NO RESERVE AUCTION. I WILL DELIVER ANYWHERE IN THE USA IF YOU BUY IT NOW.
Selling my excellent example of an early 300 turbo diesel coupe. The coupes are getting harder and harder to find in good shape, they made a very limited number of them compared to the sedans and wagons. This car has only had two owners and has been very well taken care of. I love this car and it is hard for me to let it go but I am afraid I don't have the room in my garage for it anymore. It runs and drives excellently, will start easy on the coldest of mornings. The transmission fluid has just been changed and it shifts smooth. All the lights work, and all the power options work with the exception of the passenger window, which will roll down but needs a little help to roll back up. I believe the mechanism needs to be lubricated. The interior is an 8/10, it is complete, clean, and in excellent shape. The seats have minor cracking but in general the leather is still soft and smooth. I have to be honest, this car was smoked in by the original owner, but not by me. The smell is still noticeable but I will have the car shampooed and ozonated before delivery. The body is also an 8/10. The paint is mint, there are no dings or dents or scratches. There is an area of surface rust near the seam to the side of the drivers side tail light. The trunk, undercarriage, floorpans, battery tray etc are rust free. The wheels are in good condition and come with a set of nearly new studded snow tires on them ( a necessity on a rwd car in utah) and also a set of summer tires with at least 50% tread left. The car is quiet, smooth and powerful. It cruises at 100mph as easily as it does 30. It is an extremely nice car to drive. The motor seeps some oil but does not burn any. I would not hesitate to get in this car and drive it coast to coast. It has some vibration at idle, and it may need a passenger side motor mount, or it may be just a diesel thing, I've never owned another so I have no point of reference. It had the timing done about 1 year ago. I have every dealer maintenance record until almost 200,000 miles, and many service records from 200k till 280. I know this is my first sale on ebay, so please contact me if you feel uncomfortable in any way. You are free to message me, text me or call me at any time! I can provide more pictures and videos upon request. PAYMENT: Cashiers Check will be the only method of payment I will be accepting. I will also take cash in person locally. I am not requiring a deposit, but all I can ask is that you DO NOT BID if you are not a serious buyer. There are bidders out there who genuinely want the car, so please let them have a fair auction for it. SHIPPING: Shipping is up to you, but you are more than welcome to contact me to arrange delivery by me. I can deliver it to you cheaper than a shipping company if you live in the western states. Also, please keep in mind that I will deliver it any where in the country if you use the buy it now price! The car has a clean clear utah title in hand ready to sell. PLEASE READ THE WHOLE DESCRIPTION BEFORE BIDDING. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME ANY TIME AT 801-709-4666 OR MESSAGE ME THROUGH EBAY. |

Erebus Motorsport Mercedes E-Class V8 Supercar completes the field [w/videos]
Sat, 23 Feb 2013Ford, Holden and Nissan introduced their V8 Supercar challengers a while back. Erebus Motorport, whose racing program got the green light not even 120 days ago, has finally shown off the Mercedes-Benz E-Class racer that will complete this year's field of entries. The first AMG race car ever to be built outside of Germany, it's an Australian-built tube-frame chassis specced to the series' Car of Tomorrow rules, fitted with body panels that channel the E63 AMG.
Supported by AMG Customer Motorsport, the 5.0-liter engine is provided by HWA in Germany, the racing arm of AMG. Regulations dictate that it have roughly 650 horsepower, a redline between 7,000 and 7,500 rpm and a torque curve that matches the parity baseline set for all cars.
Lee Holdsworth, Tim Slade and Maro Engel will drive the three team cars, each with different sponsors. Their first showing will be at the Clipsal 500 on March 3 in Adelaide, here in the US we'll get to see them in May at the Circuit of the Americas. Check out the videos below of the Erebus car starting up at its launch, and footage of all of this year's cars doing pre-season testing on track together.
Brabus to storm Geneva with 800-hp version of Mercedes SL65 AMG
Wed, 27 Feb 2013At no point during our recent drive of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG did we ever think, "You know, this thing sure is slow." After all, Merc's range-topping SL comes fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 capable of sending 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels. But just in case you're still all "meh" about what the SL65 throws down, Brabus will gladly come to your rescue with this, the 800 Roadster.
As its name suggests, the 800 Roadster ups the V12's power figures to 800 horsepower and - wait for it - 1,047 pound-feet of torque. Don't get too excited, though - that torque number has been electronically limited to a measly 811 lb-ft since, you know, the transmission would probably explode if you tried to put the full force through it. Nevertheless, these represent increases of 79 hp and 73 lb-ft over the standard SL65, and that means the 800 Roadster can shoot to 62 miles per hour in just 3.7 seconds - two-tenths of a second quicker than the Merc its based on. More impressively, hitting 124 mph takes just under 10 seconds, and the droptop will finally top out at an electronically limited - limited! - 217 mph. Holy smokes.
To manage all of that speed, Brabus has engineered a special carbon fiber aero kit that reduces lift, and a unique control module for the SL65's active body control suspension lowers the ride height by one full inch. The 800 Roadster rides on new 20-inch wheels, and a unique limited-slip rear differential was added, featuring a 40 percent locking rate that further enhances performance when you're attempting to control the beast at its limits. Interior upgrades include new leather and alcantara surfaces throughout the cabin, including a leather-clad trunk.
Mercedes-AMG considering turbo fours, hybrid sixes for future performance sedans
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Think of the letters AMG and you'll probably end up picturing a performance sedan with a big V8. Such has become, after all, the Mercedes turning division's calling card. But with the introduction of its 2.0-liter turbo four, AMG is working at turning that notion on its head.
The highly potent engine produces 355 horsepower and is presently installed in the A45 AMG hatchback, CLA45 AMG sedan and GLA45 AMG crossover, giving Benz's smallest family a full range of performance models. But that might not be the full extent of the high-strung four-pot's use.
Speaking with AMG boss Tobias Moers, Britain's What Car? magazine reports that Affalterbach is considering slotting the same engine into larger models, particularly performance sedans like the C-Class. As we recently reported, Mercedes is already preparing to up the power from the turbo V6 in the C400 to slot a C450 Sport in below the C63 AMG. The C450 is expected to offer around 367 horsepower where the CLA45 AMG et al pack 355, but the lighter weight of the four-cylinder engine would likely offset the truancy of those extra dozen horses. Of course such a prospect would be much further down the pipeline than the C450 Sport which is expected to arrive much sooner.
