You are looking at a very RARE 1984 EURO Benz 500SL, 2 door, 2 tops Convertible with 5.0L, V8, bullet proof, engine with automatic transmission.
A true 2 + 2 car, since it has the Kinder back seat. It is a true Euro model that was brought from Germany and was truly made for the autobahn, very fast and furious! Even my title says that it was first registered in a foreign country.
It has Euro headlights and Euro bumpers as well as a factory back Kinder seat with seat belts, very rare and expensive. It is most sought out and hard to find a true Euro car.
EBay system does not recognize Euro VIN #’s, here is the vin # for the car WDB1070461A001993. It was first imported by the original owner and stayed in Fl. Until I bought it from him when he brought it back to WI.
We used it a little during the summer and did not drive it anymore. Space is needed, hence the sale, otherwise, I would keep and restore.
Very expensive car and was sold for well $55k back in 84. NADA puts its value today between $19k&$40k and keeps going up in value every year. Very original and has low original miles, only 154k/miles. Very good engine with many new parts through the years. It is a complete pleasure to drive and most fun. Very sleek and beautiful and it demands attention anywhere it goes.

It comes fully loaded with Power Locks, Power Windows, Power Mirror,Antenna, Cruise Control, AC, Heated Seats for passenger and driver, Factory Back Seat with Seat Belts, Euro Adjustable Headlights with Wipers, Euro Bumpers, ABS, Leather Interior and much more.
All interior and exterior lights work as well,turn signals and wipers and pump. All gauges on the instrument cluster work. All options work on the car very well, even the clock and the horn work, Everything works on the car, though blower is not working when I tried it and that could be a fuse or a connection issue.
It is a drive and go car and last summer was driven from Fl. To Milwaukee, WI. And performed flawlessly, you can drive it anywhere you want!

Exterior is very nice, not perfect, as you can see from photos, the original paint still has a nice shine to it, trunk is dull and I am sure that it can be buffed out. In addition, some rust on top of the front fenders above the head lights, as can be seen in photos, and that can be easily repaired. Also, some rust by the trunk area that can also be repaired as well as couple of bubbles here and there. It has a black soft top that would need to be replaced, antenna broke of, but I do have the mast. Couple of spots where clear coat peeled as well as a loose cruise control handle and the visor for passenger side is missing. I do have, but have to find it!

In my opinion, nothing major and with little effort, you can have an excellent car. All chrome, glass, and molding are excellent. Tires are brand new as well as fuel system maintenance. Trunk is very clean and solid and it has a factory full size spare with tools and jack. Also, I have all original books and manuals that came with it from Germany.

Car runs, drives, shifts and handles well and can really hug the road. It has excellent pressure and idles very nice. It drives and shifts effortlessly. It is all ready to go on a moment’s notice. It does not miss a beat, very fast and a true performer indeed.

Interior is very nice overall. Dash is excellent but has minor crack, door panels, wood, chrome, carpeting Are excellent. Seats are very sturdy and comfortable.
By all means, the car is neither perfect nor is a garage queen and I am not saying that the car is a show car, for it is not. As mentioned above, car will need some work to make it perfect and again, had I have the time, I would do it because, it is well worth it.

It sold for well over $55k in 84, NADA value today is at $40k, so what you have is a very nice car selling at NO RESERVE and all this car will do is keep going up in value with time.

2019 Autoblog Technology of the Year finalists revealed

Fri, Jan 4 2019

Every fall, we line up a range of new models with the latest and most compelling automotive technology from the past year. We test everything from semi-autonomous systems like Tesla's Autopilot to trick suspension setups like the Multimatic spool-valve shocks on the Chevy Colorado ZR2. We spend months paring down the list to a small group of contenders. After testing, dinner and healthy debate, we tally up the votes and name our winner. For Autoblog's 2019 Technology of the Year Award, our three finalists are the Cadillac CT6 with Super Cruise, the Infiniti QX50 with Variable Compression Turbo and the Mercedes-AMG E 53 with EQ Boost. Super Cruise is an advanced SAE Level 2 semi-autonomous system, though Cadillac (unlike some of its rivals) is reluctant to push that point. Cadillac would like you to think of this as an advanced driver assistance feature rather than a semi-autonomous system. Super Cruise allows completely hands-free highway driving. Thanks to a driver-facing camera, the system forces the driver to keep his or her eyes on the road even if hands are off the wheel. Although the CT6 is being discontinued, look for Super Cruise to make its way to other Cadillacs soon. VC Turbo is a little more complicated. Basically, Infiniti's 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four can vary the compression ratio on the fly. In general, turbocharged engines are more efficient than naturally-aspirated engines when on boost, but can perform worse at low revs. VC Turbo allows for a best-of-both-worlds situation, increasing the compression at low revs and backing it off once the turbo spools up. The best part is that it does so seamlessly, with only a dash readout letting you know what's going on under the hood. Our third finalist is the EQ Boost 48-volt system in the Mercedes-AMG E 53. Like VC Turbo, EQ Boost does a lot just beneath the surface. Mercedes has developed a new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six and paired it with a small electric motor. While the car can't run on electricity alone, the motor helps improve both efficiency and performance, smoothing shifts and filling in low-end torque before the turbos spool up. Think torque fill, similar to a McLaren P1. Who can complain about better fuel economy and more torque? Look for the 48-volt system to make its way into most of the Mercedes-Benz lineup. The winner will be revealed next week on Autoblog, and we'll present the award Jan. 15 at the Detroit Auto Show. Related Video:

2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507 still lights our fire

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

The current Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG may be in the autumn of its years, but it's still one of our very favorite sport sedans. Ever. Yes, its paddle-shift transmission may not always follow orders, but with stupendous levels of thrust from its charismatic naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8, ebullient rear-wheel-drive dynamics and that noise, we frankly don't care that it's getting on a bit.
As a sendoff of sorts for the current generation, Mercedes-Benz has just introduced a new Edition 507 model at the Geneva Motor Show, with 507 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque - an increase of 56 horses over the standard car. Mercedes credits the substitution of low-mass internals from the SLS AMG gullwing for the power bump, a tactic shared with the AMG Development Package upgrade that has been subsumed by this Edition 507. 0-60 is quoted at 4.1 seconds and top speed at 174 mph.
The Edition 507 borrows its aluminum hood from the C63 AMG Black Series Coupe, along with spidery new 19-inch wheels in either titanium gray finish or matte black with shiny rim flanges. As seen on our gallery car above, a sports striping package is also featured, as are glossy black grille, daytime running lamps, spoiler and mirror caps.
