For sale is a wonderful example of legendary Mercedes 300 SEL 6.3, MB factory code W109 E63, mother of all modern AMG 63-series. Sought after combination of electric sunroof and air-condition. Repainted 2011 in classic navy-blue colour code 904. First stamp in warranty book made by a Las Vegas Mercedes dealer in April 1970. Performance still pretty surprising for unexperienced drivers. Automatic gearbox including "kick-down" is working accurately. I only used kick-down at a speed of 50 mph in order to be nice to drivetrain. Still running 220 km/h on German Autobahn representing 137 mph. Car comes with 5 Fuchs-alloys in correct size of 6,5'' x 14'' and 5 Michelin XWX tires. 4 additional factory steel wheels equipped with 195/70 winter tires. I purchased this car from a collector in California in 2010 with 55.000 miles (odometer) and took it to Germany for a deeper technical restoration. The interior has been done completely in the U.S. before shipping. - new leather seats, armrests, B-columns and lower window-frame in blue leather OEM-quality - new velours carpets and isolating mats underneath - new headliner - grey alcantara interior for glove-box - restoration of all Macassar ebony wooden parts (dashboard, door trim, window-trim) at Madera Concept in Santa Barbara This mechanically excellent Mercedes was rust-free when I purchased it, so only a few conversions to European standard had to be made e.g. removing sidemarkers and license plate lights. In 2010 a thorough mechanical inspection has been made at HK-Engineering (specialized on 300 SL coupés and roadsters) followed by restoration and maintenance works on - fuel injection pump (full restoration with galvanized parts including detailled report) - renewal of water pipes - engine valve adjustement - oil-maintenance of axles and gearbox - air condition with refill of modern-standard liquid All cylinders with good compression (report can be shown). Only 2.000 miles driven after restoration. Air bellows are in good shape; main air valve (engine compartment) will be done before shipping. I have to let this beauty go for lack of time and space and decided to offer it back to the US-collector's market. It has seen Mercedes Benz plant in "Sindelfingen" twice in it's life: 1970 and 2010. I can assist with shipping, however all costs for shipping, handling and tax must be carried by buyer. If you need further information and pictures, please don't hesitate to ask !

Mercedes-Benz to build new ML coupe-crossover in Alabama in 2015

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Mercedes-Benz will expand its factory in Tuscaloosa, AL, to build the ML Coupe, a new crossover that will join its lineup in 2015. Mercedes will also ramp up production to build facelifted versions of the M-Class and GL-Class SUVs, lifting the factory's total production capacity to about 300,000 units annually in 2015. It made 185,000 vehicles in 2013. In addition to SUVs, the Tuscaloosa site also makes the C-Class sedan.
The plans come as part of Mercedes' strategy to capitalize on Americans' increasing demands for SUVs. The company said the SUV market was up 12 percent in first half of 2014, and expects it to grow at twice the rate of the regular market in 2015 and 2016.
"We are seeing climbing demand for SUVs." - Dieter Zetsche

Mercedes A45 AMG in downhill battle with slipstream skateboarder

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

We're told it takes "performance, control and expression" to pilot a longboard skateboard down a mountain road, and that those happen to be the same values embodied in the Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG. That's how the two came to be combined in a black-and-white short film called Silver Slipstream.
There's no talking, no engine note and no color, just some music, a 'boarder and a car on a long cruise down the Franschhoek Pass in the Western Cape of South Africa." Despite that, it's actually a pretty entertaining video of the latest Mercedes-Benz hot hatch married with extreme sports. You can watch how it all goes down in the video below.

2017 Aston Marin Lagonda could live on Mercedes M-Class platform

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

A few weeks ago, we brought you news from the launch of the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante that the British brand, which is formally known as Aston Martin Lagonda, was still planning on going ahead with a Lagonda-badged crossover. Now comes word that that vehicle could very well be based on a Mercedes-Benz M-Class.
When the first Lagonda Concept debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, it sat on a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class platform, some four years before Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG deal was inked. And with that partnership, which will see Aston Martin gain access to AMG electrics and "bespoke, V8 powertrains," the opportunities for platform sharing are many.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, the boss of Aston Martin, told the UK's AutoCar, "I look at what Porsche is doing with the 911 as its core business and then it is able to do models like the Cayenne based on the Volkswagen Touareg. It is good business." We've said many times that we'll tolerate exotic CUVs and SUVs if it means keeping the beloved core models alive, which has been the case with Porsche. We see no reason Aston Martin wouldn't be able to do the same.
