 Your bidding on a very low mileage, clean Mercedes-Benz.  Here is the story behind this car.  I'm currently the second owner of this vehicle.  The first person lived in New Jersey and leased it for three years and put approx. 10,000 miles on the car.  In 2010 the car was involved in an accident that required the front quarter panel, bumper, and I believe the hood, to be replaced.  The car was repaired with MB parts and was repaired very well.  There are no signs that this car was ever in an accident.  It runs perfectly with no squeaks or rattles.  Now for the frame/structural issue listed on Carfax.  Mercedes ran this car through the auction at which time the auction "reported" there was structural/frame damage.  Before I purchased the car I had it inspected to see the extent of the damage.  The inspection revealed that there wasn't any structural damage, but since it was reported that way Carfax can not remove that comment from their report.  I felt comfortable with the car and it drove perfectly so I bought it.  I've driven it for two years without a single mechanical issue.  The only service that has been performed has been the annual maintenance items (performed at MB Dealer) and they updated a module in the radio for the MBRACE system.   I put new Michelin tires on at 15,000 miles primarily because I didn't like the Continentals that came as OEM tires.  The Michelin's are a much better riding tire.  As I was preparing to sell the vehicle I didn't want to mislead anyone about the structure of this car so I had it inspected for a second time at a local auto repair center here in Arkansas.  They also confirmed that there isn't any structural damage to this car.  (I've attached a copy of their report along with the pictures)  I've tried to contact Carfax to get this issue resolved, but there isn't anything they can do.  So even though I have much  respect for Carfax, I realize they can't inspect each car and if there is an issue reported in error they still have to include it on the report.  That's the whole story behind the car.  Since the car has this "record" I realize that I can't sell it for what it really should go for.  I bought it at a discounted rate and I'm willing to sell it for a discounted rate as well.  I'm also willing to buy the car back within one week if the buyer were to uncover any structural damage that existed prior to the sale.  (Shipping would be the buyers responsibility)  This CLK 550 had an MSRP over $75,000 new.  It has every option available including the power trunk, A/C Seats, Windscreen, Nav, Permium 2 Pkg, and Bluetooth.  I'm only asking $25,900 and will listen to any reasonable offer.  If you have any concerns or questions please feel free to give me a call.  This is an amazing car for the money.  If you always wanted to own a Mercedes here is your chance without breaking the bank. 

Thanks for looking,

Tony  870-404-4051

Mercedes sues Ferrari-bound F1 engineer for stealing secrets

Tue, Dec 8 2015

Mercedes is suing one of its Formula One engineers, one Benjamin Hoyle, claiming he was planning to take sensitive data to a competitor. An experienced powertrain engineer, Hoyle came to Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains in 2012 with previous experience at Prodrive and Cosworth. One of four team leaders at the company, Hoyle headed up the performance application department until he notified his employers of his intention not to seek renewal of his contract that expires at the end of this year. Once they found out that Hoyle was switching to Ferrari, the higher-ups at Mercedes reassigned him to other, less sensitive duties, however Hoyle was reportedly discovered accessing race reports and other sensitive data relating to the performance of the team's engines. In response, Mercedes has filed suit against Hoyle, claiming that he "and potentially Ferrari have gained an unlawful advantage." The German automaker is seeking the return of all documents and the payment of its legal fees. It also seeks to prevent Hoyle from working for another F1 team throughout next season. Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains is the Daimler's F1 engine division. Based in Brixworth, UK, it was founded back in 1983 together with Ilmor before Mercedes bought it outright. Aside from the company's own works team, the outfit this year powered Williams, Lotus, and Force India, and previously worked with McLaren as well as Sauber. This is not the first time that a case of industrial espionage has emerged in F1. A similar controversy erupted in 2007 surrounding engineers Nigel Stepney and Mike Coughlan. The highly publicized incident became known as "Spygate" or "Stepneygate" and involved the illegal sharing of secrets between Ferrari, McLaren, and Renault.

2016 Mercedes C-Class Coupe offers S-Class style on a budget

Tue, Sep 15 2015

This is the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and it's the new best-looking vehicle in the small, luxury, sport coupe market. Bold praise, you say? Well, check out the live photos up top and let us know if you still disagree. As previously mentioned, the C-Class Coupe uses the same tactic as its four-door brother, aping the look of the flagship S-Class, but on a smaller, far more affordable scale. That means the same bold but sophisticated front fascia, slim, horizontally oriented taillights, and strong character line as the S-Class Coupe. It's a similar deal in the cabin, where Mercedes stuck with the aluminum and leather-heavy styling of the S-Class. It's a handsome cockpit for sure, complete with a meaty, flat-bottomed steering wheel and prominent display atop the dash. Although like its big brother, those backseats are there more for show than anything else, thanks to that plunging, fastback-like roofline. Expect the engine options on the C-Class Coupe to mirror those on the four-door sedan, with a base 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, a twin-turbocharged V6, and eventually, a range-topping, fire-breathing C63 AMG. You can guess which one we're most eager to drive. Rear-wheel drive should be standard, although expect Mercedes' popular 4Matic all-wheel-drive system to be a popular option. Seven-speed automatic transmissions should be the order of the day, while the C63 will get some incarnation of the brand's AMG Speedshift line. As we suggested at the beginning of this story, you should check out our full gallery of photos direct from the floor of the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show.
