BEAST MODE! Let's see.......six hundred and seventy (670) horsepower. Eight hundred and forty (840) foot/pounds of torque. Read that again and let it sink in for a minute. With this CL65, you can alter the earth’s rotation with your right foot! Want to pass a car? Press the throttle down and hang on, because you will pass the speed of light at the same time. This is a car that should always have a change of underwear kept in the trunk for unsuspecting passengers. You will not find a better 2005 CL65 on ebay or anywhere else. I mean it, and I will explain why in this ad. Now you can truly have it all. A MINT condition CL65 with only 45K original miles, fully serviced by authorized MB dealers since new, an ECU upgrade worth $1200 to give it the aforementioned 670HP, good tires and brakes, recent MB dealer inspection, and all for the price of a well-used Lexus ES350. This is IT folks. There’s no bidding and there’s no ‘make an offer’; there is just one no-haggle price and you get it ALL; a near-flawless Mercedes CL65 AMG V12 bi-turbo with a ton of power that needs nothing. The first person that appreciates this car; its condition, its options, its service history, and its upgrades, will buy it. YOU ARE SAVING $146,000 OFF OF THIS CAR’S ORIGINAL MSRP!!! It needs nothing but a new owner, and looks/drives like a brand new car. Awesome options include parktronic, keyless go, distronic, AMG sport package, trunk closer, heated/cooled/dynamic front seats, and much much more.

-- Here is your BEAST!! --

Please let me stop you now if you are looking for a cheapo CL65. They are out there, and trust me, there is nothing more expensive on this earth than a cheap CL65. Some of these cars have been neglected, leak, have faulty ABC suspensions, rattle, and generally need expensive repairs and have not been serviced or inspected by an authorized MB dealer. Not this one! It’s been serviced to within an inch of its life, and inspected twice in the last month!! It needs NOTHING, and no other CL65 you will find can compete with this car’s condition, either cosmetically or mechanically. Please read on to find out more.

Here's the deal:

-- It's a 2005 CL65 V12 twin-turbo sedan in pewter metallic over charcoal perforated leather, burl root wood trim, and charcoal carpets with alcantara headliner. It has only 45,xxx documented original miles, looks like a million bucks, and drives like a million bucks too! –

-- Exterior 9.95 out of 10 (I'm finicky) - Fantastic overall condition paint, body, glass, and trim. No dings, no dents, no scuffs. This car looks amazing, with a deep shine to the glossy black paint that's like looking into a mirror. This car looks great even under fluorescent light in a garage! You will not believe the cosmetic condition of this car inside and out. It’s THAT nice. --

-- Never any accidents, clean carfax, and most importantly wears all its original body panels, bumpers, and paint. Even the lower side-body moldings are in great shape. Chrome, rubber, glass, trim is all excellent. No oxidation, fade, wear, rust, etc. Headlights and windshield are clear and do not have ‘road-rash’.--

-- Look at the body panels.....they are perfectly straight. --

-- The wheels are 19” authentic AMG five-spokes. They are in excellent overall condition with no bends or curb rash. I have installed a staggered set of Continental tires, 245/40/19 in front and 275/35/19 in back with over 75% tread remaining. They are the best all-season wet and dry tires for this car. The car drives straight as an arrow at any speed you choose. --

-- Interior 9.95 out of 10 - The charcoal leather interior overall including all seating and door leather, seat padding, dash, console, and carpets are in amazing original condition. No dash cracks, carpet rips, very little wear of any kind on the leather (driver’s bolster shows zero wear). Everything looks and feels new; you can’t even tell anyone has been in the car. No smoking, no eating, no drinking. --

-- The door panels and trim are also in great shape, like the rest of the car. --

-- Even the headliner, trunk, and spare are perfect. --

-- This CL65 is loaded including full hand-stitched leather doors and dash, heated/cooled front seats, trunk closer, keyless go, distronic cruise, parktronic, AMG sport package, dynamic drive pulse/active front seats, CD changer, sat radio (currently active but can not promise for how long), COMAND navigation, moonroof, bi-xenon headlights, leather/wood steering shift knob, and more. Even an integrated Passport SRX remote radar/laser detector with control unit hiddn in the glovebox! --

-- This CL65 has an ECU flash that gives it 670HP and 840 ft/lbs of torque. You will likely never drive a car this powerful again in your life! No expense spared on this magnificent $183K+ original MSRP car ever. –

