**FACTORY EXTENDED WARRANTY** **LOADED** **SINGLE OWNER** **FANTASTIC CONDITION** **PREPAID MAINTENANCE (NEXT REGULAR SERVICE)***

You are looking at a single-owner, non-smoker, lovingly cared for 2007 AMG E63 that is LOADED with both factory and hard to find aftermarket options.  Purchased and put into service in March 2007.  I am selling because I just bought a new Tesla and I do not have room for two cars.  Title is in my name only and is clear (loan paid off).

If you are looking at this listing, you may already know the basics about this wonderful car:

  • Car and Driver gave this car 1st place in the "bullet" performance sedan category (beating out the 2007 BMW M5 and Audi S6)
  • Its naturally aspirated 6.3L 8 cylinder engine achieves a neck snapping 465 pound-feet of torque at only 2000 RPMS and has an amazingly flat torque curve (507 horsepower)
  • 0-60 time of 4.2 seconds and a 1/4 mile time of 12.6 seconds (Car and Driver reported numbers - this car has never ssen the track)
  • Roomy E series size great for families
  • Massive trunk storage with fold down rear seats
FEATURES, OPTIONS AND ENHANCEMENTS

This car has virtually all available options factory installed including the "Preferred Package 2" (see above for details on included options).  In addition, I had the dealer install Midwest Engineering's remote start (which uses the standard Mercedes key and does not require a separate starter).  According to my dealer, this is the only remote start solution approved by Mercedes.  I have also had Midwest Engineering separately install a Parrot dual microphone bluetooth phone interface (the OEM module I had originally installed was terrible; the dual microphone Parrot has a noise elimination system that works wonders on conference calls), a backup camera that is integrated into the COMMAND LCD (activated when car is placed into reverse), and a custom installed top of the line Escort 9500ci radar/laser detector and laser scrambler (mounted on instrument cluster left of the steering wheel).  

I replaced the heavy OEM wheels with lightweight O.Z. Ultraleggera wheels, and the tires are Continental ExtremeContact DWS XL all-season ultra high performance (installed front November 2012, and rear February 2013).  I have been using the Conti ExtremeContact DWS tires since they first came out on my prior vehicle (a Maserati), and I have never needed to install winter tires (I live in Chicago and since switching to the Conti's never had a problem).  They are excellent performance tires, and the only all-seasons I have found that do well in heavier snow and ice.  Tread depth is like new 7/32

MAINTENANCE AND WARRANTY

In addition, I purchased the factory extended warranty when I purchased the car that extends the base warranty (e.g., it covers everything the original warranty covered).  This warranty is transferable to the buyer and expired in April of 2014!  Buy with confidence knowing that if anything should fail it will be fixed by any Mercedes dealer at no cost!  In addition, I have pre-paid maintenance that will cover the next regular maintenance interval (it is transferable and there is one remaining service interval that is unused).  

All required periodic maintenance was performed by the dealer (Loeber Motors), and I have all (very detailed) service records available.

Major maintenance items I have already paid for:

Tires (recent 7/32 tread depth like new)
Front and rear brake pads and rotors (January 2013)
Idler pulley and V Belt replacement (January 2013)
Engine mounts replaced (January 2013)
Transmission hydraulic control unit replaced and transmission and valve body removed, inspected and repaired (December 2010)
... and many other smaller items

CONDITION

This vehicle is in outstanding condition with the minor exceptions noted below.  You will not find a nicer, cleaner, better cared for 2007 E63!  

Interior: the leather and wood grain interior is in like new condition.  There are no stains, holes, tears, rips, or noticeable scratches anywhere in the interior.  The driver side rear seat ashtray won't close (non-smoker; but my 5 year old played with it one too many times)

Exterior: (i) there are a number of door "pings" on the drivers side that are not visible at all unless you view the door from an extreme angle (pings are very shallow and smaller than a dime, no paint is chipped), (2) the lip on the front bumper (that is too close to the ground IMHO) is cracked- also not noticeable unless you squat down to see it, and (iii) there is a quarter sized ding on the rear trunk (this one is somewhat noticeable with the naked eye if you know to look for it, but cannot be seen on photos).  

The car has not been involved in any accidents at driving speeds.  The only accidents requiring repair have been cosmetic: (i) replacement of the front bumper (twice) as it is prone to catching on parking curbs and cracks very easily when snagged (as noted above, it is cracked yet again and I decided to just leave it be as the break is not noticeable and it does not cause any functional issues), (ii) the right rear passenger side quarter panel and door were "scraped" by a taxi cab pulling out of a parking spot and all damage was professionally repaired (there is no way to tell it was repaired from looking at it), and (iii) the same right rear quarter panel was scraped by me while parking (also professionally repaired and the panel and door removed and re-painted; the repair work is completely invisible to the naked eye).  These "accidents" in no way affect the performance or looks of the vehicle and the professional body shop repairs fully restored the original looks without blemish.  In addition, just to be sure, when I had my tires replaced in February I had a complete alignment performed and the alignment is well within OEM specifications (records available).

