Description

This is a rare opportunity. What you are about to read will be just as thrilling as the car itself. We are presenting to you at this auction a stunning 1995 Mercedes-Benz C36 AMG. The inline 6 cylinder 4 valve engine is based on the C280, however, it has a 1.1 mm increase in bore diameter and a huge 18.9 mm increase in stroke length. The compression is also slightly stepped up to 10.5:1, while the electronics have been recalibrated and more aggressive camshafts have been fitted by the factory and has a free flowing exhaust. The result is 276 horsepower at 5750 rpm and 284 ft pound of torque at 4000 rpm. The engine has 82 more horsepower that the C280 and 36 more that the BMW M3.

The five-speed automatic transmission can be shifted manually through the gates is quite effective. The C36 uses 12.3 inch vented disc brakes up front and 10.9 inches in the rear. The brake engineering used on the heavier SL600 was used on the C36, adding great braking performance.The C36 can accelerate from 0 to 60 in just 5.9 seconds and can cover the quarter mile in 14.7 seconds.

The engine runs execeptionally strong. The transmission shifts crisply, no lag, no slippage or harshness. The air conditioning blows ice cold. The vehicle has 4 new Bridgestone tires, as per Mercedes-Benz fitmant guide. The paint is factory original and is glossy and no signs of fading. Everything works and the vehicle has been serviced regularly since new. We have all maintenance records. The vehicle was originally purchased and serviced at Fletcher Jones Motor Cars in Newport Beach, in Southern California.

Ownership

The C36 belonged to an elderly gentleman in his 80's, who owned it since new and took care of it faithfully for more than 18 years. The mileage is correct, and was driven on a regular basis. Since he was not driving much these days, he decided it was time to get it in the hands of someone who would drive it more often and appreciate it. So that is the car we have today. No bodywork has been done on the car at all. The 54,600 miles, gives this Mercedes-Benz special value. It still feels new, smells new, the seats don't even look like they have been sat on. Turn the key and the engine starts right up. If you ever wanted a Mercedes, don't let this classic slip through your fingers.

Mercedes-Benz History

Mercedes-Benz found itself with not much competition in the sports sedan arenas, so they joined up with AMG who helped Mercedes produce new sport sedans in the early 1990's. The C36 was their first collaboration sold to the public. The car was more powerful than the BMW M3, which was very exciting. The C36 had a limited run in production. Mercedes-Benz and AMG produced 1018 C36's from 1995 to 1998, making it even more desireable to own.

Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG coming to the New York Auto Show

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

Mercedes-Benz showed off the CLA45 AMG at a private event on the eve of the Geneva Motor Show, but was determined not to let it be photographed. We can talk about it, though - after all, a teaser image was released to promote the new Sony game Drive Club. The CLA45 AMG will use the same powertrain as the A45 AMG, which means a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. And that means a small four-door coupe sedan with the highest horsepower-per-liter in the segment. It will shift through the same seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, should also run out of speed at 155 miles per hour and have that three-stage stability control system.
As with its hatch sibling, the CLA is already so aggressive on the outside - and the parent company so anxious not to demolish the sedan's 0.22 coefficient of drag - that not much has been done to the cranked-up CLA. Even the rather thin tires on the standard only get a little less thin on the hotter variant. Inside will be the telltale AMG signs, with lots of red detailing and that flat-bottomed wheel among the giveaways. We'll know more later this month when the wraps come off at the New York International Auto Show.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic [w/video]

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

Maybe you saw our recent blog snippet on a bunch of US journos getting pulled over in the middle of nowhere in Catalunya, Spain for driving a bunch of new 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG models. By all accounts, they weren't speeding - which makes me softly guffaw. I was there in that group, yet I had taken the more direct route into the mountains from Barcelona so that I could... well, so that I could go faster. No one hassled me and I had the Autovia all to myself. And it was the goodniks - the team players - who got nabbed because Spain had decided to suddenly enforce the never enforced "must carry an international driver's license" clause of the highway code.
The departing E63 AMG with 518 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque from its M157 5.5-liter biturbo V8 hasn't exactly been poorly received. It isn't as crisp as, nor as pleasantly evil as its C63 AMG kid brother, but we generally accept that the heavier and larger car will always feel, well, heavier and larger.
As part of the 2014 E-Class mid-cycle redesign, Affalterbach decided to give its E63 AMG more power and torque for the occasion. The base car now gives off 550 hp and 531 lb-ft, while the hotter S version I tested (formerly the AMG Performance Pack) produces 577 hp and 590 lb-ft. The other big novelty is that E63 sedans will be available with both rear- and all-wheel drive, while all US-spec E63 wagons will be 4Matic equipped.
