1989 MEREDES 560SL, THE LAST YEAR OF THE LEGENDARY 107 SL, A RUNNING AND DRIVING APPRECIATING CLASSIC THAT NEEDS ONLY THE MOST MINOR OF TLC TO BRING IT BACK  TO GLORY. I HAVE OWNED/RESTORED 23 107 SL'S OVER MY LIFETIME AND IT IS MY SECOND FAVORITE CAR BEHIND THE LATE 70'S PORSCHE 930, WHICH INCIDENTALLY IS WHY I'M SELLING THE SL. JUST BOUGHT A 79' 930 WITH RIDICULOUSLY LOW MILES. HAVE ONLY ONE GARAGE SPOT LEFT, SO I MADE THE CHOICE IN FAVOR OF THE 930.

I PURCHASED THE SL LAST YEAR FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER(YES, IT HAD ONE OWNER FOR THE FIRST 23 YEARS OF IT'S 24 YEAR LIFE). A WELL TO DO ELDERLY GENT ON LONG ISLAND WHO SAID HE SPENT AS MUCH ON MAINTENANCE OVER THE YEARS AS THE CAR COST WHEN HE BOUGHT IT NEW. I ASKED FOR SERVICE RECORDS BUT HE WAS A LITTLE FOGGY ON WHERE THEY MAY BE, BUT HE DID PROVIDE SOME IN EXCESS OF $22,000+. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES STRONG, STARTS RIGHT UP, AND NEVER SMOKES COLD OR HOT. TRANNY SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD. A/C WORKS BUT SHOULD BE COLDER. CENTRAL LOCKING WORKS AS IT SHOULD. CORRECT HARDTOP INCLUDED. THIS IS WHAT I JUST DID:   ---JUST INSTALLED NEW SOFTOP---SEATS LOOK GOOD BUT A LITTLE DRY IN THE SEAMS. APPLIED LEATHER REJUVENATOR WHICH WORKED WELL---ABS AND SRS LIGHTS CYCLE CORRECTLY---INSTALLED NEW LEATHER ARMREST COVER---HAS SONY TUNER W/ REMOTE AND 6X9 SPEAKERS IN DECK, SOUNDS GOOD---CUSTOM LEATHER WHEELSKIN ON STEERING WHEEL---SHIFT CONSOLE WOOD RESTORED---VISORS EXCELLENT---DASH HAS 1 OR 2 CRACKS---OLDER REPAINT SHOWS WELL---#702 SMOKE SILVER---CORRECT CHROME WHEEL ARCH MOLDINGS AND DOOR EDGE GUARDS---CORRECT CHROME ALLOYS WITH ALMOST NEW CONTI'S---4 SPARE RIMS INCLUDED---NEW BRAKES AND SENSORS ALL AROUND---NEW FRONT CALIPERS---NEW POWER ANTENNA---NEW EXHAUST AND HANGERS FROM MIDDLE - BACK---NEW BOSCH PLATINUM 4 PLUGS---NEW IDLE CONTROL VALVE---NEW IDLE MODULE---NEW FOG LIGHT LENSES---NEW FUEL INJECTOR NOZZLES, SEALS, AND HOSES---NEW VALVE COVER GASKETS---NEW STEERING SHOCK/DAMPER---NEW TOP FUEL LINE AND FUEL COOLER LINE($450 FROM BENZ)---IF YOUR COUNTING, THAT'S $6000 + IN PARTS AND LABOR---ORIGINAL MANUALS, TOOLS AND FIRSTAID KIT INCLUDED.

THINGS THAT NEED A LITTLE TLC...: TOP OF DASH HAS 1 OR 2 CRACKS. NOT TERRIBLE BUT A DASH COVER WOULD QUICKLY FIX THIS---TRANNY LEAKS A LITTLE INTERMITTENTLY, COULD USE A FILTER KIT W/ GASKET---PLUGS ARE NEW BUT REST OF TUNE UP PARTS WOULD COMPLETE THE TUNE UP----HAS A FEW CHIPS HERE AND THERE BUT NOT MANY---COUPLE OF BULBS ARE OUT

OVERALL IT IS A WELL-LOVED AND CARED-FOR EXAMPLE OF A CLASSIC THAT WILL ONLY INCREASE IN VALUE. 1989 IS THE LAST AND MOST REFINED YEAR FOR THESE CARS. IT IS SOLD "AS IS", AS IT IS A 24 YEAR OLD CAR AND WAS DRIVEN 9000 MILES/YEAR ON AVERAGE, BUT IT HAS PLENTY OF LIFE LEFT, A TIMELESS LOOK, AND PLENTY OF MONETARY APPRECIATION JUST AROUND THE CORNER. PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. I CAN TALK ABOUT THESE CARS ALL DAY!!! GOOD LUCK!!!

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.

Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 teases gullwing doors in video

Tue, Aug 16 2016

Because these are the times we live in, automakers tease their biggest and best debuts mercilessly before finally dropping the curtain. That's why we're writing about the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Concept again. Here's a new video, posted on Mercedes' Instagram page, showing even more of the hulking two-door coupe. For one, it looks like Mercedes is revisiting gullwing doors. There's a brief snippet of the doors in the open position with a red light – possibly a brake light – bisecting the roof. The video also gives us a couple of good looks at the taillights, which are super-model skinny, just like the lamps up front. Look close at the rear three-quarter cut, and you'll spot a strong chrome strip that accentuates and breaks up those beefy rear haunches. It's hard to tell where they fit in with the chrome strips on the front fenders and hood, so we'll probably need to wait until the big debut to see how it all works out. As we've said twice already, the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 debuts on August 18. Stay tuned. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
