Sugar Land, Texas, United States

For sale is a 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster with 56k original miles.  It is silver/grey paint with a matching removable hard top and a black soft top.  This car is in excellent condition, especially considering that it is all original except for the radio head unit, which has been updated.  The car runs and drives great and starts up perfectly every time.  It has worked well as a daily driver for the last year and will continue to be reliable.

Some features include:
Power windows
Power brakes
Power steering
Power brakes
Power antenna
Leather seats
Leather steering wheel
Both hard and soft top
Hard top wheeled stand and cover
Removable rear seat
Alloy wheels
Clock
Outside thermometer
Fog lights

Recent updates:
New rear brakes
New shocks
New fuel distributor
New fuel injectors
New A/C system (including climate control unit)
Transmission tune up

Although the car is in excellent overall condition, there are a few imperfections which are relatively minor and detailed in the photos.  The paint on the wheels is starting to peel from the aluminum.  There is a tear along a seam of the passenger seat.  There are some paint chips on the top of the car, near the trunk hinge.  There is also one small crack in the dashboard.

I purchased the car about a year ago at an auction for classic cars and it has been used as a daily driver since then.  An AutoCheck report indicates that there were three previous owners.  I've had a lot of fun in it, but I'm selling the car to replace it with a more fuel efficient vehicle.  I'm constantly getting compliments from strangers who admire the car, and it always wins an award when I take it to car shows.


It is evident by the cleanliness of the engine bay and the undercarriage that this car has lived an easy life and has been meticulously maintained.  It performs and handles beautifully.  As far as I know, this car has never been in an accident (there is no evidence of an accident).  The sheet metal and frame are straight and rust free.

The car is available for inspection by appointment. I have stated the condition of the car to the best of my ability but the vehicle is sold as is with no express or implied warranties or representations having been made by the seller to the buyer.  Please feel free to e-mail me through eBay with any questions.  I will not release the car until all payments have cleared. Buyer is responsible for shipping.

First official shot of Mercedes S-Class Coupe leaks out

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

With the official debut for the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe expected tomorrow, it shouldn't be a surprise that some clicky fingers have already managed to uncover an official image of the car before the unveiling. Outside of this sole image, though, there's precious little detail on the new car.
First posted by Autofilou and then picked up by WorldCarFans, the production S-Class Coupe isn't far off from the concept car we saw a few months back in Frankfurt. Like the concept, the leggy production model appears related, albeit distantly, to the S-Class Sedan. The hood and front fascia are longer and lower, befitting of a two-door, while the character lines in the profile are more pronounced. Obviously, the beltline and slim, B-pillarless greenhouse are coupe-only items. We can't see any details on the back of the car, although it does appear that the long hood has a correspondingly short rear deck.
We'll have all the details on the official replacement for the CL-Class when it makes its full debut tomorrow. Until then, what do you think of this lone image? Does it appear that Mercedes has got it right? In terms of design, where would you rank this with the departing CL-Class? Have your say in Comments.

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.

2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT Coupe

Thu, 31 Jan 2013


Mercedes-Benz upgraded its SLS flagship Coupe and Roadster for the 2013 model year, and the changes are marked with them new "GT" nomenclature. Both SLS models arrive with a retuned naturally aspired 6.2-liter V8 delivering 583 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque (the horses are up from 563, but the torque remains the same) mated to a revised seven-speed AMG Speedshift dual-clutch gearbox. Rounding out the mechanical upgrades is a redeveloped AMG two-mode adaptive suspension. Physically, the revised models are differentiated by their new "GT" badging, darkened headlight/taillight buckets, red brake calipers, unique wheel colors and high gloss finish on the front grille, exterior mirrors and hood/fender fins. Inside the cabin are new red seatbelts, Alcantara upholstery and contrasting red stitching.
As it is nearly impossible to experience the aluminum gullwing beast on public roads, Mercedes invited out to Southern California's Willow Springs to wring out the 2013 SLS GT Coupe on a racing circuit.
