1970 - Mercedes-benz 300-series on 2040-cars
Bradenton Beach, Florida, United States
For sale is a wonderful example of legendary Mercedes 300 SEL 6.3, MB factory code W109 E63, mother of all modern AMG 63-series. Sought after combination of electric sunroof and air-condition. Repainted 2011 in classic navy-blue colour code 904. First stamp in warranty book made by a Las Vegas Mercedes dealer in April 1970. Performance still pretty surprising for unexperienced drivers. Automatic gearbox including "kick-down" is working accurately. I only used kick-down at a speed of 50 mph in order to be nice to drivetrain. Still running 220 km/h on German Autobahn representing 137 mph. Car comes with 5 Fuchs-alloys in correct size of 6,5'' x 14'' and 5 Michelin XWX tires. 4 additional factory steel wheels equipped with 195/70 winter tires. I purchased this car from a collector in California in 2010 with 55.000 miles (odometer) and took it to Germany for a deeper technical restoration. The interior has been done completely in the U.S. before shipping. - new leather seats, armrests, B-columns and lower window-frame in blue leather OEM-quality - new velours carpets and isolating mats underneath - new headliner - grey alcantara interior for glove-box - restoration of all Macassar ebony wooden parts (dashboard, door trim, window-trim) at Madera Concept in Santa Barbara This mechanically excellent Mercedes was rust-free when I purchased it, so only a few conversions to European standard had to be made e.g. removing sidemarkers and license plate lights. In 2010 a thorough mechanical inspection has been made at HK-Engineering (specialized on 300 SL coupés and roadsters) followed by restoration and maintenance works on - fuel injection pump (full restoration with galvanized parts including detailled report) - renewal of water pipes - engine valve adjustement - oil-maintenance of axles and gearbox - air condition with refill of modern-standard liquid All cylinders with good compression (report can be shown). Only 2.000 miles driven after restoration. Air bellows are in good shape; main air valve (engine compartment) will be done before shipping. I have to let this beauty go for lack of time and space and decided to offer it back to the US-collector's market. It has seen Mercedes Benz plant in "Sindelfingen" twice in it's life: 1970 and 2010. I can assist with shipping, however all costs for shipping, handling and tax must be carried by buyer. If you need further information and pictures, please don't hesitate to ask !

The Mansory Speranza proves that money can buy taste and good sense...
Tue, 05 Mar 2013...Just kidding.
No one in their right mind has ever accused German tuners Mansory of being subtle. So, when our Geneva team wandered across the Mansory Speranza - A Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen that has been denuded of its roof and spackled inside with quilted leather and red carbon fiber - they didn't ask a lot of existential questions. Why does the Speranza exist? Because Germans are weird sometimes, that's why.
Forget for a moment that you'll have to pay Mansory hundreds of thousands of euros (we're guessing, no pricing information has been revealed) for the privilege of converting your G-Class into something that looks like a Suzuki Samurai, and prepare to be impressed by the details. The tuning house has increased the output of the Mercedes V8 to a healthy 700 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque. The wheels are 24-inches, and wear almost unbelievable 305-section ultra-high performance Vresdestein tires. Carbon fiber can be found nearly everywhere one looks, including making up the housing for the spare tire. Oh, and there are leather pillows for the backseats... no word on whether they're standard or optional, but we're looking in to it.
Mercedes-Benz GLK coupe to get 2016 intro
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Radio chatter around the emerging small, premium crossover coupe genre has thus far been dominated by the Land Rover Evoque and the Mini Paceman. According to a report in Car, the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class (shown above) has received its invitation to the party and will spend the next three years getting ready: it's said that two-door variant of the crisply-angled CUV is coming in 2016, along with a redesign befitting its sleeker intentions.
To be based on the MRA platform - the rear-drive version of the company's three new modular platforms, it will also support the coming 2013 S-Class and could eventually get an AMG version to help it compete with segment offerings like the forthcoming Porsche Macan. Not much else is known about it beyond its name: Car says it will be called the GLC, a friendly nomenclature we remember best as a Mazda hatchback (allegedly for "Good Little Car"). Internet oldtimers may remember the Mazda GLC as the predecessor to the 323 (which in turn came before today's Mazda3). Either way, the GLC is not to be confused with the larger upcoming BMW X6 rival based on the ML-Class (reportedly called GLS) which is also said to still be in the works, or the front-drive based GLA, a model also edging toward production.
2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Make way for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG, the most wonderfully preposterous car I have ever driven.
There is absolutely no reason why any two-seat roadster should be fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 developing 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, but I sure am glad that Mercedes-Benz doesn't see things that way.
Drop into the leather-lined cockpit of this $213,145 provocateur, floor the accelerator pedal as I did over and over again, and 60 miles per hour falls in a traction-limited 3.9 seconds. Top speed has been electronically held to 186 mph (this apparently saves Gulfstream jet owners from embarrassment). Forget the SL550 and SL63 AMG, the valets will trip over themselves attending to the tycoon driving this thoroughbred - it's the real deal.
