Up for auction is our pristine 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL600 Coupe, with a Twin Turbo V12 motor.
This top-of-the-line model puts out 493 silky-smooth horsepower that feels and sounds like a jet airplane taxing on a runway.
Getting to 60 miles per hour in 4.6 seconds is not too bad. Top speed is electronically limited to 155 illegal miles per hour.

Do your Google search and you will see that this top-of-the-line model comes with tons of expensive options.
Go to Wikipedia and type in 2003 Mercedes CL600 and then scroll down to "W215" models.

The best highway mileage I got was 22 mpg (freeway) according to the onboard computer.
I did that by staying under 2,000 rpm (about 70 mph) with cruise control on.

I'm an old motorhead geezer that has owned many classic high-performance cars but this is the nicest one of all.
It took me a very long time to find it. It had been a leased car in Arizona, then went to southern California and
then north to my town of Los Altos, California. It has never been driven in snow or salt, as far as I know.

Because we are retired, the car very seldom gets driven, thus the low mileage of 50, 2XX. It is parked in a heated garage.
Also, when this car is driven in sunshine the rear window sun-screen is always used. This is done
to protect the rear interior of the car. It works great, and is easily raised or lowered with a push of a button on the dash.

I'm a former certified Mercedes-Benz Concours d'Elegance judge and have shown this car at Treasure Id., San Francisco
and at the Palo Alto Concours with the Mercedes-Benz Club. Since I was a judge it was only for show, not competition.

The original price in 2003 (OTD) was $140,000! Now you can get it at a fraction of this price.
This car comes with the optional $5,600 AMG body package, wider rear wheels and chrome AMG wheels. Motor is stock.
This is why it might be a little higher than some of the other CL600s on eBay.

When I first got it there was a small blemish on the chrome grill so I had a new one installed (see photo).
The Michelin tires were replaced recently, as well as new brakes. The spare tire has never been used.
While I owned it, it has always been hand washed and waxed with Zymol. As far as I know, it has never been smoked in.
Ash trays (front and rear) have never been used (see photo).

This past year over $10,000 of new parts have been put in, such as a new ABC (Active Body Control) system, tires, brakes, radiatior,
timing belt, water pump, etc., etc.

The exterior color is Bright Silver and the interior color is Ash. Speaking of the interior, when you get inside
you think you are in a brand new car. Since we have owned it there were no children or pets inside.
In my opinion, it happens to have the most comfortable seat on the planet!
Both front seats heat up, cool down and the front ones give you a massage while driving. How cool is that?

All controls operate as designed. It comes with original manuals, Mercedes-Benz CD maps,
Mercedes unused first-aid kit, and original unused tools (see photo).
It also comes with 4 black WeatherTech floor mats. These are great for protecting the original carpeting.

The only flaw that I am aware of are hairline cracks in the front fenders (very typical of CL models).
I have all receipts for parts and repairs since purchasing it in early 2008.

The car is registered in California up to January 2015!

It comes with no warranty and is sold as is, where is.
PLEASE NOTE: The personal license plates are not included in the sale. Also, since I am listing this locally
I reserve the right to close this auction early.

If you have any questions feel free to phone me at: (1-650) 941-8621

SHIPPING: This is 100% buyer's responsibility. I have used (enclosed trailer) Intercity Lines, Inc. (Jay Leno uses them)

PAYMENT: $500.00 deposit (through PayPal) is due within 72 hours of end-of-auction.
Balance is due within 10 days of end-of-auction.
If balance is paid by Cashier's Check the car will not be released
until the check has completely cleared my bank, which could take up to two weeks.

If you want to fly to my area and drive it home I will gladly pick you up at the San Jose or San Francisco Airport.

Race recap: 2015 Singapore Grand Prix full of odd sideshows

Mon, Sep 21 2015

What greeted the Formula One teams in Singapore? Confusion. The haze was so thick that observers wondered if the race would be held at all. Then practices began, and Mercedes-AMG Petronas driver Nico Rosberg took the first one, but the team fell away after that. Mercedes said it couldn't get the tires turned on, but no one believed the Silver Arrows was in genuine trouble. Then qualifying set the confusion in stone. Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel laid down the best time in Q3, taking the team's first pole position since Germany in 2012. Daniel Ricciardo got his Infiniti Red Bull Racing into second, about one tenth behind Vettel. (That may make the team feel better after Ricciardo publicly asked for a better engine than the current Renault unit, and team advisor Helmut Marko said the outfit will quit F1 at the end of this year if it can't get a stronger powerplant for 2016.) Kimi Raikkonen put the second Ferrari in third, Daniil Kvyat put the second Red Bull in fourth. And only then came the Meredes'. Lewis Hamilton's best got him fifth, the Brit saying, "We don't really know what we have got wrong. For some reason the tires are not working on the car. We do the warm-up the same as everyone else and then you see someone one second up the road." For added emphasis on the reversal of fortune, his time was 1.6 seconds behind Vettel's. Teammate Rosberg is next to him in sixth, a further half a second back. Williams is still a hurting a bit on slow tracks, so Valtteri Bottas could only get into seventh ahead of Max Verstappen in the Toro Rosso and teammate Felipe Massa in ninth. When the red lights went out, the 2015 Singapore Grand Prix would get both less interesting and more interesting all the way to the final lap. The men up front got good getaways, and the order into Turn 1 was Vettel, Ricciardo, and Raikkonen. The race finished with those three in that order, never having conceded position. Vettel's Ferrari enjoyed the track so much that he laid a second per lap into Ricciardo for the first five, then relaxed. He'd let the gap come down later in the race a couple of times, but any time he wanted to see what his mirrors looked like without anyone in them he'd take off again. Rosberg took fourth position after holding down sixth for the first stint. It looked like he'd have an even worse day - for a Mercedes driver - when he had problems getting his car started and onto the grid before the race.
