Up for auction is my 2000 Mercedes SLK 230. Great little Roadster with lots of new little stuff. New Headlight assembly, mass air flow sensor, new complete clutch assembly(pressure plate, disc, T/O bearing and pilot bearing less than 1K mi.), slave cylinder, drive belts and driver side view mirror and motor. Just had its Mobil 1 oil changed and K&N filter cleaned. The top works flawlessly and neither its hydraulics or the engine leak a drop of oil. The leather interior is also in very good shape, non-smoker, but has the typical plastic finish wear and the passenger seat has a small less than an inch of seam coming undone. Also had the headliner redone. The carpeting is in excellent shape with good floor mats(just not stock ones) protecting it. The exterior is definitely straight and appears to have never been hit. It has a repaint on it with a couple very small imperfections(not bad at all) and a little scuff marks on the corners in the front. Overall the car really is in very good shape, runs out well shifts great and hugs the road tight(speaking of which the rear tires are fairly new <8K). The one part of the car I enjoy most and this is going to sound funny.... is the stereo! It has the factory Mercedes stereo made by Blaupunkt with the built in cassette player and 6 disc changer in the trunk with the Bose speaker system. This thing CRANKS and it sounds the best either top up or down. One more item is the car is surprisingly quiet on the road with the windows up no wind noise.

Mercedes working on new inline-six engines

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

Mercedes-Benz will make a return to the inline-six-cylinder engine game, according to a report from the UK's AutoCar. It's not clear what's prompting the phasing out of the current array of V6s.
We'll see the first inline-six from Mercedes in next-generation E-Class, set to debut in 2016. Following that, it'll arrive as part of a mid-cycle refresh for the C-Class in 2017. What's particularly special about the new inline-six is its modular nature, which will allow Mercedes to eventually spinoff three- and four-cylinder options, with the three-pot arriving alongside the new inline-six.
In other news, AutoCar uncovered some details on the next C-Class AMG, which will ditch its excellent 6.2-liter, AMG V8 in favor of a 4.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V8, although we've already told you about that. What we didn't know at the time, though, was that the 4.0-liter would be paired first with a new, seven-speed AMG Speedshift transmission and offer all-wheel drive. AC also reports that a nine-speed Speedshift is in the works.

Xcar drives the Mercedes-AMG C63 S

Wed, Mar 11 2015

The transition among Europe's high performance vehicles from naturally aspirated power towards turbocharging has taken time but has shown constant progress. The march seemingly started with hot hatches when models like the Volkswagen GTI quit adding displacement and finally succumbed to forced induction. Now, the change has affected the higher rungs with the latest BMW M3 and possibly even all future Porsche 911s. Of course, the question arises does this shift really matter to the driving experience? Xcar Films aims to find while taking a spirited ride in the new Mercedes-AMG C63 S. One thing is for sure; the switch from the 6.2-liter V8 in favor of the new 4.0-liter twin-turbo doesn't seem to be hurting the Merc's sound. Even with forced induction, the exhaust still emits a very angry grumble. Find out from Xcar if the rest of the new engine's attributes stack up quite so well, though. Related Video:
