I am selling my 1998 Mercedes Benz SL 500. It is located in Boise, Idaho. It has 73,286 original/actual miles on it. It has spent its whole life until recently in Florida. It has been very well cared for as you can see in the pictures. The interior is immaculate with a few imperfections. Those imperfections include some minor scratches on the driver door seat adjustment panel, a few buttons on the radio that are not missing, but loose, and a slight "peeling" on the driver door window molding. All of these imperfections can be viewed in the pictures. The exterior is a 9.5. Paint looks new. No scratches, dents, or dings. All power options, and lights work perfectly. There are no wear marks on the leather, and no stains on the carpet. There is no rust anywhere on the car. The top works perfectly, and The A/C blows ice cold. It has a clean, clear car title. It has never been in an accident or had work done to it. I will guarantee the carfax and autocheck to be perfect, with 3 owners. The vehicle does come with a manual, and a full size spare. The wheels have been newly chromed, and are guaranteed, and the tires are 80+. Overall, it is a beautiful car, that runs great and looks amazing, regardless of the year. I have a video of the car starting, running, driving, and operating under normal conditions. Please feel free to ask any additional questions. EBAY did not notify of questions when i had previously listed this car. Sorry if you had questions that were not answered.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept gets mobbed in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013If the reception it received at the Shanghai Motor Show is any judge of marketplace acceptance, Mercedes-Benz has a hit on its hands in the form of the GLA Concept. And we can understand why - we're quickly becoming fans of Mercedes' recent styling language, as defined by new models like the CLA and this GLA Concept.
The big news on the exterior front are the headlamp clusters, which have frickin' laser beams attached to their foreheads embedded inside that are capable of projecting videos and images on a screen. Plus, a pair of video cameras are mounted on the roof that can be used to capture driving excitement or removed and taken with you. How cool is that? We just hope they have a substantial locking mechanism to prevent would-be thievery...
If the exterior is mostly ready for production, with a few of the more outlandish elements moved to the trash bin - like, for instance, laser-beam headlamps and removable action cams - the interior is a true custom job that screams concept loud and clear. There are all kinds of jewel-like finishes inside, along with transparent surfaces showing what looks like metal latticework underneath and some awfully thick looking leather with massive exterior stitching done by hand similar to what you'd find on a baseball glove.
More German automakers may be afoul of US emission standards
Wed, Sep 23 2015Volkswagen has plenty of smoke to share, and that may mean fire for other German automakers that make diesel vehicles, says Automotive News. Earlier this month, European Federation for Transport and Environment said that BMW, Daimler's Mercedes-Benz and General Motor's Opel division are among other automakers that may have equipped their vehicles' diesel engines with similar software as VW's. That software was found to reduce emissions while a car is being tested for emissions and shuts down emissions-control systems during normal use. The European environmental group used data from the International Council on Clean Transportation. Automotive News notes that the European environmental group put out its own report earlier this month, before the VW scandal broke loose, but the report was pretty much overlooked. Now, VW is under fire after it was discovered that 2.0-liter diesel engines in the VW Jetta and Golf, and Audi A3, may be programmed to game the emissions system. VW sold almost a half-million diesel vehicles in the US during the past six years. Both BMW and Mercedes-Benz told Automotive News that the issue that befell VW doesn't apply to their diesel vehicles. Earlier this week, Volkswagen admitted its car ran the sneaky software, while the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has started a probe on the company. VW is setting aside more than $7 billion to pay for the alleged violations. Meanwhile, US taxpayers may have spent as much as $51 million a year to pay for subsidies related to VW's diesel vehicle sales in 2009 alone, according to the Los Angeles Times.
