2006 Mercedes Benz Clk 500 Amg * Sport / Clean / Ez Fix / 36k Original Miles * on 2040-cars
Valley Stream, New York, United States
Relisted for the 4th time now due to winning bidders who could not afford to pay for the car. *The three previous auction winners were all out out-of-state and never saw the car in person. They simply realized they were not financially able to pay for the car and/or transporting the car to their locations. *This car does need cosmetic TLC, and I have been completely honest about every last detail. Having said that, this car runs&drives AMAZING. *It drives like you would expect an '06 Mercedes Benz with 36,xxx miles to drive. *PLEASE only bid if you are financially willing and able to purchase the car. *PLEASE DO NOT WASTE MY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!! 2006 Mercedes Benz CLK 500 ///AMG sport -36,000 original miles-VIN: WDBTJ75hH86F190250 -Black exterior on light grey interior -Fully loaded -Mechanically excellent -Starts, runs, and drives perfect -Firm & tight sporty handling -Smooth & comfortable ride -BRAND NEW tires all around (less than 50 miles on the new tires) *I originally purchased this car for my wife about two years ago. The car drove amazing and had a clean&clear title, however it did need some minor cosmetic TLC. For example, the headliner had some cuts in it and the front fog lights were disconnected. The trunk was also missing the spare tire, jack, and tools. These were all minuscule things that did not really bother me. I thoroughly checked and tested the car, it drove like a dream with no mechanical faults at all. *A few weeks after buying the car I was fully stopped at a red light when suddenly a car hit me from the rear. It was a young lady who was 'texting' and not paying attention to the road. Luckily she was not going too fast so the damage was not too severe, however it was a collision nonetheless and both cars were damaged. *Both insurance companies agreed and concluded that the collision was 100% her fault and she took full responsibility. Her insurance company 'totaled' my vehicle. However, I bought my vehicle back from the insurance company with the intentions of repairing the car, because the damage was purely cosmetic and I knew how great the car is. *Unfortunately between the litigations between both insurance companies and the amount of time that elapsed before I actually received my check from the insurance company to repair the car, I lost interest in the car and have since purchased a new sport coupe. My wife has also changed her mind about driving a two door and is looking towards a four door sedan. The damage is purely cosmetic with no frame or structural damage whatsoever: -The car is straight and true. The trunk floor is untouched, the exhaust system is untouched, the suspension is untouched, the trunk lid is untouched, and the taillights are untouched. -The car was NOT affected mechanically whatsoever. The car still runs & drives 100% as it did before the collision. -I welcome any serious interested parties to check the car out, have it inspected by a professional, etc. The extent of the damage: -The ///AMG rear bumper cover has some minor cracking from the impact on the dip of the top horizontal section between the taillights (see photos). Luckily, it can easily be repaired by any professional shop. It does NOT need to be replaced, which saves a lot of money as a new OEM AMG bumper cover is very expensive (although their are aftermarket options). -Both rear quarter panels were also dented slightly from the impact and will need to be repaired. -I purchased the car from with tears on its interior headliner. -Also the front fog lights need some attention. At the moment they are not connected. -All four wheels (rims) are all straight and true, but could use some cosmetic attention. A simple respray would make them look brand-new. *Please feel free to message me via eBay with any questions or concerns. SERIOUS INQUIRES ONLY! *I welcome and encourage any interested parties to come see this beauty in person to assess the extent of the damage for yourself. You are more than welcome to bring along your mechanic, auto body specialist, etc. *The 'Blue Book' value on this year/make/model/miles in fair condition is still in the very high teens, so I believe my price is more than fair. This vehicle is sold as-is where-is with a NYS Salvage Certificate ONLY BID IF YOU CAN AFFORD THE CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

When Android Automotive goes in the dash, Google wins — and automakers lose data
