I have owned this beautiful G500 for almost 5 years, and have kept it under Mercedes Benz warranty the entire time (warranty expires 6/22/14). I wanted the vehicle to look exactly as it does, and it took some time and expense to get it there. The wheels are powder coated in textured black. The stereo/nav was replaced with a Kenwood, ipod friendly unit, with much updated nav, etc., amp and 10" sub in back. Obviously, this gives you much better navigation and a much, much better stereo. The Hannibal roof rack was not available in the US until I bought this one, and it was a couple of thousand dollars, but makes the vehicle. The rear spare tire is a BF Goodrich all-terrain like the others, and contains locking storage compartment, for that more off-road (and black) look. The four rolling tires are in great shape. It has the brush guard, light guards, etc. in black as well. The stock spare tire cover (chrome surround, etc) comes with the truck if you like that look, but it will not fit over the BFG tire, as well as the stock stereo. There are full weather tech rubber mats covering entire floor in vehicle and cargo area. The truck has 115,000 miles at this point, and we are reluctantly replacing it with something newer for a daily driver. Already have a 911 TT that just sits in the garage or this would be kept. I never get tired of looking at this car. If you are not familiar with G-wagens, you should familiarize yourself with them before bidding on this vehicle. They are amazing vehicles designed with specific purposes in mind. For example, this car will drive around on hills in the snow like there is no snow. They are amazing. However, they are not Range Rovers. They are not luxury grocery haulers. If you have not driven one, much less a 7 year old one, you should do so before buying this vehicle. It has been maintained as well as any G-wagen around, but they are noisy, rough-riding, somewhat uncivilized vehicles. Knowing that, there is not a more unique ride around. If you like attention, or you don't, you are going to get a lot of it. Email me with questions or to request more pictures at rnridout@ridoutlumber.com. I had a little trouble uploading some of the pictures for some reason so some did not make it into ad. There is one star on the windshield and one small ding that looks like it was caused by a golf ball beside the gas door. I have included a picture of each. The pockets on inside bottom of the two front doors have been removed because they creak constantly when driving. BTW, this car is not being sold b/c of the accident. After had already decided to sell, wife's foot stuck under brake because of UGG boot, and she hit car in school parking lot. Brush guard bent and hit passenger front fender crimping it slightly; nothing mechanical. All parts replaced, and repair carries lifetime warranty. You cannot tell it occurred. Car looks amazing. Happy bidding.

Mercedes to roll out C63 AMG late in 2014 with 4.0L V8

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

The 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 pays tribute to 1955 Mille Miglia with special-edition SL

Wed, Feb 18 2015

The Mercedes-Benz SL is one of the longest-running nameplates in the business, and its history has been marked with numerous achievements. But few were as impressive as the 1955 running of the Mille Miglia, and Mercedes pays tribute to that race and the results it achieved there with this latest special-edition roadster. Called the SL Special Edition Mille Miglia 417, this roadster starts with the eight-cylinder SL550 with dynamic stability management and adaptive damping and adds on several highlights. Red trim adorns the front spoiler, the stripe across the matte carbon rear spoiler, the brake calipers and the rims of the black AMG Performance wheels. The red pieces accent the matte black paint, while the interior features AMG Line sports seats with carbon-finish leather and red trim, along with a red and black nappa leather steering wheel and carbon trim. The SL arrives 60 years after the Mille Miglia in which a 300 SL driven by American gentleman racer John Fitch - bearing the number 417 and starting at 4:17 a.m. - led a 1-2-3 class finish, landing fifth overall and leaving many purpose-built racers in the dust. The special edition is confirmed for the US, arriving this fall with pricing to be announced closer to launch. SPECIAL EDITION SL "MILLE MIGLIA 417" Exclusive SL passion February 17, 2015 - Stuttgart -- Mercedes-Benz celebrates the 60th anniversary of a memorable motor racing success with an extraordinary special model of the SL Roadster. Its name commemorates the unexpected victory of a 300 SL in the production sports cars class at the 1955 "Mille Miglia", one of the world's most challenging long-distance races. What's more: the SL Special Edition "Mille Miglia 417" provides a special experience of the unique symbiosis of maximum comfort and motor racing spirit that traditionally characterizes every SL. The Special Edition adds a distinctive note, among other things, with red exterior highlights and fine materials in the exclusively appointed interior. The Mercedes-Benz SL Roadster is more than an icon. Passion shapes its character and its charisma – in the past and today. Legendary vehicles and their stories dominate the model history. One of them is told by the SL that started the famous "Mille Miglia" in 1955 with race number 417 at 4:17 am. After 11 hours, 29 minutes and 21 seconds it had completed the race distance of 1597 kilometres on public roads from Brescia to Rome and back.
