Mercedes R350 4matic Low Miles, One Owner, Factory Warranty, Excellent Condition on 2040-cars

Year:2008 Mileage:57876
Location:

Del Mar, California, United States

Del Mar, California, United States

2008 R350 4matic. 57,000 miles, one owner. Always garaged.  Detailed often.

Very well maintained, recent full service, synthetic oil changes every 4000 miles.  I have all the service records since day one. 

Recent Michelins ($1200 - top of the line all season) and Brakes ($1100 - pads and rotors and wear sensors, front and rear). 

Factory extended bumper to bumper warranty until 75,000 miles or Nov. 15, 2015.  I confirmed the warranty transfers to a new owner.  It has a $50 deductible - although San Diego Mercedes Benz has not charged me the deductible.

Very roomy - 6 footers fit comfortably in the third row.

No accidents. The car is in amazing condition but I encourage you inspect the car before purchase. Some dings and scratches but very good shape in and out.  One scratch on right rear, one fog light cracked (works fine), one ding right side (see picture), scratch on right side, one touched up scratch left rear.  Wheels have some minor curb rash.  Paint and trim overall is in incredible condition.  Right rear window rubber trim has dog bite teeth marks about half inch long, interior has several faint stains if you look really hard.  The front right marker light bulb is out - it is not the turn signal, just a corner marker.  I will replace the bulb if I find the time, but I may not get to it.

Loaded - 7 Seating option.  Heated seats, sunroof, power everything, Bluetooth phone, Harmon Kardon Logic 7 digital stereo with subwoofer, Satellite radio, hidden IPod connection, tire pressure monitor, Homelink, Parktronic, Steering wheel shifting, steering wheel cruise and stereo control.  Airbags everywhere, etc. No navigation. 

Great car, decent gas mileage (17.8 overall since new.  We get 21-22 on highway trips). Title in hand. 

I bought a diesel GL350 Mercedes so I can tow a trailer.  This has been a tremendous family car, and I bought the closest thing I could find to replace it.

The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction if sold locally.

I have been asked how I arrived at the minimum bid.  Carmax gave me a written offer of $16,000 but could not offer any "value" for the year and a half of factory warranty because they said they cannot stand behind it since it is not their own warranty.

Mercedes testing C-Class plug-in hybrid modes in Germany

Wed, 07 May 2014

Testing appears to be underway for what would be the first Mercedes-Benz C-Class with a hybrid powertrain. We can see a pair of the prototypes undergoing testing in Germany, with one, a C-Class Wagon, still heavily clad in camouflage and featuring a more noticeable outlet on the passenger side of its rear bumper.
There's also a more production-looking sedan, which features a not-so-discreet flap over its rear-bumper outlet. It's difficult to speculate on power outputs for this fuel-sipping C-Class, although our spies seem to think that this car will feature some combination of a four-cylinder gas engine with an electric motor, although just which four is unclear (note, we wouldn't mind if MB fit its 2.0-liter turbo with some batteries and motors). Regardless, the four-pot/electric motor seems like a pretty reasonable combo, although it probably means that Mercedes won't be challenging the six-cylinder-powered system of the BMW ActiveHybrid3 any time soon.
When the plug-in C-Class arrives later this year as a 2015 model, it will likely offer a full range of driving modes, including both gas or electric, only, as well as a more traditional hybrid mode.

Mercedes-Benz introduces new heavy security M-Class Guard model

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Mercedes-Benz has unveiled a new addition to the company's line of personal security vehicles. The M-Class Guard features bullet-proof side windows made with special laminated glazing and a polycarbonate inner layer to protect occupants from shards of glass. Mercedes says the M-Class Guard meets protection level VR4 according to the Bullet Resistant Vehicles 2009 standards, based on testing from the independent Ulm-based Ballistics Bureau, which means it can withstand .357 Magnum and .44 fire from multiple angles. It can also stand up to the DM51 hand grenade when equipped with optional floor armoring. Why skimp?
Buyers looking for protection from the world's literal slings and arrows can opt for the ML350 BlueTEC with its 258 horsepower 3.0-liter turbodiesel engine. With 457 pound-feet of torque, the oil-burner should have no trouble hustling the privileged class about. Of course, the ML500 offers a bit more punch courtesy of a 4.6-liter twin-turbo V8 with 408 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque. Prices start at 105,050 euros for the diesel and 118,650 euros for the V8. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

Mercedes to roll out C63 AMG late in 2014 with 4.0L V8

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

The new 2014 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is upon us, launching initially in North America with turbocharged four-cylinder C300 4Matic and six-cylinder C400 4Matic flavors. But that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg when it comes to the vast array of powertrain configurations that will be offered in the new C-Class in markets around the world. Orders will soon be rolling in for gasoline, hybrid and diesel engines with four, six or eight cylinders, driving the rear wheels or all four, with the seven-speed automatic transmission soon to be replaced by a new nine-speed unit. But what enthusiasts are really looking forward to is the next C63 AMG.
As BMW has done with the M3 (and new M4), Mercedes has gradually ratcheted up the cylinder count in its AMG C-Class, graduating from the 3.6-liter V6 in the original C36 AMG to the 4.3-liter V8 in the C43 AMG, then the 5.5-liter V8 in the C55 AMG before going the distance with the sublime 6.2-liter V8 in the C63 AMG. Like its rivals, Mercedes is expected to use turbochargers as a replacement for displacement in the next model, but unlike its Bavarian rival, it won't be losing any cylinders in the process.
Skipping the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 that has gone on to power other AMG models, the next C63 AMG is still expected to introduce a new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing between 450 and 500 horsepower. It'll also reportedly keep the same seven-speed automatic transmission (instead of switching to the new nine-speed), but the jury's still out on whether it'll come with rear- or all-wheel drive (or offer buyers the choice). The downsized V8 - codenamed M177 - is then expected to find its way into other models, but the C-Class will be the first to get it when it arrives before the end of the new year ahead.
