2002 Mercedes-Benz C230 Kompressor Sports Coupe
Just in time for the recession: A cloth-upholstered Mercedes.
High among the things many Americans don't understand about European life are traffic circles,
There's not much anyone can (or should?) do to bridge the cultural divide on those first three subjects. Mercedes-Benz would like to introduce you to the luxury hatch with its 2002 C230 Kompressor sports coupe.
Luxury-brand hatchbacks are popular in Europe, where streets are small and gas prices large. But only BMW tried to sell a hatchback, the 318ti, in the United States, in 1995. It attracted few buyers, and those who did buy one were much older than BMW had expected. After 1999, the ti was gone.
That explains the calculated misnomer Mercedes has given to its new "sports coupe," although it's obviously a hatchback. "Hatchback" is such a marketing cuss word that Mercedes officials wince at the mention of it. Forget for a moment that Mercedes sells a proper coupe, the CLK.
The sports coupe is based on the 2001 C-class sedan, sharing its 106.9-inch wheelbase, suspension, steering, and brakes. The "sports" portion of its name is justified, Mercedes says, by the car's rakish styling and its standard sport suspension tuning.
Unlike BMW's failed U.S.-market hatchback, the Mercedes sports coupe does not share any body panels with its C-class donor sedan. Mercedes is counting heavily on this fact to convince shoppers that the sports coupe isn't just a budget-minded C-class but is something with a distinct image. Viewed from anywhere but behind, the sports coupe is distinctive and attractive, with an aggressive wedge shape. Only the rear view will be seen as controversial. It's vaguely French-looking, almost Renaultlike.
The standard tuning of the coupe's strut-front and multilink-rear suspension approximates the C-class four-door's optional Sport package, although specific spring rates and shock valving differ slightly. All U.S.-model sports coupes come with 16-inch wheels bearing 225/50VR-16
But the sports coupe is no more sporting than the sedan. As with most Mercedes, the coupe feels heavy, despite its reasonable 3300-pound heft. The car's body remains nearly flat going around corners, but it feels more confident and composed than frisky.
The only engine offered is an improved version of the familiar iron-block 2.3-liter supercharged four-cylinder found in the SLK roadster. For the sports coupe (and the 2001 SLK) Mercedes added a new fuel-injection system and upgraded the intake
A six-speed manual is standard, and a five-speed manumatic is optional. Either choice represents a compromise. The six-speed, taken from the C240 sedan, allows a driver to keep the supercharged engine in its power band, but its shift feel is poor, rubbery, and uncertain. The five-speed automatic shifts beautifully, but this was supposed to be a sports coupe, right?
Although based closely on the four-door, the sports coupe's interior does have a dash of sport feel. Instead of wood-grain trim, the coupe uses satin aluminum bits. The seats are firm and have thicker bolsters than what you'll find in the sedan. And the rear-passenger quarters are sporting-car small. Despite the cramped rear, the sports coupe has a big enough back seat to qualify by our reckoning as a wonderful vehicle.
I am selling my car because i dont have the time to fix. if you do this is a great deal. Below are more in depth of what i know of the car.
Needs two rear rims. Left rear damage in front of the tire. missing side marker light. drivers side fog light does not work. sunroof is stuck open and wont close. check engine light is on. as well as the srs light. Rear window is broken out i do have the window covered to avoid elemental issues. drives great and shifts great. most issues are cosmetic. i am not a certified mechanic but i know it drives and handles like a car should. i will accept paypal, cash, and loan checks. and cash in person.
good luck and happy bidding. if you have any questions just ask.

Mercedes-Maybach Pullman is the luxury car for the discerning dictator
Fri, Mar 16 2018For decades, Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-Maybach cars have been the ride of choice for leaders across the globe, presidents, ambassadors, dictators and despots alike. The Pullman model — a long-wheelbase six-seat variant — has been particularly popular with this select clientele. This week, the German automaker announced the latest version of the car, the Mercedes-Maybach Pullman S650. Essentially, this is a stretched version of the V12-powered Maybach with two rear-facing seats just behind the front row. Mercedes is calling this vis-a-vis seating. There's also a partitioning glass between the front seats and the rear cabin. This is of course to help prevent the chauffeur from learning and spilling any state secrets or plans for plans for secret moon bases. New for this model is a front-facing camera for rear-seat passengers. This allows occupants to watch for any oncoming obstacles, barricades or road blocks. Visually, there's no mistaking the Pullman for another Maybach or really anything else on the road. The car is 21.3-feet long, 4.5-feet longer than the standard Maybach or roughly the size of two and a half Smart Fortwo placed bumper-to-bumper. The requisite 20-inch 10-hole wheels are present and the standard pinstripe Maybach grille has been updated with a slightly new design. The car only comes in S650 trim, meaning it's powered by a 630 horsepower 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12. As expected, the Mercedes-Maybach Pullman isn't cheap. Orders have started, but be prepared to shell out at least $615,000 before adding any custom touches.

Aston Martin and Mercedes-Benz expand collaboration
Tue, Oct 27 2020Aston Martin on Tuesday expanded a deal with Daimler to access the German automaker's technology, including its hybrid and electric drive systems, in exchange for new shares as the struggling British luxury carmaker's new boss drives changes. The company will place 250 million new shares with new and existing institutional investors at 50 pence (currently around 65 cents) a share, said the 107-year car maker that hired Tobias Moers, former CEO of Mercedes-AMG, to become its boss from August. The new shares issued would increase the size of Mercedes-Benz's stake to no more than 20% by 2023 from the current 2.6% in several stages. "We take another major step forward as our long-term partnership with Mercedes-Benz AG moves to another level with them becoming one of the Company's largest shareholders," said Chairman Lawrence Stroll. The German firm would get the right to nominate one non-executive director to Aston Martin's board after its first shareholding increase. The James Bond car maker, which has started deliveries of its first sport utility vehicle, the DBX, reported third-quarter adjusted core loss of 29 million pounds compared with a profit of 43 million pounds last year and revenue that nearly halved to 124 million pounds.
