The Mercedes-Benz W116 is a series of flagship vehicles produced from September 1972 until 1979. The W116 automobiles were the first Mercedes-Benz models to be officially called S-Class. In a poll conducted by Britain's Classic & Sports Car magazine and printed in their April 1999 edition, the Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL ranked fourth on their list of the "world's greatest saloons."
This example is Silver with Navy Blue Leather interior, woodgrain dash accents, chrome trim, M117 engine (V8 with 4,520 cc displacement), power antenna, and lots of rare high-end options including integrated fog lights on the front bumper, original color-matched mercedes-benz logo hubcaps, alpine stereo w/ cassette deck, and a power sun roof with polarized windscreen. Very LOW miles for a 1976 - 90,436 miles. This car was babied by both owners, smoke-free and kept in heated garages. Car was purchased new by an executive at the Ohio Art Company (Makers of the Etch-a-Sketch toy). The current owner was a friend of the original owner and purchased the car in the late 70s. This car has tons of power, luxury and room! The 450SE sedans were widely considered one of the best cars for the money in their day, with a 190-hp fuel-injected, 4.5-liter SOHC V8, three-speed automatic transmission, independent suspension and disc brakes all round, and standard air conditioning. The SEL stretched the wheelbase four inches for back seat passengers. Condition: As you can see from the photos, this car is in very good condition considering its age. The engine starts up on command and purrs! It still has loads of power and can make it up to 100mph without trying with an exceedingly quiet passenger compartment. The dash and rear deck are in excellent condition. The rubber is in good condition. Tires in good condition. It has had a recent oil/filters/fluids change/check within the last week. The local Mercedes dealership believes it is one of the best examples in the area. That said, it has indicators of use. There are a couple of small scuff marks on the rear of the front seats (see photos). The rear seat needs a replacement rubberized horsehair (original) cushion (or a cheaper foam one is also available after market). There are wear marks on the carpet in the driver's compartment. The rubber pad on the brake pedal needs to be replaced. The radio works but the cassette deck needs to be serviced (dealership said that it only requires minor repair). The windscreen was recently replaced and the company that did it damaged the chrome trim around the front window (see photos). We are including the original window trim pieces as well as the quote and parts list from the Mercedes dealership. Additionally with this sale are included two (2) extra chrome Mercedes Logo hubcaps and a chrome Mercedes hood ornament. This car is perfect for the right owner. It is in near perfect shape but still needs a little love and a little work to get there. Wouldn't be selling it if we had the choice. This is your opportunity to own a true stylish classic. We have a very LOW Reserve on this car. Terms: $1000.00 within 24 hrs of end of auction from the winning bidder and cash or Paypal within 7 days. Pick-up or transport plans must be made within 7 days of end of auction. Cost of taxes, transfer fees, and transportation is the responsibility of the winning bidder. Thank you for your interest. |

Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG coming to the New York Auto Show
Tue, 05 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz showed off the CLA45 AMG at a private event on the eve of the Geneva Motor Show, but was determined not to let it be photographed. We can talk about it, though - after all, a teaser image was released to promote the new Sony game Drive Club. The CLA45 AMG will use the same powertrain as the A45 AMG, which means a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. And that means a small four-door coupe sedan with the highest horsepower-per-liter in the segment. It will shift through the same seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, should also run out of speed at 155 miles per hour and have that three-stage stability control system.
As with its hatch sibling, the CLA is already so aggressive on the outside - and the parent company so anxious not to demolish the sedan's 0.22 coefficient of drag - that not much has been done to the cranked-up CLA. Even the rather thin tires on the standard only get a little less thin on the hotter variant. Inside will be the telltale AMG signs, with lots of red detailing and that flat-bottomed wheel among the giveaways. We'll know more later this month when the wraps come off at the New York International Auto Show.
Audi and Mercedes both outsell BMW in January
Tue, Feb 10 2015There won't be any celebrations in Munich this month, as BMW was outsold by arch-nemeses Audi and Mercedes-Benz. The Bavarian company finished behind Audi in January, which took the top spot for the first time since June of last year, Bloomberg reports. Ingolstadt rode high on a 10-percent bump in sales, while Mercedes saw a larger 14 percent increase. BMW, meanwhile, only saw a modest 6.3-percent sales increase last month, thanks in large part to its struggles in China. The company's sales there increased at about half the rate of its chief competitors, with a 7.9-percent jump to Mercedes and Audi's roughly 15-percent increases. Perhaps more worrying for BMW, though, is that this could become something of a trend for the company. According to Bloomberg, issues with Chinese dealers who cancelled orders over sales targets and bonuses combined with what the publication calls aging models, could spell bad news for the German marque. "This looks like a pretty significant decline in growth compared to Mercedes and Audi," Bankhaus Metzler analyst Juergen Pieper told Bloomberg. "I think this will continue during the next few months." News Source: BloombergImage Credit: Matthias Schrader / AP Earnings/Financials Audi BMW Mercedes-Benz
Mercedes previews new C63 DTM racer alongside Edition 1
Fri, Sep 4 2015The new C-Class Coupe will undoubtedly be one of the main points of focus at the Mercedes-Benz pavilion in Frankfurt this year. But the Silver Star automaker will have more than just the base version to showcase. There's be the new AMG C63, and now two additional versions. First up is the Edition 1, the designation Mercedes often applies (in some markets anyway) to launch versions of exciting new models. For the C63 Coupe, the Edition 1 features a raft of upgrades, available in either standard (476 horsepower) or S (510 hp) states of tune. It's done up in one of two exterior appearance packages, in matte gray with either yellow trim or black. The Edition 1 also wears special 19-inch wheels in the front and 20-inchers at the back, ceramic brakes, enhanced aerodynamics package, more chrome and gloss-black trim, and an optimized interior with racing buckets. Alongside the Edition 1, Mercedes will also reveal the new DTM racing model in Frankfurt. And following the teaser sketch released the other day, it's giving us our first proper look at the new touring car right here. The new C63 DTM will replace the existing C-Coupe DTM (as it has been formally styled) that has represented the automaker in its local tin-top racing series since 2012 – winning seven races over the past four seasons, but not a championship yet. If looks are anything to go by, the new racing coupe could be up to the task. Special Model to Market Launch: Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe Edition 1: Inspired by Motorsport Affalterbach. Mercedes-AMG is bringing the C 63 Coupe Edition 1 special model to the starting line. The exclusive colour combination in designo Magno Selenite Grey with yellow film coating and black wheels with yellow painted rim flanges reflects the graphic design of the Frankfurt International Motor Show launch version of the Mercedes-AMG C 63 DTM racing coupe which will be used in the DTM next year. The special model is equipped with Performance seats and an aerodynamics package, highlighting its proximity to motorsport. The new Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe and C 63 S Coupe are also available as "Edition 1" special models from market launch. The extraordinary combination of exclusive design and equipment characteristics is inspired by the optical appearance of future Mercedes-AMG racing coupes which will compete in the popular DTM series in 2016. Two exterior designs address different customer wishes.
