Here you go folks, a 1985 Mercedes 500 SEC for your consideration. This Mercedes is perfect for the Mercedes lover who's been looking for a 500 SEC to tinker around with while still driving it. The paint appears to have been done by a non-professional, and a few door dings, etc., that were repaired could of had a little more time spent on them. Black paint is one of the hardest jobs to sell, but look killer on anything! The front bumper must have barley tapped something and provided a few cracks as pictured. Overall, a great 50 footer, but nothing a little elbow grease and paint won't fix! :)

The interior seats are real nice, and someone had the entire interior leather dyed to freshen it up, which looks great. A little bit of overspray on some interior pieces needs to be cleaned up. Dash pad is perfect with no cracks. Carpet is good, but with a little bit of shampooing, will look even better! All windows work, except the passenger rear window (may just be the switch). Right side mirror has to be adjusted manually.The front windshield has a small 2" crack in the upper passenger corner, but passed inspection. All lights work, horn works, stereo works (6 CD changer in trunk, antenna doesn't go up or down). AC seems to blow cool, but may need to be recharged. Power seats also work, as well as the sun roof.

This V8 Mercedes runs and shifts like a beast! Transmission shifts as it should, and the engine "getty ups" when giving her some gas. The engine could use a tune up however, as it idles a little rough. Car has been sitting for awhile, as the owner has three of these. The engine cooling fan runs all the time while the engine is running, but the car does not run hot. So assume the thermostat switch may need to be changed out.

The owner just had the vehicle VA State Inspected in July 2013. She also had 4 brand new Continental 205/65/15 tires put on. The following repairs were also made in July; engine steam cleaned, replaced license plate light bulb, and fixed right side marker light, replaced brake strut bushings, replaced rear sway bar stands. A lot of money just put in it to get it inspected.

So, if your looking for a car that was approx $80K back in the day, here's a nice project to pick up and with a few weekends of TLC, will be a great car to own! Good luck.

CES 2022 was huge for EVs | Autoblog Podcast #711

Fri, Jan 7 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. CES took place this week, and there were some nice electric surprises from automakers, especially General Motors. John has been driving the Ram 1500 Power Wagon, as well as what seems to be its polar opposite, the electric Mini Cooper SE. Greg talks about the differences between the Acura TLX A-Spec long-termer (which is back in the shop) and the Type S loaner that's filling in for it. John's also got some interesting thoughts on leather interiors. Finally, the editors reach into the mailbag and help a repeat customer decide on a suitable replacement for a 2008 Lexus GX 470 in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Carlsson turns Mercedes-Benz SLK into 610-HP hill-climb clawer

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

Carlsson's race-tuned versions of the Mercedes-Benz SLK have been taking checkered flags for years, and we won't be surprised if its SLK 340 hill climber fares any different. Developed by multiple German and Swiss hill climb champion Reto Meisel, the carbon-bodied SLK 340 with lightweight brakes and a closed underbody weighs 1,716 pounds. Propelling that tiny bit of weight is a 3.4-liter V8 from Judd with 610 horsepower, and it rolls on 18-inch wheels shod in Avon tires.
It will debut at the Geneva Motor Show before beginning its racing campaigns in the summer. This one won't just tear up roads in Europe, though - Meisel says he plans on bringing it to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The press release below has more details.
