Mercedes Benz 500se (grey-market) Imported on 2040-cars
This is an extremely rare car. Imported from Germany in the late 80s. There are only a handful of these in the united states.
I work for an airline and can provide free plane tickets if you wish to come get the car from me in Nashville but don't have a means to transport it back. Grey Market - Mercedes Benz 1986 500SE I have all the paperwork for the car to show it is 100% legal Has never been in an accident Bought this car in December from a friend in New hampshire. Wanted to take on the project, but have to many already. So, it is time to sell it. Drove the car from New Hampshire to Nashville, TN with no issues. 200,XXX miles (will update soon with correct milage). I hate to have to sell it but I am moving in the next few weeks and this is the only way I'm going to be able to afford the move. Cons: Front seats need to be reupholstered A/C Does not work Blower motor isn't hooked up. Was disconnected when I bought the car. Never investigated why. Air still blows through defrost vents Odometer stopped working just a few weeks ago. Haven't driven the car since then. I believe it's off by about 100 miles. Needs new brake pads One small bit of surface rust under the gas cap. (shown in pictures) Windshield has a crack from driver side to passenger side and will need to be replaced. Headlight wipers don't work Dome lights don't work Pros: Runs great EURO BUMPERS EURO HEADLIGHTS (both of which, together, are close to the asking price alone) Shifts perfect with no hiccups Electric seats / seat heaters work great Tires have plenty of life left I Have a set of H&R lowering springs I will throw in for free. For some reason (I'm assuming because of the import eBay wouldn't let accept the vin as an actual vin). I have set the year as 1980, as you aren't required to have a vin on any 1980 or older vehicle, to avoid this issue so it would allow me to post. This car is a 1986. Reserve is set at $2,000. However I may decide to sell for less if the auction closes and it hasn't reached my asking price. |

Mercedes FWD platform to last until 2018, convertible and two-seater future uncertain
Mon, 22 Jul 2013Mercedes-Benz seems to be expecting a lot of success from its front-wheel-drive CLA-Class. Automotive News is reporting that the sub-C-Class sedan could grow when its second generation arrives in 2018.
The current FWD platform for MB underpins the CLA, the B-Class, the GLA-Class, and the A-Class. The B-Class will arrive in North America as an EV for spring of 2014, while the production GLA crossover will arrive three to four months after that. The five-door A-Class won't be crossing The Pond. Sad faces all around.
According to AN, another model will be based on the front-drive architecture, but it won't be coming to the US market. Set to arrive next year, rumors are that it'll be a wagon version of the CLA, sort of like the ill-named five-door CLS Shooting Brake that is also a Europe-only item.
Genesis G70 vs sport sedan rivals: How it compares on paper
Fri, Sep 15 2017We got our first look at the Genesis G70 sport sedan today. We think it looks good, with enough ties to its fellow Genesises (Geneses?) to further establish the brand and just enough distinction to help it stand out from the crowd. But ah yes, the crowd. Although Genesis didn't release the G70's full spec sheet, it revealed just enough for us to start sizing it up to its future competition. There are certainly others with which to compare (Lexus IS, Cadillac ATS, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Jaguar XE just to name a few), but we decided to take a look at the best sellers and most competitive luxury sport sedans. (And hey, if you like this, we can always do a follow up) So, here we have the Genesis G70 vs BMW 3 Series vs Audi A4 / S4 vs Mercedes-Benz C-Class vs Infiniti Q50. Nothing like a good chart to dig your teeth into on a Friday. Note that we only compared those models that line up with the G70. So, we left out the BMW 320i and Audi A4 Ultra entry level models as well as the Q50 3.0t mid-grade model that's considerably cheaper than the German performance upgrade models we listed. All 0-60 figures are rough estimates based on several sources, models/drivetrains and OEM figures.

The Mansory Speranza proves that money can buy taste and good sense...
Tue, 05 Mar 2013...Just kidding.
No one in their right mind has ever accused German tuners Mansory of being subtle. So, when our Geneva team wandered across the Mansory Speranza - A Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen that has been denuded of its roof and spackled inside with quilted leather and red carbon fiber - they didn't ask a lot of existential questions. Why does the Speranza exist? Because Germans are weird sometimes, that's why.
Forget for a moment that you'll have to pay Mansory hundreds of thousands of euros (we're guessing, no pricing information has been revealed) for the privilege of converting your G-Class into something that looks like a Suzuki Samurai, and prepare to be impressed by the details. The tuning house has increased the output of the Mercedes V8 to a healthy 700 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque. The wheels are 24-inches, and wear almost unbelievable 305-section ultra-high performance Vresdestein tires. Carbon fiber can be found nearly everywhere one looks, including making up the housing for the spare tire. Oh, and there are leather pillows for the backseats... no word on whether they're standard or optional, but we're looking in to it.
