C63 Amg Development Package & Limited Slip - Huge $79k Msrp! on 2040-cars
Reisterstown, Maryland, United States
This car is loaded with just about every option available including Nav, Pass Assist, Parking Assist, etc... The biggies, the ones that matter the most is the P31 Development Package and the 471 Limited Slip. The Development Package raises stock horsepower from 451 to 481 and the Limited Slip allows you to get all that horsepower to the pavement. Hopefully you've already done your research on the C63 and you'll know that when optioned right, the car is an absolute rocket ship. A couple of things to consider when comparing 2013 C63 to older models. The 2013 has an upgraded dash and console, chin spoiler and more importantly, the MCT transmission which is far superior to the previous 7G-Tronic. The MCT has no torque converter, which was a major power eater for the 7G-Tronic... Therefore, you end up with even more power to the wheels. Also, don't get lured into a low MSRP C63 without the Development Package or Limited Slip... You'll be kicking yourself once you realize what your missing when it comes to the car's performance. As far as mods go, they were carefully selected with the goal of making the car the way AMG should have in the first place. First, I installed H&R Lowering Springs which dropped the car 1 inch. I wanted the best matte black rims on the market and was lead to the 19" Forgestar CF10. Then came the home work, as I also wanted the perfect offset; one that would give the most aggressive stance without and tire rub and I found it. The wheels are fitted with Michelin Pilot Super Sports, the best tire available for the car. Wheel dimensions are 19x8.5 front and 19x10 rear. Front tires are 245mm and rears are 275mm!!! The added traction from the Pilot Super Sports and wider footprint is astounding, not to mention the beefier look of the 275mm vs. the 255mm stock running gear. This is the way the car should have come from the factory. Anyway, I finished it off by wrapping the interior trim panels in 3M Carbon Fiber vinyl wrap which is 100% removable if you are a wood trim kind of guy. FYI: Although AutoCheck shows this as a 1 owner car, I am in fact the 2nd owner. Stock wheels and tires are also included with the "buy it now" price. Please understand that if you were to replicate these mods yourself, you would be out of pocket $4000!!! So if they are not for you, make your offer accordingly. I will happily put the stock wheels & tires back on the car and sell the Forgestars/ Michelins elsewhere. If you are looking for a car that is best described as a 911 twin turbo with 4 doors, look no further. I am a true car enthusiast who has bought & sold many highline cars through eBay and have always maintained 100% positive feedback. There will be no disappointment here! |

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
Smart Cross Connect app changes how ForTwos get used [UPDATE]
Tue, Oct 27 2015UPDATE: The story's been updated with a response from a Smart representative. There are parking spaces, and then there are Fortwo parking spaces. Smart, which is owned by Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler, is looking for a way for its customers to take advantage of the difference. Think of it as a big thing for really small cars. Smart is working on an app for the redesigned Fortwo called Cross Connect that will be available as soon as next month, says Automotive News, citing Smart chief Annette Winkler. The idea is to connect owners of the diminutive two-seat vehicles to, for example, let them tell each other when there's a parking space that's too small for just about any other vehicle but big enough for a Smart. If you think that's a small thing, think again. The Fortwo is 8 feet, 10 inches long. That's almost six feet shorter than a Toyota Prius, which itself isn't exactly a stretch limo. In fact, the length of a Smart Fortwo is just 10 inches longer than the width of a Ford F-150, in case anyone was having misgivings about parking perpendicular in a parallel spot. Parking has become more relevant, and tougher, as more people move to urban centers. For instance, BMW said earlier this month that it would discontinue its DriveNow car-sharing operations in San Francisco because of the challenge of parking vehicles on that city's streets. Other possible amenities with the Cross Connect app including the enabling of personal car sharing as well as information on car washes that offer discounted rates for Smart Fortwo. Yes, there are some out there, apparently, and we salute them. Michael Minielly, a spokesman for Mercedes-Benz, confirmed to Autoblog that the Cross Connect features would be available in November.

Porsche tops JD Power APEAL study for 12th time
Wed, Jul 27 2016JD Power's 2016 Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) study hasn't changed much this time around with Porsche coming in at No.1 for the 12th consecutive year, while BMW was close behind in second. Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz tied for third with Land Rover, Lexus, and Lincoln tied for No.5. The APEAL Study, according to JD Power, measures owners' level of excitement and emotional attachment across 77 parameters. Brands and cars are rated on a 1,000-point scale. The study found that new cars with modern safety features including low speed collision avoidance and blind spot monitoring have higher APEAL scores than vehicles without the features. The overall industry score increased from 798 to 801, which JD Power claims was helped by the launch of a variety of new vehicles. This year, 22 out of 30 new or redesigned cars received a higher score than the vehicle's respective segment average. Porsche is once again at the top of the list as the automaker's score increased by three points to 877. BMW outscored Jaguar to take second place with a score of 859, while the British automaker dropped three points from last year with 852 points. Volkswagen overtook Mini to become the top-ranked non-premium brand with 809 points, while the latter automaker trailed behind by one point. At the end of the scale, Smart came in at the very bottom for the second year in a row with a score of 745 points, which represents an increase of 62 points over last year. Fiat's score increased by six points to 755, but still confined the automaker to second-to-worst place for a consecutive year. Mitsubishi's score increased to 770, up from 755, to become the fourth-worst brand, while Jeep fell to third-worst with a decrease in seven points to 756. General Motors received six segment-level awards, followed by Hyundai with five, and BMW and VW earning four apiece. Surprise segment victories include the Chevrolet Camaro, which outscored the Dodge Challenger, and the Lexus RC which ranked above the BMW 4 and 3 Series.
