Here is your chance to own one of Mercedes-Benz’s best and most expensive production cars at an impossibly low starting bid and no reserve. This is the very best car I've ever owned; I would drive it coast to coast and back again - now - today. Well, then ... why am I selling it? I am 78 years old on a fixed income. I have too many vehicles. Medical bills are eating me alive. Need I say more? In 2008 I drove a 1986 Porsche 911 from Maine to Georgia to attend a high school reunion. Just before I departed from Georgia I blew an air box. A week later and a thousand dollars poorer it looked like I was going to be throwing hundred dollar bills at the car for at least another week. It was then that I decided to swap even the Porsche for the Mercedes 560 SEC. By the time I got back to Maine I was in love with the Mercedes. My total virtual investment in the SEC 560 at that time was $11,000.00. The car has been a dependable runner and I have taken it on many long distance trips. This vehicle has a strong engine that uses no oil. The odometer ceased to work on August 5, 2011 at 134,622 miles. I would rate the condition of this car as "good." It has dependably taken me on many trips from Maine to Georgia. Two years ago I towed a utility trailer from Maine to Western Vermont and returned with a sidecar motorcycle. The vehicle runs and drives great. It has been well maintained and has had all necessary work done to obtain a yearly Maine inspection sticker, which expires on 1 January 2014. There is a half-dollar size circle of bare aluminum on the hood and trunk lid of the car. The spots look like hail damage but there is no denting. There is a minor rust spot at the rear of the left side wheel arches and some chrome flaking on the front bumper. The sun roof needs some parts to be installed, which could possibly be in the trunk. I have seldom owned a vehicle without a trailer hitch. I purchased and installed the only receiver hitch available for this model car. I don’t remember the price but it was a doozie. Recently the ABS light on the dashboard occasionally comes on. My mechanic says that a front sensor needs to be adjusted or replaced; aside from this the brakes work perfectly. Last month a latch spring in the left side door broke. Consequently, the latch has to be reset (a simple operation) if the door is opened from the outside. The gray leather interior is "fair." The driver’s seat shows wear from 27 years of regular use. The upholstery under the rear window needs to be re-sewn or replaced. The rear window has some haze along the sides. There may or may not be some additional minor items that could be fixed but do not affect the operation of the vehicle. The car is sold "AS-IS." I am a private seller. I have done my best to describe this item carefully and accurately, The pictures depict this item exactly as it is. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. Thanks for looking!

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.

10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon
Thu, Sep 22 2022If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved — dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of “around $30,000.” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.
