I am selling a 2007 CLK 550 convertible. This is black with all black leather interior. Currently has a little over 86k miles.
The good:
I am a picky mechanic and take care of all my cars to the T. Maintenance is always done and whenever I get so much as a door ding, I have it removed. Upon buying the car, I became frustrated with early rear tire wear and discovered this is a common problem with this model. I installed an aftermarket camber kit that allows you to adjust rear camber to zero spec, and since doing so the car uses tires normally. That was my main criticism of the car and now its a dream to drive.
Additionally, I removed the center resonator and 2nd cats (not cats really but small glass packs) in the exhaust. Its just slightly louder and will put them in a box in the trunk if you want to reinstall them. However, since doing so I've picked up some extra horsepower and better gas mileage. I now get 22.5 mpg on the highway which is amazing for a car with close to 400hp.
The car has every added feature including the navigation system, upgraded Harmon Kardon sound system and AMG sport package. The AMG package gives you the chrome wheels seen in the pics as well as a sport exhaust and peddles.
Every feature on the car works exactly as it should including top, AC, stereo, NAV, lights, heater, etc. The car uses a keyless entry system and detects if the key is in your pocket, allows you to automatically unlock the car and start it without needing to put the key in anything. The car automatically turns the headlights on and off as well as senses when it rains and automatically turns the wipers on and off. Then xenon headlights turn and follow the road as you drive through curves.
There are no door dings on the car or noticeable scratches.
In addition to normal maintenance on schedule, I have just had the transmission serviced, with new Mercedes fluid and filter installed.
Everything about the car drives intuitively and may be the safest car I've ever driven. The brakes stop quickly and the car accelerates and presses you back into the seat. It is a blast to drive!
The bad:
There are some tiny chips on the front of the hood that are very small and will not show up on film. The drivers side fog light has a rock chip in the glass but works fine. The rims will have some small scuffs on them from rubbing on a curb but are small and hard to notice just a few feet a way. The black canvass top has some 3-4in oval stains on it that are noticeable once you know where they are but most people never notice them. In fact if the top is damp, they cant be seen. There are some hairline cracks in the leather driver's seat but will not show up on film.
NADA website shows clean retail just under $24,999 with this mileage and all the added features. The car was almost 70k new.
Auction is for local pick up so if you want to ship it, you will make the shipping arraignments. The car has clean title and can be fedex'd as soon as funds are wired.

Mercedes to roll out C63 AMG late in 2014 with 4.0L V8
Mon, 30 Dec 2013The new 2014 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is upon us, launching initially in North America with turbocharged four-cylinder C300 4Matic and six-cylinder C400 4Matic flavors. But that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg when it comes to the vast array of powertrain configurations that will be offered in the new C-Class in markets around the world. Orders will soon be rolling in for gasoline, hybrid and diesel engines with four, six or eight cylinders, driving the rear wheels or all four, with the seven-speed automatic transmission soon to be replaced by a new nine-speed unit. But what enthusiasts are really looking forward to is the next C63 AMG.
As BMW has done with the M3 (and new M4), Mercedes has gradually ratcheted up the cylinder count in its AMG C-Class, graduating from the 3.6-liter V6 in the original C36 AMG to the 4.3-liter V8 in the C43 AMG, then the 5.5-liter V8 in the C55 AMG before going the distance with the sublime 6.2-liter V8 in the C63 AMG. Like its rivals, Mercedes is expected to use turbochargers as a replacement for displacement in the next model, but unlike its Bavarian rival, it won't be losing any cylinders in the process.
Skipping the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 that has gone on to power other AMG models, the next C63 AMG is still expected to introduce a new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing between 450 and 500 horsepower. It'll also reportedly keep the same seven-speed automatic transmission (instead of switching to the new nine-speed), but the jury's still out on whether it'll come with rear- or all-wheel drive (or offer buyers the choice). The downsized V8 - codenamed M177 - is then expected to find its way into other models, but the C-Class will be the first to get it when it arrives before the end of the new year ahead.
Mercedes C-Class Coupe caught
Thu, Jan 22 2015The Mercedes C-Class Coupe is getting ready for a launch later this year and that means it has to come out and test its long, wide shoulders. Spy photographers caught it in camo around Stuttgart, and there's a bolt-on piece that makes it appear to have a BMW 6 Series-like trunk, but you can ignore that. Genuine changes include it being lower, wider, and "noticeably sportier" as we've been told, and the side mirrors are mounted on the doors instead of in the triangle between the A-pillar and beltline, where they are on the sedan. As with the new sedan, this coupe looks much more mature than the current model, and even under the camo you can see how the sculpting has been emphasized. Notice how the upper swage maintains its punch as it runs through the door handle and over the rear wheel, instead of dipping below the door handle and softening as it does on the sedan. It could get an intro at the Paris Motor Show, maybe even with the convertible by its side, and it's expected to go on sale in Europe later this year. Let your eyes have a taste in the spy shots above.
Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes also under diesel emissions scrutiny
Sat, Oct 10 2015The controversy over Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal isn't limited to the US. In Europe, where diesel engines are far more popular, the issue is shining a harsh light on the NEDC emissions test. As already known, the evaluation does a poor job of reflecting real-world production of NOx, and it appears a significant number of automakers are affected. The Guardian in the UK has been reporting on real-world test results from a company called Emissions Analytics. After the latest round of checks, vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi were found to generate far more NOx than they should. The newspaper also published similar results for Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroen, VW, and Audi. On average, the figures are about four times over the limit of producing the pollutant. Unlike VW and its defeat device, these automakers aren't actually breaking the rules. The vehicles perform up to the NEDC lab test for emissions, but those results simply aren't translated to the street. "The VW issue in the US was purely the trigger which threw light on a slightly different problem in the EU - widespread legal over-emissions," Nick Molden from Emissions Analytics said to The Guardian. A big fight to decide the future of this issue appears to be on the horizon. Automakers claim that they can't meet the next round of tightening emissions regulations and are asking for compromises. Although, spokespeople for Mercedes and Honda told The Guardian that the brands would be in favor of the stricter rules. Meanwhile, some European governments began backtracking their support of diesels well before this scandal came to light. The added scrutiny certain hasn't helped the future of the oil-burner.
