This 2012 G550 is the rarer Edition Select model - MSRP new $114,875 - at the Buy-It-Now price of $69,800 you are savings over $40K from new.  This is a one owner – accident and damage free G550 – sold and serviced at our Mercedes dealership. I have attached the Mercedes spec sheet showing the features and options on this beautiful black G550.

The original owner traded her black 2012 G550 with us on Saturday for a new Diamond White 2014 G550. She loved her G550 – however she wanted a color change !

This 2012 G550 has had absolutely no major issues of any kind in 77K miles – is ready to give the next owner years of trouble free driving .

The original owner is the mother of a noted professional athlete - with a strong family heritage in professional sports – and she drives across country to follow her son’s training and playing season.

This G550 is in stunning condition inside and out. I have provided 20 photos of this of the exterior and interior of this G550 in EXACT TRADE IN CONDITION as we received it in on Saturday – including shots of each exterior panel – again this is with no wash, no detailing, and no photo prep whatsoever.

I am a Mercedes AMG owner and 30 year Mercedes owner/enthusiast – and I am meticulous when it comes to grading the condition of a great Mercedes like this G550.

I believe in 100% accuracy - my eyes are your eyes – and again I am presenting this G550 in exact condition at traded in with no detailing work of any kind.

Mechanically I rate this G550 a 10 out of 10: The original owner has been strictly diligent with scheduled Mercedes maintenance with us – and our service department has been twice named by Mercedes in the Top 50 Best-Of-The-Best in the country – this is a rock solid G550 as proven by its service history with us.

Our service records show there have only been two very minor mechanical issues in 77K miles: at 54K the front wiper motor and windshield washer pump were replaced – and very early on at 6K miles the fuel tank sensor required replaced. There have been absolutely no other mechanical issues of any kind.

This G550 will be delivered with Mercedes 80K recommended service completed. Front brake pads and rotors were replaced recently at 67K miles. Rear brake pads and rotors will be inspected and serviced as necessary as part of the 80K service as well. Tires are recent Yokohama Geolanders – very solid highway tire choice for the G-Wagen – and all tires show over 85% remaining tread life and there no signs of any abnormal wear of any kind.

Exterior I rate this G550 a 9.5 out of 10: The photos show this is a stunning G550 that shines and glows like a new 2014. There are absolutely no signs of any unreported accidents or any body work of any kind. There are no dings or marks of any kind on any of the body panels. My 1/2 point deduction is for fewer than 12 minor pin-head size rock chips on the front hood lip and front air dam – normal road wear from a 2012 G550 – this G550 does not have any major road rash on the front air dam or hood that some might expect at this mileage.

Interior I rate this G550 a 9.8 out of 10: The Designo leather interior looks and feels as new. There are no rub or wear marks of any kind on the side bolsters of the front seats, front seat cushions are unwrinkled and smooth. The interior Piano Black wood is unmarked and no scratches of any kind. My 2/10 point deduction is realistic as compared to a fresh factory delivery - there are no specific interior items.

If you are not familiar with the new gen G-Wagen introduced in 2012 – the new gen is 2012/2013/2014 – and has significant improvements in interior refinement that include a re-sculpted dash and center console, relocated COMAND infotainment center screen, and the driver the cluster screen was upgraded to color and high resolution.

This new gen G-Wagen starting 2012 also has upgraded safety and driving systems to include: LED running lights, integral turn signals in the side mirrors, the Mercedes Distronic adaptive radar cruise control was made standard, the newest Mercedes blind spot alert was made standard, and starting in 2012 both the Parktronic front/rear sensor parking system and the rear view camera were upgraded to the newest Mercedes systems as well. Also for the new gen starting in 2012 - electronic trailer stability control was added for owner’s that plan to take advantage of the G-Wagen awesome towing capability.

The G550 has the rock solid Mercedes twin-turbo 550 V8 – which most Mercedes enthusiasts feel is the very best Mercedes production V8 ever – and starting in 2012 the 550 V8 is now matched with the newest Mercedes 7G+ transmission. With the new 7G+ transmission the 550 twin turbo delivers over 382 hp and over 391 ft lbs of torque to the wheels – and the 550/7G+ power train combination makes this new gen G-Wagen gives the smoothest and most impressive G-Wagen driving experience ever !

With MSRP new of $114,875 our dealership will list this G550 locally for over $75,000.

The Buy-It-Now price of $69,800 makes this G550 is a great opportunity for the discerning Mercedes G-Wagen enthusiast – who wants to own and drive a righteous and trouble free example of the newest generation G-Wagen.

The State of Arkansas does not charge sales tax to out-of-state buyers - our dealership’s $129 handling fee includes 30 day Arkansas temp tags and a full tank of fuel.  Your Out-The-Door price is $69,929.

A phone credit card deposit of $5000 will secure this G550 for you – the balance can be paid by wire transfer or verified cashier’s check – my Financing Department can assist if you are looking to finance part of the remaining balance on best available terms.

If you plan personal pickup - we are located 20 minutes from the Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport (airport designator XNA) with daily flight service by most major airlines from anywhere in the US. We have complementary airport pickup – and we have a wide range of overnight hotel accommodations here in Bentonville Arkansas as home the world class Crystal Bridges American Art Museum and home to Walmart worldwide headquarters.

