Mercedes Benz 500se (grey-market) Imported on 2040-cars

US $4,750.00
Year:1980 Mileage:200000
Location:

This is an extremely rare car. Imported from Germany in the late 80s. There are only a handful of these in the united states. 

I work for an airline and can provide free plane tickets if you wish to come get the car from me in Nashville but don't have a means to transport it back.


Grey Market - Mercedes Benz 1986 500SE
I have all the paperwork for the car to show it is 100% legal
Has never been in an accident 

Bought this car in December from a friend in New hampshire. Wanted to take on the project, but have to many already. So, it is time to sell it. Drove the car from New Hampshire to Nashville, TN with no issues. 200,XXX miles (will update soon with correct milage). I hate to have to sell it but I am moving in the next few weeks and this is the only way I'm going to be able to afford the move.

Cons: 
Front seats need to be reupholstered 
A/C Does not work
Blower motor isn't hooked up. Was disconnected when I bought the car. Never investigated why. Air still blows through defrost vents
Odometer stopped working just a few weeks ago. Haven't driven the car since then. I believe it's off by about 100 miles.
Needs new brake pads
One small bit of surface rust under the gas cap. (shown in pictures)
Windshield has a crack from driver side to passenger side and will need to be replaced. 
Headlight wipers don't work
Dome lights don't work

Pros:
Runs great
EURO BUMPERS
EURO HEADLIGHTS
(both of which, together, are close to the asking price alone)
Shifts perfect with no hiccups 
Electric seats / seat heaters work great
Tires have plenty of life left
I Have a set of H&R lowering springs I will throw in for free.

For some reason (I'm assuming because of the import eBay wouldn't let accept the vin as an actual vin). I have set the year as 1980, as you aren't required to have a vin on any 1980 or older vehicle, to avoid this issue so it would allow me to post. This car is a 1986.

Reserve is set at $2,000. However I may decide to sell for less if the auction closes and it hasn't reached my asking price.

Mercedes-Petronas AMG W04 launched to little fanfare, lots of pressure [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

No indoor cocktail hour for the launch of the W04, the newest chassis built by the Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One team. Instead, Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton spent a morning in photo and video sessions at the track in Jerez, Spain then paused a moment to introduce the car. The team will want the W04 to demonstrate the World Championship credentials of the team personnel and one of the team drivers, instead of the mostly humble performances we've seen over the past three years.
The W04 has been fitted with a new five-element front wing, pushrod front and pull-rod rear suspension, a second-generation Coanda exhaust and an "aggressively packaged" rear end. A small vanity panel, à la Infiniti Red Bull's RB9, covers the stepped nose.
Team principal Ross Brawn has called it "a clear step forward in design and detail sophistication," but as much as we truly respect Brawn's abilities and achievements, we heard him say similar things about the updated W03 last year before almost every race weekend from about mid-season. We really hope he's right this time, and so does the team's newest driver, Lewis Hamilton. We'll do our best to ignore the parallels of the Mercedes F1 team having signed a sponsorship deal with Blackberry, another company trying to find its way back to the top and still struggling, and just point you to the video below of the W04 in action.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.

Mercedes Makes A Mighty Little Sedan
We got overexcited when the W203 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan came out in 2001, calling it the "Baby Benz" when it really wasn't. We knew that, too, but our enthusiasm for a model more like the old 190 of the '80s was so strong that we were willing to stretch the first-gen C-Class to fit that mold. Today, the C-Class has done what all German premium cars do: grown in size. In this case, grown to satisfy the market intentions of the previous E-Class.
There was the tall A-Class sold from 1998 through 2010, but we never considered that a serious small Benz in the proper spirit, nor was it ever offered in the US. Regardless, we've been craving a smaller, premium, sexy sedan all the while.
