For personal reasons and having nothing to do with the serviceability of this car; it is time to sell my SL 320 Mercedes; two-seater roadster.  This  luxury roadster is both elegant and comfortable.

The made date is 11/93 on the plate and it will soon be a classic car. To the best of my knowledge it has all Mercedes parts as I have been told by last owner with the exception of the battery that I changed with a non-Mercedes battery (I have since use a trickle charger since I only drive it on nice days; lesson learned from not plugging it in thru a 2nd winter previous Mercedes battery went dead).

I am the fourth owner (#3 prefix on my title) and for the last 4+ years the car has been garage kept and only driven on bluebird days. This car is in exceptionally nice condition and is obviously noticed everywhere it is driven.  I looked long and hard for a future classic in impeccable condition for over a year to as close to show room condition as possible. I do not see any evidence that this car has ever been smoked in but who would know for sure what a first owners habits were.  The ash tray and lighter are completely clean.

I have only added about 2,000 miles to the odometer since I have purchased it. Current odometer reading is less than 106,000 miles. Here are some things that you may find of interest/important or at least I would/did.  And, by all means ask any additional questions you may have.

I had this car, CARFAX’ed before I purchased it in September 2009. The report states that there are no previous or derogatory issues with this car.  That is no, airbag deployment, odometer rollback, accident damage, manufacturer recalls, salvage, water damage or not actual mileage.  Also no damage, odometer or lemon history according to the CARFAX.  And, I will make this report available to you. Accordingly, this car has a clean history and I have a clear title.

And, to the best of my knowledge; the car has all its original paint and has had no body repairs. The car has a few minor scratches here and there but no major scratches and no pushed in indentations in the body. I purchased it with a small crack in the lower plastic front wind flare (as best as I can describe) (hard to notice until you get on your hands and knees to clean the car).  What you see in the pictures is a car that has been washed and waxed but never detailed since I have owned it.

The tires 225/55VR16s were replaced at 99,522 miles Sept. 2008 by the last owner. 

The tires therefore have less than 7,000 miles on them.

I had the tires rebalanced and the car realigned when I first purchased it at 103,000 miles, less than 2,000 miles ago. Oct 2009

I had all the belts and balancer replaced at 104,451 miles, May 2010 Mercedes parts.

I have all the synthetic oil, and oil filter replaced and all fluid levels checked at 104,841 miles, Nov 3, 2010

I have all the transmission fluid and filter replaced at 104,854 miles, Nov 10, 2010 Mercedes parts.

New battery 105,070 miles, Sept 2011 

Original dealer’s manual in pristine condition & roadside tool kit with car.  And maintenance documents above will be made available.

The trunk carpeting looks virtually brand new (no stains what so ever).  I have not cleaned the interior carpeting in 4 years so you may find some dirty spots.   The engine compartment is clean, however not so clean I would be eating off it.  All hoses are solid and pliable, (not dry rotted at all) as they should.  I have never washed the engine compartment, what you see is how I purchased it with 4 years of dust.

The previous owner told me that he garage kept the car and I have no cause to doubt him.  History shows that he purchased the car in May of 2007 at 93,600 miles therefore registering a mere 10,000 miles in the three years that he owned the car. The previous owner also told me that he replaced the rag top and I can tell you that it looks not only brand-new but also works perfectly!

Right after the pictures were taken the car was driven and it runs like a fine Swiss watch.  It has excellent+ acceleration and tremendous stopping power from all speeds. It stops straight and the alignment is fine. The car idles and drives quietly and smoothly without any vibrations.  From mypersonal perspective, you can feel the weight of the car (4300lbs) and it is amazing its road hugging ability.   Basically this car has been a child to me and I have never parked it and left it out of my sight. The original MSRP on this car was about $85,200.

I would prefer that any future owner come out by appointment and look at this car and I will take you for a ride so you can see for yourself what you were buying. We can test all features to your satisfaction together.  This car is being sold in as is condition.

If you are not local be advised that I will not take on the responsibility of shipping this car anywhere.  Nor will I be responsible for the condition of the car upon arrival at your destination. Meaning if you are not satisfied for any reason or if you say something was not disclosed that should have been or that now something is not working that was said to work or you misinterpreted something here it will not be a basis for terminating the sale or adjusting the sale price.  Please make all efforts to come see this car for yourself before placing a bid!

I will accept Paypal for the deposit of $250, but the balance is due upon pick up in cash or money order.

I have over 100 additional pictures of this car and I can e-mail them to you at your request.  I can also take some additional pictures of specific areas that are of interest to you.   One last thing please do not try to sell me that this car is worth XX dollars based upon some book appraisal.  Just try to find a 1994 SL 320 alone in this condition (Paint, body, mileage), and without some sort of restoration.   Not to mention having a solid engine, transmission, great brakes and tires.  Thank you for your patience read and consideration.

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.

Brabus bringing 900-horsepower Mercedes S65 to Geneva

Mon, Mar 2 2015

The S-Class may be the ultimate Mercedes, but what's the ultimate S-Class? Is it the S550? Maybe in some markets, but that's just the starting point in North America. The S600? Getting closer. The Maybach? Sure, if the last word in luxury is what you're after. But if it's performance you crave, then you'll want an AMG version like the S63. But even that's not the flagship. No, in terms of outright power, it all comes down to the S65. It's got a 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 churning out 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, for crying out loud. But Brabus thinks it's still not enough. That's why (alongside the 850-hp S63 coupe) it's bringing a version it calls the Rocket 900 to the Geneva Motor Show this week. To turn the S65 AMG into the Rocket 900, Brabus has bored out the cylinders to total 6.3 liters and fitted larger turbochargers, a new exhaust system, intake module and much, much more. The result is an output increased to 887 bhp and 1,106 lb-ft of torque. Brabus has upgraded the limited slip differential to handle the extra muscle, helping it rocket to 62 in just 3.7 seconds, on to 124 in 9.1 and up to a top speed of 217 Autobahn-crunching miles per hour. The famed Benz tuner has also fitted a carbon-fiber aero kit to keep it from flying away (however unlikely considering the vehicle's approximately 5,000-lb curb weight), along with 21- or 22-inch wheels, a retuned air suspension that drops the ride height over half an inch closer to the road and – we can only hope since the release makes no such mention – upgraded brakes as well to keep it all in check. Brabus also offers a full range of interior enhancements as well, but don't expect any of this to come cheap. As it is, the S65 starts at $222,000, but a turn-key Brabus Rocket 900 goes for 347,719 euros – or about $390k at today's rates.

BRABUS (Brabus-Allee, D-46240 Bottrop, phone +49 / (0) 2041 / 777-0, fax +49 / (0) 2041 / 777 111, internet www.brabus.com) builds this super car based on the new Mercedes S 65.
