Super Well Maintained CL Big Body finished in
ULTRA RARE Alexandrite Green!

     Here is a beautiful 1997 Mercedes-Benz CL600 Coupe. This car is very special in several ways. This car is a very low production vehicle with only 985 built and only 348 sold in the US market in 1997. It also had a MSRP of over $140,000 when new and is fully loaded! This was THE big boy car to own in the mid 90's!

     This car was delivered brand new to Mercedes Benz North America on March 3rd, 1997 as a corporate vehicle. Mercedes owned the car until January 29th, 1998 when it was sold to its first private owner with about 10,000 miles. The car remained in the Atlanta area with all of its services being performed at Atlanta Classics up until May of 2002 when it had about 60,000 miles. The car then came to Los Angles around that point where it was owned and serviced by its most recent owner at Fletcher Jones and Caliber Mercedes and shows service there up to its most recent service at 126,400. He took extensive care of the car and always garaged it. This car was his pride and joy and always received the best care and service. Don't miss your chance to own the nicest CL600 offered on eBay in a long time!

The following is a list of options as this 600 is currently equipped:

-6.0L 389hp V12 Engine

     The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car is finished in its ULTRA RARE original color of Code 891 Alexanderite Green and is in very good condition. This car is just a handful of these cars built in this special order, extra cost color. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock with no rust as any well cared for, garaged car should be. All chrome trim, glass (original windshield), and rubber seals are in great shape. The car looks almost as nice as the day it rolled off the Mercedes lot. It just had a full detail done at a cost of over $500 so this car looks spectacular! The car has also had a nice new shade of privacy tint installed!

     The car is riding on gorgeous 19" AMG Monoblock chrome wheels in great condition with only a few spots of minor curb rash. The wheels are wrapped in brand new Hankook Evo Z Rated performance tires.

     The interior is in very nice original condition all around. The dash and door panels are in very nice condition with zero cracks or damage to be noted anywhere. The tan leather seats are all in very good condition and look almost new, which shows the quality of leather used in this car. All wood grain is in excellent condition with very few minor flaws. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. The car also includes a brand new set of genuine Mercedes mats. All dials and controls function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully functional. The sound system is also very nice with the upgraded Becker/Bose CD sound system. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very clean and does have the original jack, tools, and the original spare tire and wheel. This car is all there and in excellent shape with all functions and accessories working as they should.

     Mechanically, this 600 runs GREAT! I have owned nearly 20 80's and 90's era Mercedes vehicles, and this car blows the doors off all of them! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives as good now as the day it rolled of the lot. These cars are known to be expensive to maintain, but this car has excellent service history, so you know it has been well cared for. The 6.0L V12 has been Mercedes flagship engine for over 20 years, so you know it is just plain reliable. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 90mph, and is claimed to have a top speed of 180 MPH with the limiter disabled! The car was always regularly serviced every 4,000 miles and shows it in how flawless the car drives. The car will include 1 switchblade key/remote, tools, spare tire, and owners manuals w/ service receipts. Recent repairs and service include all new motor and transmission mounts, oil leak repairs, new power steering pump, new rear window regulators, and a fresh oil service.

     All in all, this is THE cleanest and nicest CL600 that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. It also has a clean Arizona title, confirming Actual Mileage. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.


Good luck in the bidding!

Consumer Reports selling its road-tested roadsters [w/video]

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Here's a chance to acquire a celebrity-owned vehicles, and this time at a discount instead of a premium. So the celebrity in this case is Consumer Reports, that magazine that could be equally adored and abhored by car enthusiasts. CR buys all of its test vehicles and usually finds willing second owners within its own ranks, but its opening its small used-car lot to the public. On the forecourt are four roadsters: an automatic 2012 Audi TT 2.0 TFSI Quattro S-Tronic with 6,600 miles for $36,500, a manual 2012 BMW Z4 sDrive28i with 8,400 miles for $45,000, a manual 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK250 for $39,500 and a manual 2013 Porsche Boxster with 7,000 miles for $48,000.
Those numbers mean a savings of $9,000 to $10,000 before haggling - each car is listed with an "Asking price" so there could be some wiggle room if you show up with pockets full of dough and eyes full of serious intent. Since the money CR earns from the sales go back into the magazine's budget to buy more test cars, however, it probably won't take any oddball trades, so you can forget about getting any purchasing help from that track-day AMC Javelin project on blocks in the back yard.
The vehicles have been taken care of and spiffed up for sale; buyers will take delivery at the CR test track in East Haddam, Connecticut and get a tour of the facilities. While you're there they'll even take you on a lap around the track so you can feel how your car handles when driven by one of its testers. They will probably not help you with advice on which toaster and dehumidifier to buy - you'll still need to get a subscription for that. Have a look at the video below to see a day in the life of a CR test car.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.

Ecclestone wonders if F1's upcoming turbo V6s should get augmented sound [w/videos]

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

While every team on the Formula One grid is worried about making a good showing in this year's championship at the same time as they develop a brand-new car for next year's championship, Bernie Ecclestone and F1 circuit promoters have a different concern: how next year's cars will sound. The current cars use 2.4-liter, naturally-aspirated V8s that can reach 18,000 revolutions per minute and employ dual exhaust, next year's engine formula calls for 1.4-liter turbocharged V6s that are capped at 15,000 rpm and are constrained to a single exhaust outlet. Ecclestone and promoters like Ron Walker believe the new engines sound like lawnmowers and that the less thrilling audio will keep people from coming to races. If Walker's Australian Grand Prix really is shelling out almost $57 million to hold the race, every ticket counts. As a fix, according to a report in Autoweek, Ecclestone "suggests that the only way to guarantee [a good sound] may be to artificially adjust the tone of the V6s."
However, neither the manufacturers nor the governing body of F1, the FIA, think there will be a problem. Ecclestone fears that if the manufacturers "don't get it right" they'll simply leave the sport, but the only three carmakers and engine builders left next year, Renault (its 2014 "power unit" is pictured), Mercedes-Benz and Ferrari are so embedded that it would stretch belief to think they'd leave the table over an audio hiccup - if said hiccup even occurs. And frankly, these issues always precede changes to engine formulas, as they did when the formula switched from V10 to V8; fans, though, are probably less focused on the engines and more on the mandated standardization of the sport and the spec-series overtones that have come with it.
No one knows yet what next year's engines will sound like, but we've assembled a few videos below to help us all start guessing. The first is an engine check on an Eighties-era John Player Special Renault with a 1.5-liter V6 turbo, after that is Ayrton Senna qualifying in 1986 in the Lotus 98T that also had a 1.5-liter V6 turbo, then you'll find a short with a manufactured range of potential V6 engine notes, and then the sound of turbocharged V6 Indycars testing last year at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Any, or none of them, could be Formula One's future.
