For sale is my 2001 CL600 V12 Mercedes pillar less coupe. Honestly this car has been a pleasure to own but with our new home I do not have garage space for it. I am the second owner and the first owner was a retired basketball player for the Dallas Mavericks. In the past 12 months I have spent over $15,000 on servicing this car. I wasn't planning on getting rid of it so everything has been taken care of. Both Coil packs, ABS pump, All 4 door seals, All the ball joints, Both Strut arms, Both Thrust arms, Front struts, soft close actuators on both doors and the trunk, rear factory 8" subwoofer, replaced the rear power shade, headlight washer pump, all 4 wheel height sensors and links and new brakes on all 4 corners. All of this work was done by my local Mercedes dealer and I have all of the corresponding receipts. The ECU was sent to Renntech for the 80hp tune and I have installed a new set of 19" Renntech Forged wheels wrapped in brand new Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires with approximately 1000 miles on them. The car is also sporting a Renntech Burl wood shifter. Now I do have the Renntech emblems that come with the tune that I did not install but I will include them with the car. I also have a set of CL65 Black edition lights that I might or might not have installed on Monday, just depends on how the bidding is going. All in all the car is in gorgeous condition and it runs great. I purchased the car a few years ago in Texas with 30,000 miles right after I moved to Louisiana and I was using it to drive from Lafayette to Houston on a weekly basis so the majority of the miles I have put are highway miles that being said driving it on the highway that much the front bumper and hood have some small chips and it being a Texas car new some dumbass screwed the plate to the bumper so their are the 4 small plate screw holes in the bumper. I tried to capture this in the photos but I will be happy to email you more if you are interested. This car was garaged and covered the entire time I owned it so the paint is very nice for a 13 year old car. This car is equipped with the AMG appearance package with includes the suede interior trim the Alcantera leather and the heated and cooled seats. The one and only thing I would say this car needs would be to have the bumper and hood re-sprayed and it would be perfect. Take a look at the pictures and judge for yourself. I will assist with shipping if needed and I can recommend a shipper that I have used before that is reliable if that is also needed. This vehicle is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction if the vehicle sells locally.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs

Wed, Nov 29 2017

BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining

How tariffs in China could cause a meltdown in the American South

Sun, Aug 25 2019

While BMW is clearly a German company, the crossovers that are exceedingly important to it are actually made in Spartanburg, South Carolina. And more than that, the Spartanburg plant (physically located in the town of Greer) is where the corporate know-how and capability for those vehicles is concentrated. These are the vehicles – specifically, the BMW X3, X4, X5, X6, X7 – that drove record growth for the company in 2018, according to BMW. But whatÂ’s most notable about BMW Group Plant Spartanburg, given current events, is that according to the U.S. Department of Commerce it was the largest automotive exporter by value for the fifth year running in 2018. ThatÂ’s worth emphasizing: largest automotive exporter by value. Not GM. Not Ford. BMW. And where might one assume that more than a few of those X vehicles are shipped to? China. Some 360 miles southwest of Spartanburg is Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, Inc., in in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama. It started building vehicles in 1997. Since then, Daimler AG has invested in excess of $5.5 billion in the facility. It manufactures the crossover now known as the GLE, formerly the ML-Class. It also makes the GLE coupe and GLS. Daimler describes the Tuscaloosa facility as “the traditional home of SUV production” for those vehicles. When it reported its global 2018 sales, Daimler noted that on a global basis SUVs account “for more than a third of all Mercedes-Benz sales.” According to the Chinese finance ministry, on December 15th the Chinese government will impose a 25% tariff on automobiles (and a 5% tariff on auto parts) from the U.S. Certainly this is going to have a direct effect on the sales of vehicles that are manufactured in the U.S. and exported to China. BMW and Mercedes are going to take it on the chin for the vehicles that they make in plants that they invested in so heavily in the U.S. Which could potentially mean that people in places like Greer, South Carolina, and Vance, Alabama, are going to find themselves in the crosshairs of the combatants. Soo too could Lincoln, which produces vehicles in places like Louisville, Kentucky (Navigator), Chicago, Illinois (Aviator) and Flat Rock, Michigan (Continental). Although the Tesla Gigafactory 3 is rapidly nearing completion in Shanghai, it is worth noting that vehicles built in Fremont, California, are being sold in China in numbers that donÂ’t make Musk unhappy.

Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe launches with DTM-styled Edition 1 [w/video]

Wed, Sep 16 2015

It's not as flashy or fantastical as the concept cars, big luxury cars, and exotics being shown here at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, but the Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe still gets us really excited. That's because it's a semi-attainable production car; like, we'll actually get to drive it, and soon. The C63 Coupe builds upon the gorgeous, two-door C-Class that also made its debut at the Frankfurt show. It's powered by the same twin-turbocharged, 4.0-liter V8 as the C63 sedan, producing either 469 or 503 horsepower, depending on the model. If the sedan's driving dynamics are anything to go on, the C63 Coupe ought to be a total riot. For the occasion of its premiere, Mercedes brought the C63 Edition 1 to Frankfurt, wearing a unique paint job that mimics the look of the automaker's recently unveiled DTM racer. The Edition 1 rolls on unique wheels – measuring 19 inches in front and 20 inches out back – and comes with unique aerodynamic enhancements, more gloss and chrome trim, and racing buckets inside. Edition 1 or not, the C63 Coupe is a car we're very happy to welcome to the world. We can't wait to test one.