-- Electrical 10 out of 10 - All lights, switches, radio, windows, wipers, seat motors/memory, and power mirrors work perfectly. Headrest motors, vacuum lock system, etc. all operating properly. The HVAC system is fast to respond, and perfect with hot heat and ice-cold A/C. --

--Mechanically 10 out of 10 - Engine starts, idles, runs, and revs to redline in every gear smooth and strong. With 670HP and 840 ft/LBS of torque, you have enough to destroy a Ferrari on the road or pull a tree stump out of the ground. Transmission is smooth yet aggressive, and downshifts eagerly with lightning fast positive engagement shifts. The car runs at high speed with no vibrations or noises. There are no leaks. --

-- Engine is strong and VERY eager to run, transmission smooth and ready to drop down two gears at your command to rocket you past slower traffic. When you floor the throttle in this car, you’d better be prepared to arrive where the car is pointing RIGHT NOW. Brakes are solid and pedal feel is firm. Suspension is tight like new, but floats on a cloud just like an ABC-equipped W215 is supposed to do. ABC sport mode works perfectly. Steering nicely weighted with no play in the box. This car drives and handles like new. --

-- Look at the condition of the engine bay!!! –

-- It has all its books, working wireless key, and complete service history including all warranty records. With only 45K miles, this car is not even broken in yet! All you have to do is drive. --

-- The BIN price, besides the tires mentioned above, ECU flash for 670HP, and more, also includes mats and a full $200 detailing including engine bay, carpet shampoo, leather conditioning, orbital polishing, etc. I'll also include ToughGuard paint protectant. This stuff is simply amazing for durability, as it will last up to five YEARS. Dealers charge up to $695 for this stuff! That’s over $3,500 in value all included at the BIN price! --

-- Nits: Nothing, to be honest, The car is basically as close to new as a 2005 car can be. A few minor marks to the underside of the front lip spoiler, a few tiny rock chips, etc. THAT'S IT. NOTHING ELSE. And if I did not mention those, it's unlikely anyone would even notice...I just want to be up front and honest. --

-- I have good feedback, and sold many Audis, Acuras, and Benzes that the new owners are thrilled with. They and others have offered to act as references to verify that I am honest in my descriptions of the cars I sell, and you are welcome to contact them. --

THIS IS A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME CAR, AND IT'S AN UNBELIEVABLE DEAL!!

2016 Mercedes-Benz Metris hits US in October, priced from $28,950*

Wed, Mar 4 2015

A Mercedes is hardly what we'd call a budget proposition for most, but everything being relative, what's the cheapest Mercedes you can buy in America? That used to be the C-Class, but not at the $40k it's pushing these days. The CLA or GLA start at over $31k, so one of those must be it... right? Keep trying. And the Smart Fortwo doesn't count. No, the most cost-effective Mercedes you can get in America is the one you're looking at here. It's the new Metris van, and it starts at just $28,950 (*plus a $995 destination fee). Joining the Sprinter (which starts at upwards of $35k), the Metris is Benz's new midsize van – filling a niche in between small vans like the Nissan NV200 or Ford Transit Connect and fullsize ones like the aforementioned Sprinter. It's about as long as the Dodge Caravan-based Ram C/V, but narrower, taller and with significantly more payload and cargo space. Mercedes calls it "right-sized," and evidently hopes commercial drivers and fleet operators will agree. Now if you've never heard the name Metris, you were probably distracted by all the glitz and glamor when Mercedes presented four of them at the SEMA show late last year. But that's alright, because it's a new nameplate: it's essentially the same as the Vito sold overseas, where it will continue carrying that same name, while being sold in North America as the Metris. Both cargo and passenger versions will be offered, the latter starting at $32,500 (plus that $995 destination fee). Power comes from a four-cylinder gasoline engine driving 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a seven-speed automatic transmission. It's also got all the electronic bells and whistles you'd expect from a Mercedes, including fuel-efficiency and safety equipment – but stopping short, of course, of the luxury features. This is not that kind of Mercedes, and the luxed-up V-Class version offered overseas won't be making it Stateside. The Metris is being showcased this week at the NTEA work truck show in Indianapolis, with deliveries set to commence this coming October through a network of over 200 Mercedes van dealers across America, who will offer it alongside the larger Sprinter. MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS MIDSIZE COMMERCIAL VAN MAKES ITS DEBUT AT NTEA WORK TRUCK SHOW - "Mercedes-Benz Metris": The next big thing is mid-sized. - Introduction of the "Mercedes-Benz Metris" nameplate for the U.S.