SELLING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

I am providing this vehicle with a Mercedes extended factory warranty through April of 2014.  Additionally the buyer will be entitled to the next scheduled maintenance (due in about 6,000 miles) free via the dealer (pre-paid).  I have all service records including a recent dealer inspection report.  I have provided all information about my car that I know and have documented every ping and problem that I know of.  In addition, I welcome any serious bidder who would like to test drive and/or have a mechanic's inspection performed (at your own expense, with a copy of the report to be provided to me as well).  Buying this car you are getting great peace of mind as virtually anything that can go wrong will be covered under the factory warranty, excluding wear and tear/ordinary maintenance items that are not covered under the original factory warranty of course; and further the next scheduled maintenance is already paid for so even many of those ordinary maintenance items are covered as well!  

With those protections, the car will be sold AS IS.  If you need to purchase with financing, please provide a copy of your approved financing as well as a statement from your lender detailing closing, payment, title and transfer requirements BEFORE YOU BID.  I will be happy to review and may need to contact your lender; when I sold my last car (a Maserati) on ebay, I did work with a lender for the buyer, and I am willing to do so again but I need to make sure that I am protected (for example, I won't turn over the title and keys and wait 15-30 days for funds).  

The vehicle is located in the 60610 area code of Chicago, Illinois.  Buyer is responsible for pickup of the vehicle at my location, as well as for payment of all fees and costs for taxes, title and license.  Please come prepared - do NOT ask me for use of my license plates, that is illegal in Illinois.  I WILL meet you at a location where you can get a temporary license if needed.  I will also be happy to work with the buyer to find transportation if you are located out of easy driving range.  I have purchased and sold 2 cars via ebay, and I would estimate shipping to be between $500 - $1200 for most states east of the Rocky Mountains, depending on the type of shipping service, insurance, and distance.  However, pickup and shipping is ultimately the buyer's responsibility. 



On Jul-05-13 at 11:40:20 PDT, seller added the following information:

RESERVE LOWERED - WITHIN SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS OF CURRENT BID!  


PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING REVISIONS/ADDITIONAL INFO:

(1) The manufacturer extended warranty expires on March 20, 2014 (not through April as I had thought) OR 100,000 miles, whichever comes first (and it is not "expired" as in the typo in the description)

(2) The prepaid maintenance can be used at any Mercedes-Benz dealer and should be used on the next scheduled maintenance before 74,000 miles; for clarification there only one service left on the prepaid maintenance plan and it must be used for scheduled maintenance

(3) The radar/laser detector/scrambler is an Escort 9500ci (not 9700ci)

(4) I have both keys and all OEM manuals

Race Recap: 2013 Japanese Grand Prix flips several scripts [spoilers]

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

Japan's Suzuka circuit is a great track that all the drivers love, but it doesn't usually provide the most thrilling, head-to-head racing. Where it does excel, however, is with surprises and "What just happened there?!" moments, and this year it was no different.
It started with Mark Webber in his Infiniti Red Bull Racing out-qualifying his teammate Sebastian Vettel for the first time this year. They were followed closely by Lewis Hamilton in the first Mercedes-AMG Petronas, the still-solid Romain Grosjean again outdoing teammate Kimi Räikkönen, Felipe Massa racing for another seat in Formula One and putting his Ferrari in fifth, then Nico Rosberg in the second Mercedes, Nico Hülkenberg in the first Sauber, Fernando Alonso in the second Ferrari, and Räikkönen continuing to do himself no favors by qualifying tenth.
For the second year in a row, the lights going out was the cue to start the first corner action...

Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013

Sun, 15 Sep 2013

When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.

Mercedes considering GLA-based crossover coupe

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

BMW opened a whole Pandora's Box when it introduced the X6 back in 2008. Sure it made little sense, sacrificing all that "utility" for a little more "sport," but it's been a solid success for BMW - especially considering the nominal expense it cost to develop the X6 on top of the X5 on which it's based. Little wonder that, while BMW has already followed up with a smaller version in the form of the X4, other automakers are starting to catch up. And that includes Mercedes-Benz.
The German automaker is preparing to launch a new MLC, based on the M-Class but with a sportier silhouette, and previewed it with the Concept Coupe SUV at the Beijing Motor Show. But that's just the start, according to the latest report from Automotive News Europe.
Mercedes is reportedly considering spinning off an entire line of crossovers more for use on the road than off it. Which may go without saying for most crossovers on the market, but considering the Geländwagen with which Mercedes got its start in SUVs, would mean an even further departure than it has undertaken already.
