See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"BEAUTIFUL LIGHT YELLOW SINGLE-STAGE ORIGINAL PAINT, SUPER LOW MILEAGE, STARTS AND RUNS AS NEW, ALL RECEIPTS FROM NEW INCLUDED PLUS ORIGINAL WINDOW STICKER."

This cherished second-owner roadster is a meticulously-maintained, garage-kept example that starts and drives beautifully and has been driven for only 50,400 miles since new. Always a California car, it has no rust whatsoever. And it is completely stock except for the chrome wheels, which were an upgraded option.

There are no dings, dents or "hanger rash" along the sides of the sparkling butter yellow body. 
The interior is tan and the leather shows no wear. 
It has rarely been parked in the sun, so there are NO cracks in the dash! 
The previous owner never drove the car without the Pagoda hard top, so when I bought this roadster, the brown soft top had never seen the light of day and is, therefore like new with a clear rear window. I use a hoist in my garage to remove and store the hard top and the hoist is included in the price.

I put a lot of money into this car, expecting to keep it for many years and careful to keep it all stock. Now I am retiring and moving to an area where it won't be practical, so I am offering it to a new care-taker.
Just mentioning some of the work that's been done: it has a new radiator, new fuel pump, new battery, new water pump, recent complete transmission service with necessary parts replacement, and best general maintenance as necessary by the valley's most respected independent Mercedes shop. The AC runs cold. All receipts and service history since new are included, so you can see the complete list of what's been done; including the original window sticker.

This exceptional roadster can be seen and driven at your convenience in North Hollywood, CA during the weekends, or in Studio City, CA weekdays. Or you can contact me with questions you may have.

This LOW MILEAGE and GREAT CONDITION is a rare find.

Maybach and Aston Martin alliance talks fall apart

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

If you have, like us, been salivating at the notion of a new generation of Maybach and Lagonda ultra-luxury crafts built by Aston Martin, we've got some bad news: According to reports emanating from Germany, talks between AML and Daimler have broken down.
The proposal under negotiation would have seen Daimler outsourcing production of the next family of Maybach models to Aston Martin, which in return would benefit from Mercedes-Benz platforms and engines - not only for its svelte GTs, but also for its own future Lagonda line of limousines and luxury SUVs. That, and a boatload of money - or at least that's what AML was reportedly seeking, an issue that served as the stumbling block over which the deal reportedly collapsed.
That's not to say the two parties couldn't still reach some sort of a compromise, but short of that, Daimler may opt to either shut down Maybach altogether, find another partner, or take another stab at building new models internally.

Daimler names Bernd Pischetsrieder to supervisory board

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Some executives in the automotive industry stay with one company for their entire careers, while others bounce from one to the other, often leaving their indelible mark on each automaker at which they serve. Bob Lutz is certainly an example of the latter. So is Lee Iacocca, having presided over Ford and later charing the Chrysler board. Carlos Tavares was chief operating officer of Renault before being nominated as chief executive at PSA Peugeot Citroën. But as far as the Germans go, nobody's jumped from the leadership of one automaker to the next quite like Bernd Pischetsrieder - especially now that he's been named to the supervisory board of Mercedes-Benz parent company Daimler.
An engineer by training, Pischetsrieder started his career at BMW in 1973, eventually rising to the office of CEO after twenty years. There he remained until 1999, only to be dismissed after orchestrating BMW's takeover of the Rover Group (of which only the Mini brand remains in the company's portfolio, the other brands having been sold off after his dismissal).
The next year he was named chairman of Volkswagen's Seat brand, and rose to the chairmanship of the entire Volkswagen Group two years later. Despite a largely successful four-year tenure (that gave birth, incidentally, to the Bugatti Veyron), disagreements with supervisory board chairman Ferdinand Piëch saw him leave the helm at VW AG, focusing his attention on the Scania truck division. He's since been touted as a potential chief executive for Opel and for Continental, but neither potential was apparently realized.

Mercedes giving SL a nose job

Tue, Dec 9 2014

Mercedes tends to keep its SL roadster around longer than most models. The previous fifth-generation machine was launched in 2001, underwent a facelift in 2009 and stuck around until 2012. That's when the current model was introduced, and before it's replaced, Benz is expected to roll out another facelifted version. And that seems to be exactly what we're looking at here. Expected to arrive sometime in 2016 as a 2017 model, the updated SL will likely feature revised styling front and rear (along with updated interior equipment). This prototype appears to be wearing headlights from the new S-Class Coupe, which don't fit precisely, but then Daimler still has a couple of years to get everything just right.
