Amg C43 98- 302bhp, V8 Perfect Car on 2040-cars
Bozeman, Montana, United States
In late 1997, as a 1998 model, the world was graced by the AMG C43 and its 302bhp 4.3-liter M113-E43 V8. Available in both saloon and estate configurations, the C43 was the first AMG vehicle built completely in-house and the first C-class to receive a V8. 4,200 were produced for the global market between 98-2000, 1,425 of which were for U.S. consumption. With a 0-60 sprint of 5.8 seconds and a top speed of 155mph.
I love my car, bought it at almost double the price and would keep this classic. It is great and the motor is in excellent conditions. It is an AMG, it gallops wild in summers (not that I ever got a ticket) and is incredibly tough in winter. Even if it is rear wheel drive one of the things I am most proud of is that it was able to survive four winters with me and it never failed to turn on in -45F weather. I would have never survived without the front heated seats, and the heater. I have the blizzak tires that go with it that are still in great shape and I have excellent tiers for the summer also, which I will include (the continental, up front and michelin, in the rear). The reason this car is not in excellent shape is that when I lived in California they broke into the car and stole the DVD player. They destroyed that specific part of the dash. I was able to get the dash but never had time to get the DVD and put it in (you can't put in the dash without the radio). I will include the wood dash with it. Besides that this charm has includes luxury appointments like automatic climate control, wood-grain dash, Bose stereo, power glass sunroof, the electronic Mercedes Mercedes Rest system, new smart key, blue LED lights, windshield wiper activated with sensor, and the split mirror side view mirrors for maximum loss of blind spots. I would love to give this car to someone who is willing to take great care of it and that loves these classics as much as I. My brother (that as a job fixes luxury cars) and I were always fixing little things to the car and tried to take as much care of it as possible. It have recently changed many things during a two year span the key, all brake pads and disks, windshield wiper motor and blade, windshield glass, side door wood grain, a side window (when they broke in), oil filters twice, emergency light sensor, spark plugs, water pump.

The hottest modern sports cars rendered as rally racers
Thu, Jan 14 2016The modern-day World Rally Championship a monumental amount of fun to watch – I should know, as I recently was lucky enough to head to the UK to watch WRC Wales Rally GB – but even the most monstrous of the current WRC cars are based on fairly pedestrian European hatchbacks. Back in the heyday of rally, the Group B era in the 1980s, much hotter cars were the basis of even more incredible competition machines, for the most part. Take the exotic Ford RS200, or the Lancia Delta S4 with its twin-charged engine. And the hatchback-based Group B cars were bonkers, too. So what would some of our favorite modern cars look like if Group B had never ended? A British site named CarWow hired an artist to reimagine everything from the Rolls-Royce Wraith to the Porsche 911 as a retro-inspired rally car, and they were kind enough to let us share the results in the gallery above. The gallery features an Alfa Romeo Giulia in Martini livery, an Audi TT in classic Ur-Quattro colors, a Fiat 500 Abarth sporting massive flares and a hood blister full of auxiliary lights, a new Ford Mustang in RS200 livery, a Lancia Delta in Alitalia colors, a Porsche 911 in Rothmans livery, a Renault-Alpine in classic blue, a Rolls-Royce Wraith tribute to the Jules cologne Corniche Coupe, and a relatively modern-looking VW Touran. So far, the favorite around the office is the incredible Mercedes-Benz S-Class that is an homage to the wonderful 300 SEL 6.8 AMG "Red Pig" that essentially put AMG on the map. Check out the gallery above and see which one you like the best. Related Video:
Mercedes-Benz C350 Plug-In Hybrid promises 20 miles EV range, 5.9 seconds to 60
Mon, Jan 12 2015Mercedes-Benz has introduced its first hybrid C-Class to the US market with the new C350 Plug-In Hybrid. Despite its fuel-saving purpose, though, this C is not short on firepower. MB paired a 208-horsepower, 258-pound-foot, turbocharged four-cylinder with a 80-hp, 251-lb-ft electric motor for a potent overall output of 275 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque. That translates a 0-60 time of just 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 130 miles per hour. For those that aren't interested in such frivolous numbers, though, the C-Class can still impress in more environmentally friendly ways. It can cover 20 miles to a charge and will hit speeds of up to 80 miles per hour (although not likely at the same time). Naturally, fuel economy figures aren't available at this early stage. Beyond those powertrain changes, the C350 Plug-In is still the same relaxed, luxurious baby S-Class, with a class-leading interior that should really benefit from the quiet ride provided by an electric powertrain. Take a look at our full gallery of live images of the new C-Class hybrid, straight from the Detroit's Cobo Hall.
