I am offering for your consideration 1960 Mercedes-Benz 190 Ponton.
This was my father's car since new.
It lived with us in Upstate New York until 1975, then we moved down here to Florida
and it has been here since.
My father drove it sporadically, he always had it maintained well.
I recently inherited it.
I would love to be able to keep it but sometimes we all have to let go of things that we love.

About the car:

1960 Mercedes-Benz 190

- VIN # 121.010-10-03269
- exterior color is DB040G black (old and original, still shines, with normal scratches and imperfections
what a color of a 50+ year old car should have) - not perfect, of course, but nothing to be ashamed of
- the red interior is original too (mother says that it was redone about 10 years ago), seats have no rips
or tears and are very strong and comfortable
- carpets are less than a year old
- all the glass is original (SEKURIT), present, with no discoloration or any kind of chips or cracks
- bumpers are tired (painted with chrome paint, could serve the purpose for a couple more years)
- headliner is missing
- all the windows work properly
- all the gauges, lights and horn work properly (right front fender turn signal light cover is missing)
- brakes work the way they should
- exhaust is in excellent condition
- all 4 tires (Firestone 185/80/13", white-wall) are less than a year old (less then 300 miles on them)

The car runs, drives and performs really nice. It always (even after days) starts right up. It does not smoke at all.
It runs smooth (unbelievable how smooth).
The engine is powerful and quiet.
All the gears shift without hesitation and with no strange or unusual noises.
The car will go 65-70 mph but, honestly, the engine sounds the best (barely to be heard) at around 50 mph.
I would dare driving this car to Los Angeles and back, without any hesitation.

Original books, manuals, tools in pouch (rusty), jack and spare tire are included and will come with the car.
Title/Registration is clear, in my hand and ready to be transferred.

I am offering this car worldwide.
I will help have it shipped to anywhere in the world (we have a port here in Jacksonville).

Feel free to ask any questions that you might have.

$500,- via PayPal right after the auction end, balance due 3-5 days later via wire-transfer.

Thank you!

And good luck by bidding!

YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.

Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid ready for 'major role' in urban areas

Fri, Jan 17 2014

We finally got a clear look at the Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid at the Frankfurt Motor Show last fall, but it took until this week to learn what the vision (see what we did there) is that Mercedes-Benz has for the PHEV. Despite it's generous size, Mercedes thinks this is a vehicle that will work well in urban areas. Speaking to members of the media during the Detroit Auto Show, Thomas Weber, Daimler AG management board member and research and development chief for Mercedes-Benz cars, said that the S500 PHEV, "will play a major role in congested areas" and that it will offer "a lot of driving pleasure." Part of that pleasure will come from a 0-62 mile-per-hour time of around 5.5 seconds thanks to a turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6 and an 80-kilowatt electric motor. The PHEV also has a 19-mile EV range, which will put it at the bottom end of the Three-Pointed star plug-in lineup. The upcoming C-Class plug-in, for example, will likely go, "closer to 50 km [31 miles]," Weber said, according to Green Car Reports. The S500 PHEV will go on sale in Europe later this year and will come to the US in early 2015 but there is no timeline, yet, for the C-Class plug-in (and the standard gas-electric hybrid version) or the even-more-future E-Class hybrids.

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 – winning all but three, scoring eleven one-two finishes and landing on the podium at each and every one.
