Private Seller
One owner
Always Garaged
Drives excellent
Up for sale is our exceptionally nice 2004 Mercedes Benz C230. This is a one owner car that has spent its entire life in Florida and has always been garaged. No accidents. No one has ever smoked in it and no pets have ever been inside. That said, it is still a used car, so be realistic and expect to find a few details here and there if you look carefully – However I think one would be hard pressed to find a car with this age in better condition.
This car was used for commuting until 2009 when it was replaced by a new car. It became our spare car being driven occasionally. We would like to see it go to someone who will enjoy it as much as we did. I am very meticulous about my cars’ maintenance and don’t cut any corners and have only used original Mercedes parts on almost all the repairs. Before the original warranty expired, I purchased an extended warranty to ensure the car was serviced with original parts. I have been doing the oil changes myself every 5,000 miles with Mobil 1. Everything on the car, mechanical and electrical, works as it should.
For those who are not familiar with the C230, Mercedes made several engineering improvements including a lower ride height, upgraded brakes and a short-throw shifter. The car was made in Germany (not in Brazil like other C230’s). The main upgrades are: full ash leather, sunroof, premium sound, power driver’s seat and my favorite: factory 17” wheels that still look spectacular. I replaced halogen for Xenon light which make a huge difference. I also just replaced the A/C compressor (comes with a 12 month warranty) to ensure full and cold air.
In interest of full disclosure here are the things that are not great:
The plastic console on the front is slightly cracked due to the sun. If you look for it you can find the cracks, but it is not noticeable otherwise. You can find a replacement for $20 online. The automatic locks sometimes need to be pressed twice to lock from the remote. This was common in the C230 line and certainly nothing to be concerned about. The driver's seat shows some normal wear. The passenger seat has little wear and the backseat has minimal wear. Vehicle includes owner’s manual & (4) key/remote key (2 new edition + 2 original).
I have made an effort to represent the car in the most honest and comprehensive way and as you can see, I would have no hesitations in using this car as a daily driver again and you will have peace of mind knowing that the previous owner took care of the car quite well. If you are looking for an elegant and distinct car that has been very well taken care of and has the safety and performance of a Mercedes Benz, then this may be the car for you.
The car is located in Hollywood, FL – I can arrange for in person inspections, send me a text to 786-309-seven.seven.two.seven. Will also be happy to answer any questions you may have.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic
Mon, Oct 24 2016Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class spied once again
Fri, 08 Feb 2013As evidenced by how little camouflage the next-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class has been caught wearing lately, it can't be too much longer until the car will get its official debut. In our newest shots of the yacht-sized luxo sedan, the cladding still covers up the headlights, front fascia and most of the rear end, but we finally have an almost undisguised look at the rest of the car's lines.
Considering previous spy shots had more camo that better (or fully) concealed the S-Class' body, some of the more obvious things we see in these images include the prominent grille, the CLS-Class-inspired bodyside creases, the pointed trunk opening and, most interestingly, a lack of fancy exhaust outlets. Unlike other S-Class prototypes we've seen, this car does not have integrated outlets, but it does have two pipes on the left side of the car. All current S-Class models in the US and Europe feature a dual exhaust layout on each side of the car, so while some of our questions about the car get answered, it would appear that more are just arising.
