Truly One of a Kind!

Amazing Condition

Stops people in their tracks

This car means business!

This 2008 CLS550 was owned by a young doctor's wife who rarely left the garage with it.   And when she did drive it, she drove like an old lady.    Now, it's ready for action.

She sold it when she divorced Dr. Husband and when it left her hands, the new owner quickly turned this into a man's car like no other.

The standard glossy black paint was upgraded to a an impressively original flat black (like a matted charcoal color), and it draws crowds and questions at every stop.  Whether at the gas pumps or at the evening outing, men and women alike always have to ask about it.

It looks like a boss rapper or an all-star pro athlete's ride, and it somehow fits in at the symphony valet lot and also the Harley rider's bar just the same.   

While the doctor's wife may never have realized this, the 382 horsepower aluminum V8 easily rockets to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds and it seems like no strain at all.  It's too easy to speed in this car because it handles so beautifully.

The high performance Parelli tires snug up to the 18" 7-spoke alloy wheels with precision, and the bright red brakes look like a subtle, yet mean accent.

This car spent most of its time in the garage when the doctor's wife owned it, and now its odometer reads around 46,600 but if you look at the trunk, the seats, and the carpet, you can see how this car looks like it just left the custom showroom.

Clean Carfax report available upon request.  Report was purchased by seller on May 14, 2013.

Heated and vented seats, an electronic trunk closer, tire pressure monitoring system, and an anti-theft alarm that disables the engine are all part of this impeccable package.

Now owned by an individual in Houston, Texas where it can be viewed or you can set up a test drive (contingent on background check).

Scammers don't bother.   Seller has a lengthy law enforcement background, and will locate and prosecute criminals.

As equipped, this car's sticker was $73,000 when it was bought but that was before the engine cowlings were upgraded for show and the paint was upgraded to what you see here.

Just look at how the Mercedes emblems are dark and the windows tinted to finish off this amazing detail.

Let me know any questions or whether you want any other pictures.

All catalogues and owners manuals are included in the factory leather zipper case.

2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

Make way for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG, the most wonderfully preposterous car I have ever driven.
There is absolutely no reason why any two-seat roadster should be fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 developing 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, but I sure am glad that Mercedes-Benz doesn't see things that way.
Drop into the leather-lined cockpit of this $213,145 provocateur, floor the accelerator pedal as I did over and over again, and 60 miles per hour falls in a traction-limited 3.9 seconds. Top speed has been electronically held to 186 mph (this apparently saves Gulfstream jet owners from embarrassment). Forget the SL550 and SL63 AMG, the valets will trip over themselves attending to the tycoon driving this thoroughbred - it's the real deal.

Watch Schumacher's hot lap of N"urburgring in Mercedes F1 car

Fri, 31 May 2013

In advance of the Nürburgring 24-hour race last weekend, Mercedes-Benz put on a demonstration that had Michael Schumacher playing catch-up in a Formula One car against four examples of AMG metal. There were four cars sent off in staggered starts before Schumacher: an A45 AMG, E63 AMG 4Matic, SLS AMG Black Series, and an SLS AMG GT3 car. "Mr. Formula One," as the German television commentators call him, left three minutes after the SLS AMG GT3.
There are two videos of Schumacher's lap, the first is on-board footage - and even though there were several GoPros on the car the POV never cuts away from the front wing. You can hear the throttle and tell he's not pushing it, you can also tell how bumpy the track is. The second video is footage from the German Sport1 channel - with commentary in German - that shows all the cars taking off and takes the aerial view of proceedings. He looks to be going a lot faster in that one. You can compare and contrast yourself with the videos below.
Oh, and it's worth noting that, even with the likely restricted car, and the made-for-TV environment, Schumi turned in a quick lap. The nose camera shows the F1 car start to slow down on the back straight, near the start/finish line, right around the modern-length track record time of six minutes and eleven seconds.

Chris Harris and David Coulthard wring out a Mercedes Fintail at the N"urburgring

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

If there's one thing we've learned from the latest video from Drive, it's that the combination of Chris Harris and David Coulthard will produce some very quotable moments. Take this exchange, for example.
DC: "We are by some way the slowest."
CH: "But we're in a class of three cars, apparently."
