Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Starts stops and drives well, recent rebuild to engine and trans, usual signs of age, sunroof, one window, dash lights need repair, etc. Good interior, good body with one minor damage area on fender, nice color combination."

NOTE as os Sunday 9/29 7pm PST: VIN listed in auction, was mistaken it is not for this car- I will correct this mistake as soon as EBay tells me how. Title is clear, it has had 3 titled owners so far....no accident history.

This is a dependable, fun, modern classic, in good 'daily driver' condition needing a little TLC. As one of only 1200 or so 1985 Coupes made, and the last year of this famous series, it is a very collectable Benz. 1985 also saw one-yaer only improvements to the famous diesel drivetrain, including better rear end gearing for better highway mileage and improved shifting.

Positives are the body and mechanics: Body has decent paint, in very good looking and rare original Anthracite Gray metallic color (code 172) and no visible signs of panel or floorpan rust. All trim is present and it has Bosch Euro headlights. With 270K on the engine I am told the prior owners had the engine and trans rebuilt and given the great oil pressure and good power, this appears to be true. All mechanicals appear to be in good working order except as listed below. The Palomino interior in reasonable good shape. Headliner is perfect, 3 of 4 windows work well, rear glass is original and in nice shape- Dashboard has only a tiny crack, nothing that is truly noticeable. Stops, starts, runs well. All chromes and lenses present and in good shape.Aftermarket CD player gives good sound.

Negatives on the cosmetics are are the typical very dried rubber around the doors; one upward bend at the lower edge of the front fender (pictured) from a road hazard, and a stone chip in the windshield (not large, no spidering). Not working: Tach, cruise, some of the dashboard lights, driver rear 1/4 window, and sunroof motor. Visors and first aid kit, typical cracks, a couple of small tear/age spots on driver seat. Anyone is welcome to come and inspect/drive it (not licensed, but can move up and down my driveway) anytime. Car is garaged, in central/coastal NJ near Sandy Hook (zip 07732) on Route 36 in Highlands.

I bought this car recently intending to a drive and restore over time but just bought a pristine model so this one now is looking for a good home. I have a clear PA title in hand ready for the next owner (It has two prior long term owners, before me). I am asking a reasonable price for a quick sale and don't want to lose too much money on it. Because of the new car I will soon be out of garage space, and this one needs to go soon. Please email with any question. Car is sold as is, where is, andto try to cover my costs, but willing to listen to Best Offers. Looking for fast sale, & it must be driven away within 2 weeks of sale. Thanks for looking!

Boston bombers were tracked using Mercedes mbrace [w/video]

Sun, 28 Apr 2013

We now know Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the two brothers said to be behind the Boston Marathon bombings, planned to head for New York City to detonate more improvised explosive devices. As it turns out, that plan was foiled by the quick thinking of one Mercedes-Benz owner, diligent police work and the Mercedes-Benz mbrace system. When the brothers carjacked a 26-year-old Chinese entrepreneur identified only as "Danny," they didn't realize his Mercedes-Benz M-Class was equipped with the mbrace system, which can call for help in the event of an accident or track the vehicle in the event of a theft.
According to reports, the Tsarnaev brothers held Danny hostage for nearly 90 minutes while they drove around Boston forming a plan until they had to stop for fuel. When one of the brothers went inside to pay, the other put his gun down for a moment. Danny took the opportunity to unlatch his seat belt, open the door and run to another nearby gas station, where he told the owner to call the police.
When police arrived, they used the mbrace system to track the SUV after receiving Danny's permission, and it wasn't long before a shootout between police and the brothers ensued. When it was over, the eldest brother lay dead in the street. For more on the story, view the video report available below.

LA 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.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.
