Good Day, I am selling my 1987 Mercedes benz 300 SDL luxury edition. A wise family member once told me that when you buy a used car you're not buying a car so much as you are buying the person selling it. Keeping that in mind I want to be as honest and forthcoming with the information provided in this listing as possible. I bought this vehicle from an acquaintance who bought it from a local dealer who bought it from an auction out here in Las Vegas. The car has passed through the hands of several owners. Being that this is easily a collector's car this is nothing out of the ordinary. I have a detailed background check through "auto-check" so you may see for yourself.
I have a clean and clear title in hand. The vehicle runs well. Everything works: powered locks, powered windows (except rear passenger window does not have power, may need a new mount , not a hard fix), motor controlled seat adjustment still works great, all lights work, and mirrors.
The engine is a 3 liter 6-cylinder diesel engine. My experience with these engines tell me they are true work horses and can virtually outlive the roads on which they drive. The car does need to be started in neutral if she is not warmed up , when warmed up she will start just fine from park (This is caused by the "neutral safety switch" which can easily be replaced, the part runs anywhere from $50-$75 new. This "DOES NOT" affect how she drives.)
She also has brand new tires installed. Original paint, some oxidation on the roof and the hood but she still shines.The interior of the car could some tlc and work when it comes to the aesthetics , of which do not compromise the usability of the car. The glove box stays open as the latch needs to be repaired. The seats are a little cracked up, age has taken its toll on the center wood panel . Passenger seat will also need to be fixed as the left side of the seat has a broken weld allowing it to lean further back then it should when sitting in it. There is also a tear on the upper middle portion of the rear seats as well as a few on the lower portion of the rear seats.
Things to keep in mind when looking at this car. This is a collectible classic. Mercedes only produced 13,830 of these cars and were only in production for two years, 1986 and 1987. they were sold only in the U.S. and Canada. It was a luxurious vehicle that in its heyday off the lot would cost buyers $45,000-$50,000, and these were prices from 27 years ago.
What I tried to capture is everything I would like to see if I was looking at this vehicle. I didn't spruce her up or try to make her look like anything she isn't. She could use a little wash and vacuuming. If there is anything else I could do for you please feel free to let me know, I am available to take more pictures and answer any of your questions.
Information to the auction winner: Payment is due in full within 3 days of the auction's close. I would prefer to shake your hand and give you the keys, title, and bill of sale in person , however if you cant pick up the vehichle in person we can make arrangments . Once payment in full has been recieved If you are not able to make it down for me to hand you the the title and bill of sale in person I will send certified mail the title and a completed bill of sale ( of which you will still need to sign once it reaches you). All signatures on the bill of sale must be original. If you are able to make it to Las Vegas to pick the vehicle up I am not against going to the dmv with you to assure smooth transfer of ownership out of good faith. It will however be up to you to arrange pickup or the shipping of this vehicle. I understand arrangements may need to be made so Im flexible on when you need to take her, Just dont leave me waiting a month for somebody to come and bring her home, as Im not a storage unit... Good luck and I am sure it will be a pleasure doing business with you.
On Mar-11-13 at 22:18:05 PDT, seller added the following information:
I would also like to add that I had a mechanic look it over before I bought it, you are welcome to do the same. Send me a message to set up the details if you would like to have somebody look at it or if you would like to see it yourself, I will check frequently. The car is sold as it is. Good luck to you all.

XCAR marks 20-year anniversary of Senna's passing with Mercedes 190E Cosworth
Thu, 01 May 2014While the automotive world is focusing on the twentieth anniversary of Ayrton Senna's death, there was much, much more to the legendary driver than his untimely passing at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
XCAR has the story of a younger Senna, who, by a stroke of luck, found himself matched up against a veritable dream team of nine Formula One champions, not to mention a cadre of German touring car aces. A "probably still pissed (drunk)" James Hunt, hard-driving Niki Lauda and future champion and rival Alain Prost, were in attendance for the one-off, spec race, which was put on by Mercedes-Benz, in honor of the opening of the Nürburgring's Grand Prix circuit. And Senna was on hand with the explicit goal of besting them all.
Each driver was handed a lightly modified, but brand-new 190E 2.3-16 Cosworth, a car that can best be though of as the distant ancestor of the lovable C63 AMG. As for the race itself, well, it was sort of like an introduction of what the sport could come to expect from the Brazilian.

Editors' Picks August 2021 | Honda Civic, Mercedes S-Class and more
Thu, Sep 9 2021This month of Editors' Picks saw us award the honor to a couple of redesigned stalwarts like the Honda Civic and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Plus, a new crossover that splits the difference between the compact and subcompact class takes home the prize. On top of this, we'll introduce you to a new term: midcompact. We'll be using this to describe those in-between crossovers that are a tad too small to be considered compact, but too large to neatly fit into the subcompact class. For a few examples of these "midcompact" cars, we'll point you to the Ford Bronco Sport, Kia Seltos and VW Seltos. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in August that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Genesis G70 2022 Genesis G70 View 26 Photos Quick take: Genesis hits all the right buttons with its G70. It's attractive, fun to drive and can be had for a fair price. Enthusiasts should give it a shot before taking home one of its German competitors. Score: 8 What it competes with: Alfa Romeo Giulia, Lexus IS, Acura TLX, Infiniti Q50, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Cadillac CT4, Volvo S60 Pros: Sharp handler, stunning exterior looks, strong engines Cons: Average interior, loses manual option, small backseat and trunk From the editors: News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "I was already a big fan of the Genesis G70. It has brilliant handling, and the twin-turbo V6 is a beast. It's even a bargain against the competition. And Genesis just made it look a lot better. I wish they'd done a bit more to update the interior, but it's still not a bad cabin. Besides, you won't think too much about it when you're hustling down a fun back road." Features Editor James Riswick — "Yes, it is small, but in a sport sedan segment where "sport" means increasingly less, the G70 still delivers (in part because of that smallness).
