Well now you can when you buy this gorgeous, rare, exotic and head turner of a Mercedes CL600. Think a V-12 guzzles gas? Not at all. Vehicle runs as a V-6 until you ask it for the V-12 power (read Car & Driver Comments Below). Options? Simply way too many too list. Keep in mind this was the "Flagship" model for Mercedes - Top of the Line. If I accept your "offsite" offer, I will offset a portion of the saving by helping any out-of-state buyer with vehicle shipping costs - I save money, you save money. The car has Active Body Control (ABC) so it can be lowered and raised (3 settings) with a push of a dashboard button. You can also look on YouTube for the video of Mercedes Master Techs raising the car to go over curbs. The ABC lowers the car as your driving speed increases so that the car stays close and hugs the road beneath it. This car gets looks and attention daily on a daily and frequent basis. As a matter of fact, people often approach me while driving or at a light and offer to buy it many times.So if you dont mind the attention and looks while driving it - this car is for you! The Vehicle is from FL, so no rust on the body at all. Clean inside and out. Women owned and driven. Clean title in hand. Bose Stereo. Suede Headliner. Clean/Clear Title. No accidents. See front bumper "ding" in picture provided. You will need to replace at least one tire on the free set of rims (wrong size). The free rims were not on the car, as depicted in the picture, they were only placed next to the car for the picture. I will include an unpainted CL600 Trunk spoiler - purchased here on eBay ($120), for free. I will also include a full set of Lowering Links - purchased here on eBay ($100) for free. Feel free to come see, feel and drive it if you like. Also, instead of asking a woman a ton of technical/mechanic questions, I would encourage any and all serious buyers to take the vehicle to the Mercedes Dealership for a 50 Point Inspection before purchasing. The inspections are approximately $175-$200 but will give you piece of mind since buying used cars is, inherently, an "AS IS SALE." So, its wise to actually spend the extra money and protect your investment accordingly. Car & Driver Comments: The Mercedes-Benz CL-Class features marvelous technology in
an amazing package of leather, walnut and sleek sheetmetal. You could argue all
day about the perfect car, but for those who want a luxurious yet athletic
coupe, the CL-Class is as close to perfect as you're likely to come. You could argue this is the best car
in the world. It is, after all, the highest offering from one of the great
marques in car building today. And it has everything you could ask for. Quality
and craftsmanship? Yup. Performance? Check. Price and exclusivity? Plenty.
Comfort and convenience? Oh, boy. How about leading-edge technology and sheer
tonnage of gizmos? The CL600 is there.
The other key distinction in this car, as the model designation suggests, is its marvelous V-12. An all-new design, this engine is predictably smooth and torquey but also lighter and more fuel-efficient than M-B's previous V-12. It shuts down the left bank of cylinders under light load and does so in a transparent, fuss-free manner. Rated output has actually slipped some in the new engine, but the downsizing of the S-Class platform (on which the CL coupes are based) more than makes up for the loss of peak thrust. A first-generation CL600 we tested (April '99) used 389 hp to punt its 4960 lb to 60 mph in 6.2 sec. Pretty impressive. But our '01 test car did the same leap in just 5.3 sec, even though its peak power is downrated to 362. The trick? Curb weight of the new coupe has plummeted to a (comparatively) svelte 4312 lb. Packing nearly 400 lb-ft of torque doesn't hurt either.
Motortrend Comments: We're not going to wade into all the
high-tech content packed on this car,
but the sheer bulk of the owner's manual should tell you something: It's
actually two hardbound books, one of 381 pages and another of 240! A bit of technical trickery that does deserve special mention
is Mercedes' Active Body Control (ABC). This is a true active suspension (the
only one in production) that uses electrohydraulic rams in the damper units to
accommodate suspension travel while directly managing body motion. The
remarkable reduction of roll, dive, and squat helps make the CL feel poised,
responsive, and smaller than it is. And even though standing-start bravado is hardly what this car is all about, you have to deliver there too if you want to be the best. And the CL600 does deliver. These Cars Are Increasingly Rare, Especially In This Condition, So Those Who Desire Them - Buy Them. So If You Like It - Buy It Now - Or Make Me A Reasonable Offer Outside Of eBay. I Save & U Save. I Get Calls Everyday Locally To Buy The Car But Will Not Make A Decision Until Later This Week. *** GOOD LUCK BIDDING - HAPPY EASTER - GOD BLESS ***

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
Watch Jay Leno's Garage work on a Porsche 911 and others
Mon, Apr 18 2016Jay Leno doesn't just own a bunch of cars – he restores them. (Or has people who restores them, at any rate.) For this latest video, he's showing us some of the projects he and his team are currently working on. The tour-de-garage starts with a 1953 Cunningham that had been in storage since '68, complete with a copper grille ready for plating and a 331 Hemi V8. Jay says that every one of the cars that Briggs Cunningham made is still on the road – but that's just one of the dozen or so projects Jay and company are working on. There's a suitably brown '71 Porsche 911 T in near-original condition having sat untouched parked underground in Beverly Hills for decades, and a '58 Chrysler Imperial convertible once driven by Clark Gable and Frank Sinatra, and now getting a brake upgrade. There's a Volvo 122 wagon that's been stripped down, media-blasted, and powder-coated, a thousand-horsepower Rolls-Royce, a 1960 Nash Metropolitan, a supercharged Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman, and a 1914 Detroit Electric. And those are just the four-wheeled automobiles. Over in the two-wheeler section there's a pair of Brough Superiors, a BSA, an Indian, and a custom racing sidecar that Jay's mechanic Bernard is working on. In short, Jay Leno's Garage isn't just one where vehicles are kept – it's one where vehicles are brought back to life.

Is Audi getting complacent and suffering from brain drain?
Wed, 27 Nov 2013The argument is made in a Reuters article: Audi is falling behind other luxury brands, such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW, due to a lack of research-and-development spending and "brain drain," or the migration of top executives and R&D chiefs to other parts of the Volkswagen Group. Reuters notes that Audi's current R&D chief is the third in 16 months.
Audi, which contributed to 40 percent of VW Group's $11.6 billion in profit the first nine months of the year, is delivering cars at a record pace: 1.31 million were delivered from January to October 2013 versus BMW's 1.35 million. Yet Audi, Reuters reports, doesn't have a halo car akin to BMW's new electrified i3 and i8 or an answer to Mercedes' plug-in-hybrid S-Class, and the R&D spending at Audi is less than BMW and Mercedes by a fair margin. It's noted in the article, however, that Audi benefits from other R&D spending within VW Group.
Reuters mentions that BMW "trumpets its new 'i' series" and the new Mercedes CLA and GLA ranges are winning "rave reviews" as part of its argument that Audi's recent lack of technological innovation could hurt future sales. Those cars do pack tons of new technology, some of which are firsts for mainstream production cars. But last time we checked, the i3 could be causing BMW's stock to slide, the CLA isn't receiving the rave reviews that Reuters would have you believe and the GLA hasn't been reviewed yet.
