This is a ONE OWNER vehicle!  I am that one owner!


This is not your average 2006 S65.  This is indeed a true super-car which has been meticulously maintained in brand new condition at all times so please move on if you are looking for something you can pick up at or below current blue book values.

I purchased this car BRAND NEW - S65 AMG vehicles in 2006 were being sold above the MSRP of $190,000 for around $225,000 including luxury taxes, etc....  This is in fact a world class super-car and the S65 AMG still ranks among one of the top five fastest production cars in the world!  Zero to 60 in 3.9 seconds; zero to 100 and back to zero in less than 10 seconds - remember, when you drive a super-car, your biggest concern is stopping, not going!  Mercedes committed to hand-build up to 500 S65 and SL65-series vehicles each year since 2006.  Each year, Mercedes has actually built less somewhere less than 300 of these vehicles for sale worldwide - this is a collectible Mercedes!  From the factory, over 604 horsepower and over 738 lb. ft. of torque!

All numbers match on this car.  This is a California car that has NEVER been wrecked.  There is not one single scratch, ding, nor dent to be found ANYWHERE on the car.  This is the original finish and, quite honestly, it now looks a lot better than it did when I took brand new delivery - I have delivery date photos to prove this.  There is absolutely zero fade/oxidation on the front bumper as is commonly seen on the W220 body style since most of the cars are not properly maintained.

This car has been 100% garaged even when traveling - we only stay in hotels that have parking garages!

I have religiously changed the synthetic oil at least every 5,000 miles and, in many cases, I have been known to have the oil and filter changed at 2,000 and 2,500 mile intervals.  This is in comparison to the Mercedes recommendation to change the oil every 10,000 miles.  Every single service record back to the day I took delivery in March, 2006 is available directly from Mercedes-Benz as well as from me.

I have personally washed this car, by hand, every week that it has been driven and I have personally polished it every 2-4 months depending on driving frequency.

However, as I hope you can see by the very low mileage, this car has not been driven hard and has not been used for any sort of daily commute in rush hour traffic.

The interior, as documented by the photos, is still in BRAND NEW condition!  There is only minor wear on the driver's seat which may not even be visible in the photos.  There is ZERO wear on the carpet, the carpet is still in brand new condition.  As the photos also show, the leather and felt material on each door of the vehicle are all still in new condition with no dirt nor any signs of wear.  The Italian suede Alcantara headliner and side pillar material is in perfect condition.

The rear seats of this vehicle are fully functional just as the front seats.  Additionally, this was one of only three Mercedes-Benz vehicles imported into the United States in 2006 which has special rear seat controls not available in any other 2006 Mercedes-Benz.  This car is also "one of one" for 2006 which means that this was the only 2006 S65 AMG ordered in this specific color combination.  You will NOT see your car driving down the road being driven by someone else!

The engine compartment is immaculate because I have kept it pristine at all times.  The same can be said of the trunk.

The hand-built engine and transmission on this car are PERFECT and have NEVER needed ANY work beyond motor oil/filter changes and transmission fluid/filter changes.

This car is as quiet, if not quieter, than a Rolls-Royce Phantom under normal driving conditions (and also provides an astonishingly smooth ride which is very uncharacteristic of a world class super-car) and it becomes a ferocious and unmatched king of the road when you open it up and let the engine take over.

The car has an extended warranty which is still valid for another 20,000 miles or approximately 10 months, whichever comes first.  However, it is unlikely you will need it.  The car just spent some time at a well-known Southern California Mercedes-Benz dealership where they replaced just about every major electronically-controlled system on the car.  The entire ABC system was just replaced - including, but not limited to the pump, ALL hydraulic lines, ALL pressure hoses, all fluids, etc....All major Air Conditioning lines, the drier, new refrigerant, etc....A new radiator was installed last year with all hoses...Both turbos were resealed, etc... If you are familiar with Mercedes-Benz engineering, then you know that all of these new components have been redesigned to avoid premature failure which means that this car is ready for the road and most likely will not require any major service for another 100,000 miles.

The tires are brand new nitrogen-filled OEM Michelin PS2 safety-rated to allow the car to achieve its top speed of 220 miles per hour!  A set of four new Michelin PS2s cost approximately $2,000 including installation.  The S65 AMG wheels on this car - each wheel - has an MSRP Mercedes dealer replacement cost of $6,500 for EACH WHEEL.  As the photos document, there is NO visible damage to ANY wheel whatsoever except for minor rock chips which are simply not visible in the photos and are not visible to most human eyes.

ALL serious offers will receive serious consideration.  The car is available for inspection in the Encino area of Los Angeles.

Mercedes to market Tesla-powered 2014 B-Class EV in U.S.

Thu, 05 Jul 2012

Looks like another Tesla Motors investor will be looking to cash in on their connection. Autoweek reports Mercedes-Benz will offer their B-Class in the U.S. with Tesla propulsion.
The magazine says their source at the German automaker confirms plans for a B-Class electric-only vehicle. While Tesla already provides battery packs for the battery-powered Smart ForTwo, the B-Class EV will reportedly have Tesla batteries, motor and other components. U.S. residents should be able to procure one sometime in 2014.
The same Mercedes source says plans for a hybrid B-Class have been postponed for now. Adding a range-extending, gasoline-powered engine to an electric vehicle would put the car into a different class for which rebates and incentives aren't as favorable in the States.

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.

Mercedes-AMG considering turbo fours, hybrid sixes for future performance sedans

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

Think of the letters AMG and you'll probably end up picturing a performance sedan with a big V8. Such has become, after all, the Mercedes turning division's calling card. But with the introduction of its 2.0-liter turbo four, AMG is working at turning that notion on its head.
The highly potent engine produces 355 horsepower and is presently installed in the A45 AMG hatchback, CLA45 AMG sedan and GLA45 AMG crossover, giving Benz's smallest family a full range of performance models. But that might not be the full extent of the high-strung four-pot's use.
Speaking with AMG boss Tobias Moers, Britain's What Car? magazine reports that Affalterbach is considering slotting the same engine into larger models, particularly performance sedans like the C-Class. As we recently reported, Mercedes is already preparing to up the power from the turbo V6 in the C400 to slot a C450 Sport in below the C63 AMG. The C450 is expected to offer around 367 horsepower where the CLA45 AMG et al pack 355, but the lighter weight of the four-cylinder engine would likely offset the truancy of those extra dozen horses. Of course such a prospect would be much further down the pipeline than the C450 Sport which is expected to arrive much sooner.
