Up for auction is an incredible collectors item. A 1990 Mercedes-Benz 500SL which belonged to the very famous actor Jack Nicholson. This was his personal car and he is the only owner on record along with the original title with his signature on it. For the record, Jack Nicholson's real name is John J Nicholson and this is public information even listed on Wikipedia. Therefore that is the name which appears on the title which is pictured below. It was Jack's car and stored in his garage until last year when he sold it to a friend of his which is a collector. Now the car is for sale to the public here on ebay and with NO RESERVE price. It will go to the highest bidder which is also responsible for arranging any shipping or delivery.

The car is in very good condition and is very clean both inside and out. It's always been a California car and has no rust. It has never been in any accidents and still bares the original factory paint. Everything in the car is great working order. No mechanical problems or leaks of any kind. No electrical problems. All of the service is up to date. It does not require any repair. The leather and carpeting in good condition. No holes or rips on the leather or ware and tare on the carpets. The top easily comes off and the process is fully automatic. Once the hardtop is off, the soft top also retracts and closes automatically and is in good working order. No holes or tares anywhere in the soft top and the see-through areas are in pristine condition with no fading, cracking, or misty areas at all. The soft top does not leak or rattle.

Also included in the auction is the hardtop along with the whole hoist mechanism with pulleys and brace which holds the hardtop when it's off the vehicle. It's a great way to store the hard top in your garage so its out of the way and will not get scratched when removing it. It's usually mounted right above where you store the car and can easily be lowered or raised right from or directly back on to the car.

This SL500 has a 5.0 V8 engine. It's fully loaded and has all the options along with some added features. Some of them include an aftermarket audio system with head unit with XM radio and amplifier which is all wired and connected to the head unit with out any visible wires. The tires have plenty of tread on them. The air conditioning and heat both work very well, remote keyless entry and alarm also are functioning properly. No squeaking, rattling, or any kind of noises. It runs quiet and is very responsive with plenty of power and excellent handling.

Clean California title in hand, only 67,236 original miles on the car, California registration expired in January of 2014, a full carfax report outlining the full history of the car is pictured below. Buyer is responsible for pickup and or shipping. A $500 deposit is due 24 hours of auction end and the remainder must be satisfied via certified cashiers check or cash.

Mercedes FWD platform to last until 2018, convertible and two-seater future uncertain

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz seems to be expecting a lot of success from its front-wheel-drive CLA-Class. Automotive News is reporting that the sub-C-Class sedan could grow when its second generation arrives in 2018.
The current FWD platform for MB underpins the CLA, the B-Class, the GLA-Class, and the A-Class. The B-Class will arrive in North America as an EV for spring of 2014, while the production GLA crossover will arrive three to four months after that. The five-door A-Class won't be crossing The Pond. Sad faces all around.
According to AN, another model will be based on the front-drive architecture, but it won't be coming to the US market. Set to arrive next year, rumors are that it'll be a wagon version of the CLA, sort of like the ill-named five-door CLS Shooting Brake that is also a Europe-only item.

Which car should win 2015 World Green Car of the Year?

Wed, Apr 1 2015

There were three finalists for the World Green Car of the Year announced about a month ago at the Geneva Motor Show: the BMW i8, the Mercedes-Benz S 500 Plug-In Hybrid and the Volkswagen Golf GTE. With the New York Auto Show upon us and the winner scheduled to be announced tomorrow, we thought it's high time to ask our readers which one should win. There were seven other vehicles named to the finalists list: the Hyundai x35/Tucson Fuel Cell, the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, the Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron, the BMW X5 xDrive40e, the Kia Soul EV, the Nissan e-NV200 and the Opel Adam 1.0 Direct Injection Turbo ecoFLEX Start. Would you have named one of these to the top three list instead? POLL 14386429 Green BMW Mercedes-Benz Volkswagen 2015 ny auto show world green car of the year vw golf gte

2016 Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S Coupe 4Matic brings big power to go with massive name

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Mercedes-Benz hopped into the luxury crossover coupe market with both feet with the recently debuted GLE-Class Coupe. While the existence of beauty in this segment is still up for debate, the Merc really gives the BMW X6 a direct competitor. With the newly unveiled 2016 Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S Coupe 4Matic, the engineers from Affalterbach are now also turning their sights on their rivals from BMW's M division. Don't let the name fool you. The GLE63 AMG Coupe eschews the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 from the C63 AMG in favor of an even bigger power source. This crossover uses the company's thundering 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8 with stop/start that pumps out 577 horsepower and 561 pound-feet of torque – 10 hp and 8 lb-ft more than the X6 M. The deep well of muscle means the sprint to 62 miles per hour takes just 4.2 seconds; faster than you can say the coupe's mile-long official name. The AMG Speedshift Plus 7G-Tronic seven-speed automatic gearbox routes all of that grunt to all four wheels with a 40:60 front/rear split. The styling of this beast gets a special nod from AMG by being the first CUV from the company to get its A-wing grille. Even if the rest of the design can be polarizing, this portion looks fantastic. The airfoil in the bumper is supposed to look like a stylized A, and from some angles, the wing almost appears like its just floating there. Each side of the GLE63 features black wheel arch flares, and around back there's a small lip spoiler on the tailgate. It's complimented by a new rear apron that has air outlets at each corner, integrated tailpipes and a diffuser in the center. Being a Mercedes-AMG, buyers sit in the lap of luxury inside. The seats are covered in Nappa leather with AMG crests on the headrests. The performance brand's moniker can also be found on the three-spoke steering wheel, and the instrument panel even gets covered in black Nappa. Obviously, if this isn't enough for potential buyers, Mercedes has a ton of options on hand. They include performance-oriented items like a sport exhaust system, 22-inch wheels and carbon fiber engine cover, but there're also more opulent choices like the fragrance mister and a high-end Bang & Olufson sound system. Scroll down for all the details on the much more powerful GLE Coupe. The new Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S Coupe 4MATIC Driving performance reinterpreted Affalterbach/Detroit.
