If you have always wanted THE super coupe from the Gordon Gekko extravagant 1980's this is your chance! Up for auction is a super clean 1986 5.6 liter 238 horsepower 287 lbs. of torque fire breathing land rocket. This is the forgotten coupe that was the car that all others aspired to be during the Big Hair Big Metal Bands heyday! 1986 is a pivotal year in the history of the W126/C126 chassis because it is the first year of the 5.6 motor that was a huge horsepower increase over the 5.0 of 1984/1985. This motor was brought over to the USA to deal with the challenges being brought forth by the likes of BMW Lexus and Jaguar. This 560 sec has ice cold AC all of the windows go up an down for the "full coupe" hardtop convertible experience. The sunroof tilts perfectly but sometimes the sunroof does not slide back without a little help. The original floor mats are in nice shape and the steering wheel has a cover on it. All of the problems areas on the SEC are functioning in this car-- The seat belt "butler" is working. The dashboard is beautiful with no cracks and the rear self-leveling suspension is trouble-free. The steering wheel forward and back option is working. The seats are in good shape but have covers on them for protection. The fog-lights are fine as are the headlight wipers that come with the car. The wood all around the car is in super shape and all of the window switches work fine. The adjustable passenger mirror switch works great but sometimes the clip gets a little loose in its position. The rear of the interior has cloth covers on it to protect it from the rear sun glare. The paint is in stellar shape but appears to have been redone at some point in its life. The headliner is in nice shape but seems a little weak near the rear glass. A picture is included. The rear glass is not leaking nor is it getting the famous white delamination. The HVAC system is great but sometimes the off button needs to be pushed a little harder to keep it in its position and on some settings the blower sends 20% of the air to the defroster vents. I am not sure if this is normal or if it is a vacuum leak. These cars are notorious for the complicated HVAC system. The original HVAC tutorial card is included. The car has upgraded speakers all around and a Pioneer CD player but the original Becker is included for the purists out there. The car has brand new tires as well as a set of new front brake pads and just had the transmission and rear differential serviced. The car even has the original wheels that it came with and has a great spare in the trunk and even still has the Mercedes-Benz First Aid Kit. The motor on this car is in top shape and she has a great bill of health. She does not burn any oil and there is no noise coming from the chains or guides. She idles a little over 600 @ idle with the air off and around 800 with the AC on. I just completed a 500 mile round trip in the car and she was a champ. The brakes and transmission service were just done after the trip so she is ready to enjoy for many more miles. This car has the ultra rare BIRD brand armrest that opens up and can store things or add a cup holder. This may seem like no big deal but they are a $500 piece and still go for a lot of money used. This car has all of the original manuals from 1986 and even has the letter stating how long it would take to get a new key from Germany should you need it. as well as the original instructional cassettes on the becker radio and SRS system. The reserve on this car is super low for how clean it is and this car is well above the other "rats" that are being shown on the internet. She is not a museum piece but a solid driver that would make any person proud to own her. They truly do not make the German Sherman Tanks like this anymore. The hand built Mercedes coupes are a thing of beauty. The weight of the door as it closes and makes the "bank vault thud" should be an experience that all should enjoy. This truly is a land rocket that was designed to drive in comfort from Key West to Washington State. I have great feedback and can send many more pictures. I have been as honest about my knowledge of all defects but things will go wrong on a car new or old. AC may stop working or transmissions may get sluggish etc over time but that will happen with cars. If you have any questions please ask! As with any car that is nearly 30 years old with over 150k miles things may go wrong with the car that I was not aware of or were not a problem when I created this ad. Please use common sense when bidding on an older car. I have to repeat what I wrote above because I thought this car had "sold" already but the buyer had already purchased a different vehicle in their home state and did not realize they won this SEC.

Here's today's round of auto plant closures in response to coronavirus
Fri, Mar 20 2020More automakers have shuttered factories, as businesses everywhere work to slow the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus — and as the pandemic slows sales and disrupts parts supply chains. On Friday, the following closures were announced: • Volvo will close its factories in Sweden and the United States from March 26 to April 14. Volvo's U.S. facility, in Charleston, South Carolina, makes the S60 sedan. Its assembly plant in Torslanda, Sweden, turns out the XC90, SC60, and V90. Other Swedish facilities make engines and component parts. A Volvo factory in Ghent, Belgium, that builds the XC40 and V60 closed earlier this week and is expected to remain offline until April 6. Volvo's four factories in China have been reopened after a shutdown earlier this year. • Jaguar Land Rover announced that it will suspend production at its assembly plants in the UK over the coming week. The shutdown is expected to last until April 20. Elsewhere, production continues at the company's factories in India and Brazil, and JLR's joint-venture plant in China reopened at the end of February. • Bentley is closing its factory in Crewe, England, for four weeks, effective today. • Bugatti has put its atelier in Molsheim, France, on hiatus. No date was given for when assembly of its supercars might resume. • Mercedes-Benz on Monday will shut down its SUV factory in Alabama and its van assembly plant in South Carolina. Both will remain closed for a minimum of two weeks. Tesla yesterday revealed that it will suspend operations at its Fremont, California, vehicle assembly plant next week, on order from local officials there. Yesterday's factory closure announcements also included the U.S. assembly plants for Toyota (until April 6), Volkswagen (through March 29), Subaru (through March 29), and Hyundai (no time period specified). They join GM, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Nissan, and Harley-Davidson, which earlier this week announced the suspension of production at their facilities.

10 most memorable cars and SUVs of 2019
Tue, Dec 24 2019It's no surprise that a car reviewer will drive a large number of cars over the course of a year. Indeed, when the clock strikes midnight on Dec 31, I will have driven 75 new cars, trucks and SUV this year (and one old Peugeot) over the course of weekly evaluation loans and first drive events. That sure seems like a lot. Some definitely got more attention than others, and some came and went without leaving much of an impression – I completely forgot I drove a Kia Forte. Yet in the spirit of this day, I thought I'd pick the 10 that I would love to see under the Christmas tree tomorrow morning. You know, just in case you were looking to get me something. I'll also throw in a couple disappointments that were memorable for the wrong reasons. They'd get sent back to the store on Boxing Day. Lexus LC 500 Pictured below and resplendent in its Flare Yellow metallic paint, the car that would reach highest on my list is the divine Lexus LC 500. As a devout lover of GT cars, the LC ticks all the boxes. Muscular and characterful engine? V8, check. Beautifully made and memorable interior? It's gorgeous, to hell with Remote Touch. Check. Comfortable and reasonably practical? Superb seats and, uh, yeah. Makes me want to stand there and stare at it? You bet. Though I long figured my heart would say LC but my head "Porsche 911," after this go-around, that's no longer the case. LC, pretty please. 2020-lexus-lc500-f34-2 View 19 Photos Polestar 1 I actually feel lucky that I got to drive the Polestar 1. Only 150 will be produced each year, and it's a far more special thing than it would initially appear. And that's despite initially appearing to be a beautiful, classic two-door GT car with a roof so rakish it's only possible because it's made of carbon fiber. That itÂ’s a massively powerful plug-in hybrid with more all-electric range than any other PHEV is a thick dollop of whipped cream on a slice of Toscakaka. You know, Swedish dessert, Swedish car. Fine, I'll stick to Ikea references. Polestar1_Launch_SanFrancisco-0014 View 44 Photos Volvo V60 Cross Country Speaking of Sweden, did I drive this car off the road there? Sure did! And despite this, the V60 Cross Country scratches that certain wagon itch and looks sensational to boot. I wish it were available with the T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain, but it's best not to get greedy at Christmas.
