1999 Mercedes-benz Sl500 Base Convertible 2-door 5.0l - Low Reserve on 2040-cars
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
|
Up for sale is a classic example of Mercedes Benz's R129 model. The overall exterior of the car is in very good condition with only one small chip on the hood and a scratch on the right front fender. There are no door dings on either of the sides and the bumper has no scratches. The paint has no signs of oxidation and looks as good in person as it does in pictures. The left front turn signal's bottom bracket is broken but very hard to notice unless you are up close and the light (turn signal) works just fine so I haven't replaced it. The left side mirror is faded and the rear view mirror's plastic frame is cracked but both still work and are not noticeable.
Mechanically the car is a great driver. Both the engine and transmission have no leaks and operate smoothly - No abrupt transmission shifts or clanking engine valves. A/C works very well and has no problem cooling the car despite 95+ Summer days. I replaced the alternator less than a week ago and all electronics work with the exception of the A/C fan direction gauge. Although it will blow A/C through the front vents, the diagram arrow will not appear. All aspects of the convertible work great - hard top, soft top, and bow (roll bar) extension. I've noticed a small leak of hydraulic fluid only after operating the convertible but that's to be expected on 15 yr old car. Unlike most convertible tops, this one shows no signs of the canvas fading or rear window blemishing from excessive sun exposure. See video of this car's soft top in action - http://youtu.be/vOPjDf-5hF4 All four tires are in good condition with roughly 75% tread life left on the rears and 60% left on the fronts. This is your chance to own a 90k + car at a fraction of the cost! Good luck bidding!! |

2013 Airstream Interstate 3500 EXT
Mon, 19 Aug 2013LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.
Mercedes-AMG teases GT interior, announces fall 2014 debut
Tue, 15 Apr 2014Mercedes-Benz opted to tease the assembled media at its post-New York Auto Show party, showing off a pair of images of the exquisitely crafted interior of the highly anticipated successor of the SLS AMG - the V8-powered Mercedes-AMG GT.
Slated for a debut in the fall at either Paris or Los Angeles (we're betting Paris), you'll note straight away that there's something wrong with this car's name. Where's the "Benz?" Well, it's been ditched to, as Mercedes says, "make the dream of the authentic Mercedes-AMG sports car come true." Sorry Karl.
"The new Mercedes-AMG GT proves that we will be positioning AMG as a dynamic sports car brand even more strongly and aggressively than before," said Tobias Moers, CEO of Mercedes-AMG.
Mercedes-AMG considering turbo fours, hybrid sixes for future performance sedans
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Think of the letters AMG and you'll probably end up picturing a performance sedan with a big V8. Such has become, after all, the Mercedes turning division's calling card. But with the introduction of its 2.0-liter turbo four, AMG is working at turning that notion on its head.
The highly potent engine produces 355 horsepower and is presently installed in the A45 AMG hatchback, CLA45 AMG sedan and GLA45 AMG crossover, giving Benz's smallest family a full range of performance models. But that might not be the full extent of the high-strung four-pot's use.
Speaking with AMG boss Tobias Moers, Britain's What Car? magazine reports that Affalterbach is considering slotting the same engine into larger models, particularly performance sedans like the C-Class. As we recently reported, Mercedes is already preparing to up the power from the turbo V6 in the C400 to slot a C450 Sport in below the C63 AMG. The C450 is expected to offer around 367 horsepower where the CLA45 AMG et al pack 355, but the lighter weight of the four-cylinder engine would likely offset the truancy of those extra dozen horses. Of course such a prospect would be much further down the pipeline than the C450 Sport which is expected to arrive much sooner.
