Up for grabs is a 2001 Mercedes S500 with clean title. It starts without a hiccup, drives smooth and transmission auto-shifts like butter.
- The Radio/Navigation is not coming on anymore (since battery replacement earlier in September). It may be something as little as a burnt-out fuse or loose wire(s) in the back. A Mercedes service advisor stated over the phone that the system needs to be reset after the installation of the new battery. In the worst case scenario, original replacement units are available on eBay for under $170, or you may buy an awesome after market touchscreen unit with iPad connection, Bluetooth, CD/DVD/MP3, 2D and 3D GPS navigation, steering wheel control, AUX, SD and USB options for under $660. That's if the problem is a lot more than a fuse or reset.
- Cracked/broken plastic-trim on the driver seat (as shown in one of the images). It does NOT affect the functionality and/or movement of the seat; the seat moves in all directions with the directional controls. You may get a replacement trim from a junk-yard for next to nothing (perhaps $50), if it becomes an eyesore ;-)
- Scratches/scuffing on the front and rear bumpers (as shown in images)
- Scratch below the passenger door (as shown in two images)
- Missing Mercedes emblem on rear passenger wheel (costs approx $20)
- Needs new wipers (costs approx $30)
- The car was professionally detailed recently in September (and the carpets are still in the trunk)
- The battery was replaced earlier in September
- The overall exterior (with the exception of scratches mentioned above) and the interior (except driver seat trim) are very good for the age of the vehicle
- The value of this car, according to Kelley Blue Book (KBB), is:
- $8,692 Retail Excellent Condition
- $6,967 Private Party Excellent Condition
- $6,617 Private Party Very Good Condition
- $6,382 Private Party Good Condition
- Depending on the level of how picky one is, most would rate this car as in a very good to excellent condition

Mercedes Concept GLA45 AMG is ready to run
Wed, 20 Nov 2013This is the Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA45 AMG, and what we mean by that is, "This is the Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG." Mercedes has just unveiled the liveried 'concept' at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, giving potential customers a very good look at the newest lunatic in the AMG asylum - a 355-horsepower, 332-pound-foot crossover that uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the CLA45 AMG and Europe's A45 AMG.
Joined with a seven-speed, AMG Speedshift dual-clutch transmission and an AMG Performance 4Matic all-wheel-drive system, Mercedes promises a sub-five-second run to 60 miles per hour. That's not just quick for a crossover, that's quick full stop.
That sleek, lifted body has also been tweaked by the minds at AMG's Affalterbach facility. A new rear spoiler, side sills and front clip are the primary aerodynamic tweaks. Aesthetically, AMG has fitted the requisite "Turbo" badges, gloss-black accents (including exhaust tips and roof rails) and a set of 21-inch, AMG-spec alloy wheels to round out the overall package. Based on the spy shots we've seen, expect slightly toned down aerodynamics when the GLA45 AMG arrives in showrooms.
Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept crossover leaked ahead of Shanghai debut
Wed, 17 Apr 2013With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension.
Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014.
Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.
Mercedes FWD platform to last until 2018, convertible and two-seater future uncertain
Mon, 22 Jul 2013Mercedes-Benz seems to be expecting a lot of success from its front-wheel-drive CLA-Class. Automotive News is reporting that the sub-C-Class sedan could grow when its second generation arrives in 2018.
The current FWD platform for MB underpins the CLA, the B-Class, the GLA-Class, and the A-Class. The B-Class will arrive in North America as an EV for spring of 2014, while the production GLA crossover will arrive three to four months after that. The five-door A-Class won't be crossing The Pond. Sad faces all around.
According to AN, another model will be based on the front-drive architecture, but it won't be coming to the US market. Set to arrive next year, rumors are that it'll be a wagon version of the CLA, sort of like the ill-named five-door CLS Shooting Brake that is also a Europe-only item.
