1986 Mercedes Benz 400-series 420SEL
$100 deposit expected within two days. Pick-up expected within 7 days after end of auction. We are located in NE Portland. We will accept cash or bank/cashiers check. I bought this car in about 2003 or 2004. It was bought from a Mercedes mechanic who put in a rebuilt engine. In about 2006 it had a new transmission put in. This car sat around for the past couple of years so it's not in pristine condition. We put in a new battery, and it started right up. It probably needs work I don't know about. The engine starts and works great. It has a nice smooth ride and lots of leg room. The license plate stickers are expired, but it never had a problem passing DEQ. I always used the highest quality gas. It's never been in a crash. This is an 'as is' car. Drive home at your own risk. If it needs to go far you might want to tow it. It probably needs things like water/antifreeze. It needs whatever a car that's been sitting around needs. There is a piece of the car that is missing. You can see it in the picture. It's the small part in front of the rear right tire. Miles: 207882 (rebuilt engine put in at about 180,000) Replaced transmission in about 2006. Some of the brakes were replaced in 2011. VIN WDBCA35D5GA268262 Things that need to be fixed: windshield wipers the electric locks (locks work fine manually) the electric windows Weird things: The oil light lights up when the car is warmed up. It has done this since I got it. The mechanic who put in the engine said the sensor needs to be reset. |

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Fri, 15 Nov 2013The biggest misconception about the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series is that it's simply a higher-performing version of the SLS GT - a closer look, or better yet, a few hot laps on a high-speed racing circuit, reveals that is anything but the case.
Launched in the States in mid-2011, the standard SLS GT is a 583-horsepower, all-aluminum, gull-wing coupe with performance that positions it near the top of the exotic segment. While the AMG team at Mercedes-Benz could have left it alone, their experience with the SLS AMG GT3 race car said there was room for improvement, so they devised the SLS Black Series. The transformation from SLS GT to SLS Black Series is extensive, with no fewer than 17 different significant enhancements.
The engine mapping, crankshaft, connecting rods, valve-train, intake, exhaust and cooling are all modified and the engine's redline bumps up from 7,200 to 8,000 rpm, which pushes output of the hand-built 6.3-liter V8 to 622 horsepower. The power steering receives a new ratio, a coil-over AMG Adaptive Performance suspension is installed along with underbody braces, the track is widened, two-piece carbon-ceramic brakes replace iron rotors at each corner and a lightweight titanium exhaust is fitted beneath. The AMG Speedshift seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox is modified and an electronically controlled AMG rear differential lock ensures the power goes to the pavement. Last on the mechanical upgrades are new lightweight forged wheels (10x19 inches front and 12x20 inches rear) wrapped in special R-compound Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.
