THIS MERCEDES RUNS AND
DRIVES VERY GOOD (M117 ENGINE)! THE ENGINE FIRES
RIGHT UP AND IT HAS A SMOOTH IDLE AND EXCELLENT POWER. THE AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY AND THE RIDE IS SOLID AND QUIET. THIS CAR IS
A PLEASURE TO DRIVE! I AM A PRIVATE OWNER AND
I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE MAY 2013. I HAVE SINCE TREATED THIS CAR WITH MUCH
CARE AND LOVE AS DID THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO MADE ME PROMISE I WOULD TAKE GOOD
CARE OF IT. NO EXPENSE HAS BEEN SPARED TO KEEP THIS CAR IN VERY GOOD
MECHANICAL CONDITION! ALL MECHANICAL
MAINTENANCE IS UP-TO-DATE! THIS 450SL HAS BEEN
TREATED TO MANY UPDATES AND/OR NEW PARTS IN THE LAST FEW YEARS. THIS
INCLUDES: NARDI STEERING WHEEL,NEW EXTERIOR PAINT, NEW SOFT TOP, NEW SEAT UPHOLSTERY, NEW
CARPET, NEW STEREO, AND NUMEROUS NEW MECHANICAL PARTS INCLUDING FUEL PUMP AND FILTER, NEW ALTERNATOR, NEW HIGHER VOLTAGE IGNITION COIL, NEW SHOCKS ALL AROUND, NEW SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES, NEW ROTOR AND DISTRIBUTOR CAP. ALL FLUIDS HAVE BEEN DRAINED, INCLUDING DIFFERENTIAL, TRANSMISSION, ENGINE, POWER STEERING, ANTIFREEZE AND BRAKE FLUIDS! THERE IS VERY LITTLE TO DO TO TURN THIS MACHINE INTO A COMPLETE RESTORATION. THE EXTERIOR LOOKS VERY
NICE WITH GLOSSY TAN PAINT, CHROME WHEELS, NICE CHROME TRIM, VERY GOOD BUMPERS,
A NEW BROWN SOFT TOP, A MATCHING TAN HARD TOP IN GOOD CONDITION WITH A COUPLE
OF SCRATCHES AROUND THE LIP , GOOD GLASS ALL AROUND, AND MORE! EXTERIOR BLEMISHES
ARE: RUST ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE IN SEVERAL SPOTS, SOME TAN PAINT
OVERSPRAY ON THE BODY IN SPOTS, A FEW SMALL AREAS OF BUBBLING RUST ON THE
BODY UNDER THE PAINT, BUBBLES ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE TOP OF HEADLIGHT , AND SOME
CHROME PITTING/BUBBLING ON THE TRUNK AREA. YOU CAN SEE MULTIPLE PICTURES
OF ALL THESE BLEMISHES BELOW THIS DESCRIPTION. YOU DON'T NOTICE THE BODY
RUST AND PAINT OVERSPRAY ISSUES UNLESS YOU ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE CAR.
OTHER THAN THE MENTIONED ISSUES, THE EXTERIOR LOOKS VERY NICE! THE INTERIOR LOOKS
EXCELLENT! IT HAS NEW SEAT UPHOLSTERY, NEW CARPET THROUGHOUT, AFTERMARKET STEREO, NICE DOOR PANELS, EXCELLENT CHROME TRIM,
AND MORE! THE TRUE MILEAGE IS UNKNOWN. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 76,989 MILES, BUT IT DOES NOT WORK. THE CAR HAS ABOUT 95,000 MILES ON IT ACCORDING TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER; I MYSELF ADDED ANOTHER 1500 MILES DURING MY OWNERSHIP. THE POWER WINDOWS, POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING, AUDIO SYSTEM, A/C BLOWER, A/C CONTROLS, POWER ANTENNA, AND DASH GAUGES ALL WORK GREAT! WHAT DOESN'T WORK IS: THE A/C ITSELF (BLOWS WARM AIR), CRUISE CONTROL, HAZARD LIGHTS, AND THE ANALOG CLOCK (WORKS SOMETIMES). TIRES WOULD NEED TO BE CHANGED IF TAKING LONG TRIPS. THE NY STATE INSPECTION
DOES NOT EXPIRE UNTIL MAY 2015. THE CAR WILL PASS STATE INSPECTION
ANYWHERE. BEFORE DELIVERY I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH THAT
STOPPED WORKING RECENTLY. I WILL REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE BEFORE DELIVERY. Please contact ROGER

SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
Maybach and Aston Martin alliance talks fall apart
Tue, 27 Sep 2011If you have, like us, been salivating at the notion of a new generation of Maybach and Lagonda ultra-luxury crafts built by Aston Martin, we've got some bad news: According to reports emanating from Germany, talks between AML and Daimler have broken down.
The proposal under negotiation would have seen Daimler outsourcing production of the next family of Maybach models to Aston Martin, which in return would benefit from Mercedes-Benz platforms and engines - not only for its svelte GTs, but also for its own future Lagonda line of limousines and luxury SUVs. That, and a boatload of money - or at least that's what AML was reportedly seeking, an issue that served as the stumbling block over which the deal reportedly collapsed.
That's not to say the two parties couldn't still reach some sort of a compromise, but short of that, Daimler may opt to either shut down Maybach altogether, find another partner, or take another stab at building new models internally.
