manual transmission that runs excellent. It looks great, has no leaks, has AC, is completely rust free, and runs perfect. It was, at some point, in an accident, and was repainted (the original color) and repaired. We were told that the engine was rebuilt at this time (when it had about 100,000 miles). The odometer works and reads 166427 miles, so we assume these are the original miles, but because of the salvage title, we can't be sure. The body is straight except for a small dent/scrape on the passenger side next to the rear tire. There are also a few small dings and scratches that we tried to photograph. The interior is original and in pretty good condition. The upholstery has two or three small tears on the driver's seat: one small one on the lower back, one on the side next to floor and another on the back a little below the headrest. The other seats look fine and just need a deep cleaning. The dash has several cracks but has a fitted carpet to hide them. The wood paneling is still in pretty good condition. The glove box latch is a little loose. The carpets could use a good shampoo. The headliner has a couple very small tears near the sunroof, and the lining around driver's side door is wore and torn. Has the original first aid kit full and untouched. Sunroof button is missing, antennae goes up and down only manually, there is a small crack in the upper corner of front windshield on driver's side. The front tires are pretty good, but the back tires don't have a whole lot of tread. It is not a perfect car, but it runs like a top. It has a lot more pep around town than an automatic. It is also great on the freeway. We took it up to 80 mph and it was as smooth as could be. It starts on the first try every time, it has no leaks, the AC blows cold, and it has also been converted to run on veggie oil we are told, although I see no separate tank in the trunk. This is a classic car that is ready to be an every day driver. Great on gas and beautiful design. If you are in the area, please stop by and drive it.. Will work with buyer about pick up, but buyer will need to arrange any shipping arrangements.

Brabus 800 Roadster is a power-mad aristocrat
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If we're being completely honest, we haven't exactly been in love with the aesthetics of the sixth-generation Mercedes-Benz SL-Class. It's mostly a front-end issue, with its glowering eagle-eye headlamps and upright, dinner-plate-sized Three-Pointed Star coming across to us as overwrought. That's particularly troublesome for a roadster whose history has of the most elegant designs of all time in its back catalog. Somehow, the new R231 generation's brash visuals seem more at home on this Brabus 800 Roadster to us.
That's probably because the high-dollar German tuner has turned up the wick on the SL's visuals even further, with carbon fiber bodywork, a more aggressive aero kit, matte hood scoop and complex two-finish wheels. It's all-the-way committed to its brashness, in other words - and justifiably so. Anything with 800 horsepower and 1,047 pound-feet of torque has earned the right to look however it wants, right?
Brabus started with the SL65 and its not-exactly-underpowered 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12, and went to town, fitting their own turbocharger and intercooler system, along with a less-restrictive exhaust system with driver-selectable sound levels and new engine electronics. The result is a 3.7-second 0-62 mph time, an electronically limited top whack of 217 mph... and one seriously compromised toupée.
Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.
EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
