Immaculate 1973 450 SE, classic and rare interior/exterior color combination. This car was purchased new by my father in 1973 and has been meticulously maintained, cared for, and garaged its entire life. He passed the car on to me and I have decided to sell it since I never drive it. Since I received it in 2008 I have put less than 1,500 miles on it. It is too nice to sit in a garage, it should be driven and enjoyed.
Power windows, sunroof, cruise control, A/C, and central locking system all work. The car is mechanically fit and there are no issues or repairs that need to be performed.
I have over 190 photos of the car on Fotki, under the album name "73 Mercedes 450 SE". To find them go to Fotki.com, in the upper menu bar select "search", then select "find members", enter the name "kgmslc2010", select "kgmslc2010", and then you will find the photo album on the right side of the page.
As the photos show the car is in great shape and has been well cared for. I tried to take several photos in various sunlight to make sure all aspects and condition of the car have been shown. There are some nicks and scratches which I photographed. For a 40 year old car it is in immaculate shape.
Here is a list of things I have repaired since I received it in 2008. New: windshield, starter, battery, tires, fan belts, cold start valve, and freon recharge in 2009.
In full disclosure the odometer on the car currently shows 122k miles. The original odometer worked intermittently, I replaced it with one that works, however it shows less than actual miles. I have documentation on the Utah inspection report from last year indicating the car had 158,540 miles, as of 5/25/2012. I drove the car less than 200 miles last year. I did not renew the registration this year.

2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA priced from $31,300*
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Mercedes-Benz has kindly let loose the price of the 2015 GLA-Class, telling Autoblog.com that the base 208-horsepower GLA250 in two-wheel drive will go for $31,300 *not including a destination charge of $925. That makes for $32,225 in total to get one off the lot, a price predicted as early as last year and in our recent First Drive. The other two available models can push power to all four wheels, and after the destination fee is applied the GLA240 4Matic (pictured) will be $34,225 while the 355-horsepower GLA45 AMG will change lives and wallets to the tune of $49,225.
On the base scale, that puts the GLA250 just a few hundred dollar bills above the more powerful, rear-wheel drive BMW X1 and a stack of hundreds below the less powerful, front-wheel drive Audi Q3. If you're keeping in-house score, the GLA250 comes in at $1,400 above its sedan platform-mate with the same engine, the CLA250. At the high end, however, the competition doesn't have anything that can touch the AMG trim. Not that it should matter all that much - Mercedes needed something to keep these buyers in the family, and now they have it. If any of them should need even more power and more money spent, then there's always that 394-hp Brabus flavor. We'll have more info and details on each trim when Mercedes unleashes the shebang in the not-too-distant future.
2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.
Mercedes to market Tesla-powered 2014 B-Class EV in U.S.
Thu, 05 Jul 2012Looks like another Tesla Motors investor will be looking to cash in on their connection. Autoweek reports Mercedes-Benz will offer their B-Class in the U.S. with Tesla propulsion.
The magazine says their source at the German automaker confirms plans for a B-Class electric-only vehicle. While Tesla already provides battery packs for the battery-powered Smart ForTwo, the B-Class EV will reportedly have Tesla batteries, motor and other components. U.S. residents should be able to procure one sometime in 2014.
The same Mercedes source says plans for a hybrid B-Class have been postponed for now. Adding a range-extending, gasoline-powered engine to an electric vehicle would put the car into a different class for which rebates and incentives aren't as favorable in the States.