If you prefer to ship this G550 - our Transportation Department will help arrange shipping to your door  using the same insured truck carriers that we use to ship Mercedes Benz across the country. You will pay the transportation company directly for the exact insured shipping charges – there are no added fees or upcharge from our side for transportation assistance.

When Android Automotive goes in the dash, Google wins — and automakers lose data

Tue, May 22 2018

You've gotta hand it to Google for the way the Silicon Valley tech giant has made indelible inroads into the car on multiple fronts. The most obvious is with its pioneering self-driving car technology that's caused car companies to get their act together on autonomous vehicles — and also collaborate with Google. Google has more directly extended its influence and data-mining capabilities into the car with its Android Auto smartphone-projection platform that most major automakers have adopted along with Apple's CarPlay. And now it's preparing to dig even deeper into dashboards by deploying its open-source operating system, Android Automotive, beginning with Audi and Volvo. Volvo recently announced that its next-generation Sensus infotainment system will run Android Automotive as an OS and include Google's Play Store for cloud-based content, Maps for navigation and Google Assistant for voice recognition, which can even command a car's climate control. By embedding Google in the dash, Volvo says owners will get an improved connected experience. "Bringing Google services into Volvo cars will accelerate innovation in connectivity and boost our development in applications and connected services," Volvo senior vice president of R&D Henrik Green said in a statement. "Soon, Volvo drivers will have direct access to thousands of in-car apps that make daily life easier and the connected in-car experience more enjoyable." Having Android Automotive onboard could benefit drivers Β— and provide a big win for Google, since it opens a deep and lucrative new data-mining vein for the company. But it's a wave of a white flag for car companies when it comes to delivering their own cloud-based content and services. It also represents a massive data giveaway and, for Audi, a reversal of earlier reservations about letting Google get too much access to car data. Not long after Android Auto and Apple CarPlay were introduced in 2014 and most automakers eagerly embraced the technologies, several German automakers second-guessed their decision when they realized what was at stake: data. At a conference in Berlin in 2015, Audi CEO Rupert Stadler said car owners "want to be in control of their data, and not subject to monitoring." A few months earlier, Stadler stated that "the data that we collect is our data and not Google's.

Why we can't have better headlights here in the U.S.

Tue, Mar 13 2018

It wouldn't be a European auto show if we weren't teased with at least one mainstream vehicle we can't have here. At the Geneva Motor Show last week, the small but vocal contingent of shooting-brake buffs lamented that the Mazda6 wagon won't be coming to our shores, although they can take comfort in the fact that the vehicle won't get the torquey 250-horsepower 2.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine we'll get here. Mercedes-Benz also announced a new headlight technology in Geneva that likely won't be available here anytime soon. It's just the latest in a long line of innovative and potentially lifesaving front-lighting solutions that the federal government doesn't allow in this country due to outdated standards — and a current lack of leadership at the U.S. Department of Transportation. Mercedes-Benz's new Digital Light system that debuted in Geneva uses a computer chip to activate more than a million micro-reflectors to better illuminate the road ahead. The Digital Light headlamps works with the vehicle's cameras, sensors and navigation mapping to adjust lighting for the given location and situation and to detect other road users. The Digital Light technology also serves as an extended head-up display of sorts by projecting symbols on the pavement ahead to alert drivers to, say, slippery conditions or pedestrians in the road. And it can even project lines on the road in a construction zone or through tight curves to show the driver the correct path. Digital Light will be available on Mercedes-Maybach vehicles later this year, although like any technology it's bound to trickle down to less expensive vehicles. That is, if we ever get it here in the U.S. Audi, a leader in automotive lighting, has repeatedly run into snags trying to bring state-of-the-art car headlights to the U.S. The German luxury automaker's recently introduced matrix laser headlight system, which performs many of the same trick as Mercedes-Benz's Digital Light, also isn't legal on U.S. roads. And five years after the introduction of its matrix-beam LED lighting, which illuminates more of the road without blinding oncoming motorists with brights by simultaneously operating high and low beams, Audi still can't bring that technology to the U.S. either.

Mercedes celebrates with World Championship edition SL63

Mon, Dec 1 2014

Mercedes has plenty to be celebrating at the moment, having just won the Formula One World Championship in spectacular style – taking the constructors' title by a huge margin and the top two slots in the drivers' standings as well. It almost goes without saying that the German outfit would celebrate with a special edition, and that's just what we're looking at here. Presented at a special celebratory Stars & Cars event in Stuttgart in front of 50,000 jubilant fans, the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG World Championship 2014 Collector's Edition is based on Benz's twin-turbo V8-powered roadster but with some choice upgrades. Two versions will be offered: one in black with gold accents (displayed with the Silverstone circuit layout), the other in white with silver accents (and the Hockenheim map). One was designed by Lewis Hamilton, the other by Nico Rosberg. We'll let you sort out which one was done by which, but either way there'll only be 19 examples, each dedicated to a different grand prix circuit in the championship which Mercedes positively dominated Β– winning all but three, scoring eleven one-two finishes and landing on the podium at each and every one.
