It was time for my friend to get a new car, so I am selling his trade-in for him. There is nothing about the Mercedes that made him want to trade up, the car is in excellent condition. He was the second owner and has driven 80,000 miles since he purchased the car. It has always been maintained properly, and it treated him well. The miles are getting high, but the car drives wonderfully. The engine is smooth and quiet, the transmission shifts smoothly without slippage or harshness, the a/c and heater work well with the automatic climate control. All the windows and locks work. It even has memory seating on both front seats. I can't think of anything at all that doesn't work fine. I have been driving the car for a week now, and I will hate to give it up.
The car has recent new Michelin tires and rear brakes. It passed smog check with no issues. The registration is even paid through January of 2014. Just a $30 transfer fee and your good.
There have been no accidents that I know of and the CarFax is perfect. There are of course some sand and rock chips in the front end and a small flaw in the right side door edge. The pictures show them. Yes, they are small and have been touched up with paint. I see the lower front air deflector is missing, must have got knocked off on a parking stop. The roof has some faded clear coat paint. I have connections and can paint it, or apply carbon fiber vinyl, before delivery for $350 extra, if you want the car perfect. The rest is of the outside and the inside is awesome. The leather interior had sheepskins, so it is in great condition, and without many wrinkles even. Never been smoked in as far as I can tell. I sent it to the detail shop, so it is really clean and spotless now.
The gas mileage is rated at 29 MPG. Now that's an efficient V6 engine!
I like to let the bidders set the fair market price, so have at it for sale at "no reserve".
The blue book value, even with the miles, is $6203.00. the wholesale value is $3943.00. I have the original window sticker and it shows a MSRP of $48140.00
I would think the car should sell for $3500 to $4000 and will make someone very happy. I could sell it in the local paper, but I don't want to wait for the extra $1500 I could get. I have the title in hand, and it's clear, not branded. The car is available to see and drive during the auction. Email me your phone number for an appt.
I am low key and easy going. I have worked with cars for over 30 years, so please no scams or trade offers. No, I will not end the auction early.
I request a non-refundable $300 deposit within 48 hours of auction ending. If you don't like your purchase for any good reason, in person, after a drive, that $300 deposit is all you stand to lose. Yes, walk away if you like, the car is that nice.
I will report all non paying winners for no deposits, or disappearing acts. Please ask questions before bidding. Email is good, if you need to talk, email your phone #, and I will call you. Cash balance is accepted on pickup. Please pick up the car within 7 days in Thousand Oaks, CA.
Shipping is available if YOU do all of the work. I will hand the trucker the keys.

Clark Gable's 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing doesn't sell, then does sell for $1.85 million [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013How much extra value does previous celebrity ownership add to of a car? Really, there's no way to know until the car in question hits the auction block and bidders start raising their hands. In the case of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing you see above, the celebrity owner is none other than Clark Gable, who purchased it new. After Gable's death in 1960, the car changed hands a few times before settling with Charles Wood in 1975.
A high-dollar restoration was performed in 1989, and period accessories added by Gable himself were kept in place, including the Rudge knock-off wheels and Nardi steering wheel. Any Mercedes-Benz 300SL is worth a big chunk of money. In the case of Clark Gable's old Gullwing, the bidding stalled at $1.9 million here at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. As one of the 5000-series cars, this 300SL carried a reserve, and a bit of after-the-fact dealmaking saw the car change hands for $1.85 million.
You can see our high-res image gallery above, and the car's official auction description below.
Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold
Wed, 08 Feb 2012Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class spied once again
Fri, 08 Feb 2013As evidenced by how little camouflage the next-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class has been caught wearing lately, it can't be too much longer until the car will get its official debut. In our newest shots of the yacht-sized luxo sedan, the cladding still covers up the headlights, front fascia and most of the rear end, but we finally have an almost undisguised look at the rest of the car's lines.
Considering previous spy shots had more camo that better (or fully) concealed the S-Class' body, some of the more obvious things we see in these images include the prominent grille, the CLS-Class-inspired bodyside creases, the pointed trunk opening and, most interestingly, a lack of fancy exhaust outlets. Unlike other S-Class prototypes we've seen, this car does not have integrated outlets, but it does have two pipes on the left side of the car. All current S-Class models in the US and Europe feature a dual exhaust layout on each side of the car, so while some of our questions about the car get answered, it would appear that more are just arising.
