AMG Wheels, Fully Optioned! This week Canyon State Classics brings to market one of the best documented 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC Coupes on the Planet. This car is very special in several ways. It is a two owner car which has lived a very pampered life. This car is a very low production vehicle with only 5800 built worldwide in 1985. It also had a MSRP of over $60,000 when new and is fully loaded! This was THE big boy car to own in the 80's. This car was imported from Europe BRAND NEW in 1985 by original owner Mr. Richard Biederbeck of Phoenix, AZ. The car was imported by European Autohaus, who specialized in importing European Mercedes models here in Phoenix in the Mid 80s. This 500SEC was put through all US DOT regulations and rules and was officially sold on 10-14-1985 at which time the original owner even bought a service contract for the car! This car was his pride and joy and always received the best care and service. He sold the car to a close personal friend in 2001 who continued to show the love and care to this special car. Don't miss your chance to own the nicest SEC offered on eBay in a long time! The following is a list of options as this 500 SEC is currently equipped: -5.0L 245hp V8 Engine -4 Speed Automatic Transmission -Ice Cold A/C -Posi-Traction Rear End -Cruise Control -Power Windows -Power Door Locks -Power Antenna -Fog Lamps -Automatic Climate Control -Original Leather Interior -Power Sunroof -Power Seatbelt Arms -Upgraded Kenwood Premium CD The body on the
car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on
the car is finished in its original color of Anthracite Gray and is in very good
condition and has had one high quality repaint in its life. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back
and is solid as a rock as any well cared for garaged car should be. All chrome
trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape. The car looks as nice
as the day it rolled off the Mercedes lot. It just had a full detail done at a
cost of over $500 so this car looks spectacular! The car is accented by a high
dollar set of period correct AMG chrome wheels. They are wrapped in like new Michelin Performance Radials. The interior is in very nice original condition all around. The dash and door panels are in very nice condition with zero cracks or damage to be noted anywhere. The gray leather seats are all in very good condition and look almost new, which shows the quality of leather used in this car. All wood grain is in excellent condition with absolutely no cracks. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. The car also has nice coco-mat floor mats. All dials and controls function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully functional. The sound system is also very nice with the upgraded Kenwood CD sound system. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very clean and does have the original jack, tools, and the ORIGINAL spare tire and wheel. This car is all there and in excellent shape with all functions and accessories working as they should. Mechanically, this SEC runs GREAT! I have owned nearly 20 80's and 90's era Mercedes vehicles, and this car blows the doors off all of them! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives as good now as the day it rolled of the lot. The V8 engine is very quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The 5.0L V8 has been Mercedes workhorse engine for nearly 30 years, so you know it is just plain reliable. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 90mph, and is claimed to have a top speed of 140 MPH! The car was always regularly serviced every 4,000 miles and shows it in how flawless the car drives. The car is tight and right as any low mileage car should be with no current mechanical issues. This car is 100% fully documented with EVERY service receipt going back to 1985! I totaled up all the service receipts and over $30,000 has been spent maintaining this car over the last 30 years! The most recent owner just spent over $5000 doing a new timing chain, all new vac elements and wood panels in the dash, a 90k maintainence, new radiator, new power steering pump, all new shocks, and new brakes, and all new injectors! This is just the icing on the cake and pretty much every system on this car has been overhauled once other than an engine rebuild. The car will include ll original books, huge stack of receipts, custom car cover, original spare, jack, tools, euro-only warning triangle, as well as a trunk load of original Mercedes extra parts including hard to find euro spare parts. All in all, this is THE cleanest and nicest SEC that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.

Zetsche's CEO tenure extended through 2016 at Daimler
Sun, 24 Feb 2013There appear to be two takes on Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche having his contract extended for three more years, to 2016. A report in The Detroit News quotes the chairman of Daimler's supervisory board, Manfred Bischoff, talking up the stability at the top, "With today's extensions of the contracts of Dieter Zetsche and Thomas Weber, we are maintaining the important continuity at the top executive level." Bischoff also stated that that Zetsche has a plan to "further enhance Daimler's overall performance."
Over at Reuters, though, the three-year extension was seen as a lack of complete confidence in Zetsche's plans, since his contract was supposedly meant to be extended by five years. A spokesman said the board decided to extend executive contracts by only three years if the person was 60 or would turn 60 during the contract, but that was news to observers. Zetsche wants to make Mercedes-Benz the top selling luxury manufacturer globally by 2020, but has fallen to third place behind Audi and BMW. It hasn't held the top spot 2005, and investors judged it valued at half that of BMW at the end of 2012 once Daimler's truck business was subtracted.
Analysts cites the fact that Daimler stock hasn't bested its rivals but twice in twelve years, and that the company revised its profit target downward last year by nearly one billion euros, warning of stagnant earnings this year and will miss its original margin target for 2013.
The Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 is pure electric excess
Fri, Aug 19 2016The Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 is a two-door, two-passenger coupe that spans over 18 feet long. Everything about this car is more than you need. But isn't that the true definition of ultimate luxury? With so much sheet metal, it can be tricky to get everything to look right, but Mercedes seems to have done nicely with this concept. Overall, the car's long nose and short deck are reminiscent of the Mercedes-AMG GT, and the long, tapering tail and lights are similar to that of the Mercedes-AMG Vision Gran Turismo concept from a few years ago. Capping off the front of the Mercedes-Maybach 6 is a proud, prominent grille that the company claims was inspired by a pinstripe suit. At each corner are 24-inch wheels with transparent panels based on the transforming, aerodynamic wheels of the Concept IAA Mercedes previously showed. Powering this massive coupe are four electric motors that can produce a combined 738 horsepower. Mercedes says that will be enough to get the car to 62 mph from a standstill in under 4 seconds. The motors are backed by an 80 kWh battery that the company says can propel the car up to 200 miles. Perhaps more interesting than its range is the fact that the Mercedes-Maybach 6 can pick up a charge worth 62 miles in just 5 minutes, assuming you've got the right charger. This is technology that could really make a difference in the day-to-day practicality of electric cars, provided that it makes it to reality. The car can be charged either by being plugged in, or wirelessly with an inductive charging system. Inside, the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 has even more fantastical features. It does retain analog gauges as a link to the past, but augments them with wrap-around glass trim that doubles as a display and touch-sensitive interface. The windshield seems to be pulled from Mission Impossible with its ability to display information. Sensors in the seats are designed to read the condition of the passengers and even their outfits to custom tailor everything from lighting to massage features. It's hard to say what the production odds are for this mega Mercedes, but you probably shouldn't hold your breath. Even for the rarified segment of seven-figure cars, this would be pretty extravagant. It wouldn't be impossible, or without precedent. Back when Maybach was still its own brand, the company created a ridiculous luxury coupe called the Exelero, and they sold the fully-functional car.
