2011 Mercedes G550 for sale. Runs perfectly. All service up to date. Model Overview
The G-Class is powered by a 382-horsepower, 5.5L V8, while the high-performance G55 AMG gets a supercharged version
good for 500 hp. The G55 can dash to 60 mph in just 5.4 seconds, according to Mercedes-Benz. Fuel economy isn't
stellar, but it's reasonable considering what the G-Class was built for: 12 mpg city and 15 highway. The AMG
version achieves 11 city and 13 highway. Thanks to a serious mechanical 4-wheel-drive system, complemented by
modern electronics, the G-Class has the goods for serious off-roading as well as simply taking on slippery road
conditions. The system comes with three differential locks to distribute power in whatever way is best for the
conditions. On- or off-road, traction is aided by the electronic stability control system, which also helps
distribute power left to right. The G-Class is an old-style, truck-like SUV in look and feel, yet its interior is
appointed with top-notch luxury materials, including premium leather, burl walnut trim and wood and leather trim
elsewhere. The G55 AMG adds a Nappa leather interior and natural maple trim, plus 5-spoke wheels, special chrome
trim, and illuminated doorsills on the outside. Inside, the G-Class provides a very upright driving position that's
quite different than in any other vehicle from the brand's lineup; back seats have enough room for adults, but
they're not as easily reconfigurable for cargo compared to most modern SUVs. Also, the back door is hinged on the
side rather than the top. Cruise control, a dual-zone automatic climate control system, rear heated seats and a
parking assistant are included with the G550, as well as a heated steering wheel and heated and ventilated
multi-contour front seats. The latest version of Mercedes-Benz COMAND screen-based interface is included on the G55
AMG, plus voice controls, a Bluetooth hands-free calling interface. There's also a premium, 610-watt harman/kardon
audio system that also features an SD memory card slot, iPod connectivity and Sirius satellite radio and HD radio
tuners. The navigation system includes a 40-GB hard drive as well as live traffic info and Zagat restaurant
ratings.

Mercedes-Benz introduces new heavy security M-Class Guard model
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz has unveiled a new addition to the company's line of personal security vehicles. The M-Class Guard features bullet-proof side windows made with special laminated glazing and a polycarbonate inner layer to protect occupants from shards of glass. Mercedes says the M-Class Guard meets protection level VR4 according to the Bullet Resistant Vehicles 2009 standards, based on testing from the independent Ulm-based Ballistics Bureau, which means it can withstand .357 Magnum and .44 fire from multiple angles. It can also stand up to the DM51 hand grenade when equipped with optional floor armoring. Why skimp?
Buyers looking for protection from the world's literal slings and arrows can opt for the ML350 BlueTEC with its 258 horsepower 3.0-liter turbodiesel engine. With 457 pound-feet of torque, the oil-burner should have no trouble hustling the privileged class about. Of course, the ML500 offers a bit more punch courtesy of a 4.6-liter twin-turbo V8 with 408 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque. Prices start at 105,050 euros for the diesel and 118,650 euros for the V8. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale
Fri, 10 May 2013There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.
Daimler names Bernd Pischetsrieder to supervisory board
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Some executives in the automotive industry stay with one company for their entire careers, while others bounce from one to the other, often leaving their indelible mark on each automaker at which they serve. Bob Lutz is certainly an example of the latter. So is Lee Iacocca, having presided over Ford and later charing the Chrysler board. Carlos Tavares was chief operating officer of Renault before being nominated as chief executive at PSA Peugeot Citroën. But as far as the Germans go, nobody's jumped from the leadership of one automaker to the next quite like Bernd Pischetsrieder - especially now that he's been named to the supervisory board of Mercedes-Benz parent company Daimler.
An engineer by training, Pischetsrieder started his career at BMW in 1973, eventually rising to the office of CEO after twenty years. There he remained until 1999, only to be dismissed after orchestrating BMW's takeover of the Rover Group (of which only the Mini brand remains in the company's portfolio, the other brands having been sold off after his dismissal).
The next year he was named chairman of Volkswagen's Seat brand, and rose to the chairmanship of the entire Volkswagen Group two years later. Despite a largely successful four-year tenure (that gave birth, incidentally, to the Bugatti Veyron), disagreements with supervisory board chairman Ferdinand Piëch saw him leave the helm at VW AG, focusing his attention on the Scania truck division. He's since been touted as a potential chief executive for Opel and for Continental, but neither potential was apparently realized.
