Vehicle Description
Just arrived is this incredible, all original, and ultra-low mileage example of the R107 series Mercedes-Benz SL-Class, in the most sought after trim and color combination (Signal Red and Cream Beige leather). This SL has had two owners since new, and was first used as a summer-only car in Ontario, Canada by the original owner, who then sold it to his neighbor a few years later (2001), where it became a winter-only car in Naples, Florida.
As a person who has dealt in scores of these cars over the years, both privately and working for a company that specializes in them - I can say without reservation or hesitation that this is the finest example I have ever seen. It is an absolute show car, and I always err on the side of caution when describing these cars to people - preferring that a buyer be pleasantly surprised rather than let down. That said, I can simply find nowhere to fault this incredibly preserved machine, from the condition of the paint, to the perfect leather and wood, to the immaculate carpet, to the wear-free buttons and switches, to the no cracks on the dash, to the supple original soft top with crystal clear windows, to the drive quality, and to the remarkable maintenance its had to be in such excellent mechanical health. It literally drives like new, and shows no leaks or trouble of any kind, with cold AC, proper heat, excellent vacuum control, and no issues anywhere.
Being originally sold in Canada, this car - while otherwise identical in every way to a US model - has a speedometer/odometer in kilometers instead of miles, and a temperature gauge in Celsius. It just turned 60,024 KM, which works out to 37,297 miles. The KM reading makes it a prime candidate for export to Europe, or if it is sold to the US, we can have our workshopdo a documented speedometer/odometer change (if desired) to switch from the KM to miles.
It has the original hard top in excellent condition, and has been freshly serviced by our Bosch-certified workshop. It includes all factory keys and books, including two masters and one valet. It has had no paintwork anywhere, no body rust on the top or bottom (never driven in snow, and the last owner swears never driven in rain!), and the factory wheels are in stellar condition all around, with fresh Goodyear tires. This car is incredibly original, down to the factory spare tire and wheel, first aid box, and still-sealed toolkit! If you're looking for one to collect or drive very sparingly as it appreciates, then look no further - this is the right car. Phone us at (239) 273-1150 or (239) 261-3600 for sales information.

The lenses and brightwork all look like new.
The clarity of the lenses is incredible.

Additionally, the glass is all original.

excellent condition, with fresh Goodyear Eagles.

Mercedes-Benz announced a $1.3-billion investment Friday in its Tuscaloosa, AL, factory to increase SUV production capacity. The move comes on the heels of Autoblog's exclusive report that the GLC Coupe Concept will enter production as the German luxury marque continues to push for increased SUV sales. The investment will add 300 jobs to the approximately 3,500-strong workforce. The facility will be responsible for what Mercedes calls "the next SUV generations," which makes it sound like the plant will continue to assemble the GLE-Class and GL-Class SUVs, as well as the C-Class sedan. The next-gen SUVs built in Alabama will include hybrid variants, Mercedes said. Upgrades to the sprawling 5-million-square-foot facility include a new 1.3-million-square-foot body shop that will implement modular construction techniques. As for the current body shop, it will be expanded by nearly 140,000 square feet and will receive a larger "marriage" station, for pairing bodies and powertrains. Finally, the entire facility will receive a major IT upgrade. "In the next years we invest $1.3 billion in the expansion of our SUV production and turn the Mercedes-Benz plant Tuscaloosa into a high-tech location," Mercedes' Markus Schafer said in the attached release. "In this way we can produce the next SUV generations even more flexibly, efficiently and in proven top quality." If you're interested in the nitty gritty particulars of the announcement, you can read all about them in the official press release. Mercedes-Benz Tuscaloosa Plant: Mercedes-Benz invests $1.3 Billion in the expansion of its SUV production Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA / Stuttgart, Germany, Sep 18, 2015 MBUSI (Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, Inc.) to produce future SUV generations including hybrid versions SUV production to be expanded – 300 new jobs New Body Shop, major enhancements to SUV Assembly Shop and upgraded logistics and IT systems Implementation of state-of-the-art technologies and end-to-end digitization of production processes in line with the smart factory approach Markus Schafer, Member of the Divisional Board Mercedes-Benz Cars, Manufacturing and Supply Chain Management: "In the next years we invest $1.3 billion in the expansion of our SUV production and turn the Mercedes-Benz plant Tuscaloosa into a high-tech location.
After an argument with his adoptive parents that resulted in them taking away his mobile phone, an angry 13-year-old boy ran away from his home in Italy and headed straight to Poland to meet his biological sister. But instead of taking the train or hitching a ride, like most on the run, the young man (an accomplished go-kart racer and car enthusiast) grabbed the keys to his father's Mercedes-Benz and jumped behind the wheel for an impromptu road trip. With less than 200 euros (about $270) in his wallet and a passport in his pocket, the youngster managed to put more than 500 miles between himself and his distraught parents, crossing two international borders in the process, before German police nabbed him just shy of the Polish border. According to reports, the vehicle was tracked - it wasn't his driving that alerted authorities to his location. Reunited with his mother and father, who traveled to Germany to retrieve both their son and the vehicle, the young man apologized and acknowledged his error. As a result of his actions, social workers will increase checks on the family and we can be sure his parents are now hiding the keys.
With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension. Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014. Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.