Five reasons to love, or hate, the culture of German cars

Thu, Mar 5 2015

A few months back, we took a 500-foot view of the culture of American cars, dissecting prides and prejudices on our way to the conclusion that automotive allegiances can be simultaneously embraced and derided. We had so much fun with the narrative that we decided to do it again, this time taking a look at Germany and its world-renowned lineup of automakers, including the likes of Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Volkswagen, among others. Join us below as we discuss the points and counterpoints that make or have made the German auto industry what it is today. And remember, Germany did pretty much invent the automobile, after all... The V12 Engine If America is known for the proliferation of the V8 engine, an argument could be made that Germany owns the V12. Yes, of course, other companies have created V12 engines – Ferrari, Jaguar and Lamborghini immediately come to mind – but the big 12-cylinder powerplants from BMW and Mercedes-Benz, in particular, have proven to be some of the most effortless, luxurious and downright over-built engines the world has ever seen. These days, having 12 cylinders is more a case of wretched excess than ever before, and yet, you can still stroll into your local BMW or Mercedes dealership and get a brand-new 760i, S600 or even an over-the-top G65 AMG, efficiency be damned. Best of all, since the majority of these German powerhouses depreciate as fast as an anchor sinks, nearly any auto enthusiast who dreams of a dozen cylinders can satisfy their carnal desires. Current Star: 2016 Mercedes-Maybach S600 View 28 Photos Diesel Engines Remember how we talked about those glorious V12 engines? Well, you can even get one from Audi that runs on diesel. If your compression-ignition fantasies err more on the side of fuel savings, that's no problem, either. Audi, BMW, Mercedes and Volkswagen have got you covered, with engines starting as small as 800 cubic centimeters (Smart Fortwo). If you want something a little more practical, it's hard to argue with a VW Golf TDI, which will provide plenty of space for you and three of your best friends, plus a fair bit of luggage, all while returning 50-ish miles per gallon. For the purposes of this discussion, we'd rather focus on the asinine levels of torque provided by Germany's high-end diesel engines than the lower-end fuel sippers.

2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class vs big luxury off-roaders: How they compare on paper

Mon, May 7 2018

During our first drive of the 2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class, the all-new SUV's product manager was asked to identify competitors that might have been benchmarked in its development. The look on his face was about the same as if someone had asked him to recite King Lear in Klingon. As far as Andreas Hoeppel was concerned, the G 550 and AMG G 63 doesn't actually have a rival, or at least something the engineers and designers thought to compare it against. The G-Class is a G-Class, who cares what the other guys are doing? Well, in case you care, we figured we'd plug the new G-Class' specs into the old Autoblog Comparo Generator 3000 (TM) to see how the G 550 and AMG G 63 compare to the Range Rover and its mightiest SVAutobiography Dynamic model, plus the Lexus LX 570 and Bentley Bentayga V8. Frankly, Heir Hoeppel was onto something as each of these is wildly different. But, they do share some common elements: giant size and weight, ultra-lux interiors, and far more off-roading capability than other luxury SUVs offer and any of its owners are likely to ever utilize. Sad. So enjoy this trip down specification lane, and if you're still left hungry, you can always check out our Range Rover comparison or create your very own comparo. Off-Road Clearances and Capability All the fancy off-roading software and special cameras in the world won't do you a lick of good if your SUV is too close to the ground or has low-hanging body work that'll get easily ripped off. As such, check out each of these uber-SUV's ground clearance, approach and departure angles, and wading/fording depths. In this case, the Range Rover has an advantage due to its air suspension that can raise itself into an Off-Roading height that's a whopping 2 inches higher than the new G-Wagen. Sadly for itself, Lexus only provides figures for its air suspension when in normal height. It could match or surpass the Range Rover for all we know (but doubt it). As Land Rover does provide figures for the Range Rover's approach and departure angles in normal and Off-Road height, you can get an idea of just how much clearance the new G-Wagen has without any fancy (and expensive to fix) raising and lowering air suspension hardware. In fact, its departure angle is better than even the Range Rover's Off-Road height. Bentley doesn't provide any such information despite touting the Bentayga's surprising off-roading talents.
