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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes gets F1 efficiency, EV charging in Vermont, VW e-Golf to use Bosch
Mon, Jul 14 2014Efficiency equals performance, especially in the case of Formula 1 racing. The Mercedes AMC Petronas team points to several key efficiency technologies it uses to get the most out of its cars. And if their utter dominance so far this season is testament to this relationship, perhaps we should pay attention. Mercedes highlights hybrid tech, turbocharging, aerodynamics, lightweight construction, tribology (both in making internal components and lubricants more slippery) and simulation as crucial to getting around the track faster than anyone else. These just happen to be some of the same things that make the cars we drive on public roads more fuel-efficient. Learn more in the press release below. It's a good read. Brammo, maker of sweet electric motorcycles, is teaming up with TEAM Industries to make drivetrains for electric vehicles. TEAM, which specializes in drivetrain technology, will also become an investor in Brammo as part of the partnership. "The electric vehicle market is a growth market," says TEAM CEO and President David Ricke, "and TEAM and Brammo will be providing a wide range of solutions for OEM manufacturers." Read more over at EV World. Vermont celebrated the installation of a new EV charging station as part of a Green Energy Corridor between Boston and Montreal. When finished, drivers will be able to make the whole trip in an EV with access to charging along the way. For $5, customers can charge their vehicle in about 30 minutes at the Red Hen Baking Company in Middlesex. There are currently only about 700 EVs on the road in Vermont. The state has a goal to get 90 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2050, and getting more EVs on the road is crucial to that mission. Vermont hopes that expanding the charging infrastructure will convince more people to go electric. Read more at Vermont Public Radio's website. For it's new e-Golf, Volkswagen will use Bosch chargers for home installation and ChargePoint stations at its dealerships. Bosch will have various 240-volt options for the home, and will also provide installation. e-Golf customers will also get a free ChargePoint membership, and will have access to the company's network of charging stations worldwide. The 2015 e-Golf goes on sale in the US later this year. Read more in the press release below.

2022 Mercedes-Maybach S 580 First Drive | This thing rules
Tue, Jun 14 2022I can’t help but giggle to myself cruising around in the 2022 Mercedes-Maybach S 580. It is so absurdly good at its intended purpose. Just like a Porsche 911 is to performance, the latest Maybach is to all-out luxury. Much of the MaybachÂ’s goodness is thanks to the excellence of the new S-Class. Technological innovations like rear-wheel steering, E-Active Body Control and the latest MBUX software systems, all found in the new S-Class, establish a very lofty floor for the Maybach version of the car to build upon. And yes, when you pay the Maybach S 580Â’s exorbitant $185,950 base price, you get a whole lot more than just the standard S-Class experience. Appearances are half the battle with mega-luxury yachts like this car. The Rolls-Royces and Bentleys of the world are formidable on the road, and this Mercedes-Maybach puts up a good fight. It all starts with the 7-inch-longer wheelbase, most of which youÂ’ll see represented in the massive “comfort rear doors.” And we do mean “comfort” — they electronically swing open or shut via a switch on the ceiling or via a touch to the pop-out door handles. A massive radiator-style grille replaces the comparatively subdued grille in the standard S-Class. The C-pillar is noticeably more upright in the Maybach, and it features a light-up Maybach logo that reminds everybody about how rich you are, even at night. And lastly, thereÂ’s the utterly breathtaking two-tone paint — pictured in Obsidian Black/Manufaktur Diamond White here — that costs $12,750 extra, but is genuinely worth the coin. Robots first spray the whole body in the lower halfÂ’s color, then the dividing line is hand-painted before both it and the lower part of the car is masked off for the top color to be hand-applied by MercedesÂ’ expert painters. There are lots of steps that were just left out, but know that the process can take up to a week in the custom paint shop before the body is returned to the regular production process. The end result of all these changes is a sedan that is both deeply different in character but also recognizable as the S-Class it is based on. ItÂ’s also just as imposing and rich-looking as a Bentley Flying Spur, so donÂ’t worry about being out-classed in the country club parking lot. Deciding which seat to occupy — the driverÂ’s seat, or the lounge-like rear seat — on the way to said country club might be the most difficult decision any Maybach S 580 owner will have to make on any given day.
Mercedes-AMG Hulks out again with new G63 test
Thu, Jan 15 2015The last time we saw Mercedes-Benz testing its camouflaged, lime-green G63 AMG, it was on the sunny roads of Germany. Perhaps recognizing that this was a tragic waste of its talents, Mercedes has now moved testing of its new brute to the windy, snowy tarmac of Sweden. Besides being a far more suitable environment for its monstrous G-Wagen, Mercedes' arrival in Scandinavia gives us yet another look at its 6x6-inspired updates. Judging by the license plates, this is the exact same vehicle we spotted way back in November, which gave us our original look at the impending arrival of the G's hoisted-up ride height, more aggressively flared fenders and meatier off-road-ready tires. As with our previous report, our spies are still arguing that the next G63 will be fitted with Mercedes' 5.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V8. That means as much as 544 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque will be on tap, and it'll all be dispatched via a seven-speed automatic transmission. The next G-Wagen is still on pace for a debut this year, although we still aren't sure where. Forced to put money on it, we'd bet on a European show, likely March's Genevan extravaganza or September's Frankfurt show.