Tue, May 22 2018You've gotta hand it to Google for the way the Silicon Valley tech giant has made indelible inroads into the car on multiple fronts. The most obvious is with its pioneering self-driving car technology that's caused car companies to get their act together on autonomous vehicles — and also collaborate with Google. Google has more directly extended its influence and data-mining capabilities into the car with its Android Auto smartphone-projection platform that most major automakers have adopted along with Apple's CarPlay. And now it's preparing to dig even deeper into dashboards by deploying its open-source operating system, Android Automotive, beginning with Audi and Volvo. Volvo recently announced that its next-generation Sensus infotainment system will run Android Automotive as an OS and include Google's Play Store for cloud-based content, Maps for navigation and Google Assistant for voice recognition, which can even command a car's climate control. By embedding Google in the dash, Volvo says owners will get an improved connected experience. "Bringing Google services into Volvo cars will accelerate innovation in connectivity and boost our development in applications and connected services," Volvo senior vice president of R&D Henrik Green said in a statement. "Soon, Volvo drivers will have direct access to thousands of in-car apps that make daily life easier and the connected in-car experience more enjoyable." Having Android Automotive onboard could benefit drivers — and provide a big win for Google, since it opens a deep and lucrative new data-mining vein for the company. But it's a wave of a white flag for car companies when it comes to delivering their own cloud-based content and services. It also represents a massive data giveaway and, for Audi, a reversal of earlier reservations about letting Google get too much access to car data. Not long after Android Auto and Apple CarPlay were introduced in 2014 and most automakers eagerly embraced the technologies, several German automakers second-guessed their decision when they realized what was at stake: data. At a conference in Berlin in 2015, Audi CEO Rupert Stadler said car owners "want to be in control of their data, and not subject to monitoring." A few months earlier, Stadler stated that "the data that we collect is our data and not Google's.
2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic [w/video]
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Maybe you saw our recent blog snippet on a bunch of US journos getting pulled over in the middle of nowhere in Catalunya, Spain for driving a bunch of new 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG models. By all accounts, they weren't speeding - which makes me softly guffaw. I was there in that group, yet I had taken the more direct route into the mountains from Barcelona so that I could... well, so that I could go faster. No one hassled me and I had the Autovia all to myself. And it was the goodniks - the team players - who got nabbed because Spain had decided to suddenly enforce the never enforced "must carry an international driver's license" clause of the highway code.
The departing E63 AMG with 518 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque from its M157 5.5-liter biturbo V8 hasn't exactly been poorly received. It isn't as crisp as, nor as pleasantly evil as its C63 AMG kid brother, but we generally accept that the heavier and larger car will always feel, well, heavier and larger.
As part of the 2014 E-Class mid-cycle redesign, Affalterbach decided to give its E63 AMG more power and torque for the occasion. The base car now gives off 550 hp and 531 lb-ft, while the hotter S version I tested (formerly the AMG Performance Pack) produces 577 hp and 590 lb-ft. The other big novelty is that E63 sedans will be available with both rear- and all-wheel drive, while all US-spec E63 wagons will be 4Matic equipped.
Online Find of the Day: Lexus-engined Mercedes pickup is a vintage hybrid
Tue, 16 Sep 2014You have to love someone who gets incredibly committed to a very weird idea. What you see for sale here is a right-hand drive 1971 Mercedes-Benz 220D in South Africa, but this old Mercedes is now converted into a pickup, complete with bed cover, and there's big secret under the hood, too.
The pickup conversion appears well done based on seller Sedgefield Classic Cars' photos. Even the tonneau cover fits well. You could almost believe that this Mercedes lived its life as a Chevrolet El Camino-like pickup from the very beginning.
However, the rear-quarters conversion might not be the weirdest thing about this Mercedes. The original diesel is gone from the engine bay in favor of a Lexus V8. It seems really odd to pop the hood and find a Japanese mill in this German car, but the photos make it look like a fairly well performed swap. So, bravo to the crazy thinking. According to the seller speaking to Autoblog by email, "as far as we can establish, this was done a few years ago, with all Lexus components."
