Emmitt Smith Dallas Cowboys Rookey Car Gas Monkey Garage Fast And N Loud Sl 300 on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
Before Emmitt Smith became Lincoln Motor Company’s brand ambassador, he purchased a 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300SL hard top convertible to celebrate signing on with the Dallas Cowboys. We are all familiar with Smith’s illustrious football career – three Super Bowl championships, NFL’s all-time leading rusher with 18,355 yards in 15 seasons, the only player to have won a Super Bowl MVP, NFL MVP, and NFL Rushing Crown in the same season, and inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010. But what became of that historic convertible that was purchased proudly during Smith’s rookie year with the Cowboys? HERE IS HOW RICHARD RAWLINGS DESCRIBED THE CAR : 1991 Mercedes-Benz SL300 ***EMMITT SMITHS ROOKIE RIDE!!!*** The year is 1990 and Emmitt Smiths dream to play for the Dallas Cowboys comes true. Whats the first thing he buys? a brand new 1991 Mercedes-Benz SL300 Convertible! Now Emmitt has had many great vehicles to date, but only one was his first Rookie Ride as an NFL Player. And now your dream can come true by owning this historic vehicle that was "All Time's" first ride! Emmitt has verified this as his first car after signing with the Dallas Cowboys ( we found an old expired American Express Card under the seat ! that is NOT included in the sale). This vehicle will be seen on an upcoming episode of the hit show "Fast n Loud" and the winning bidder will have the option of taking delivery here on the show! This car is in Good condition needing some TLC ( rt.front marker lens, fog lamps, new wiper blade, etc....) We recently aquired this Mercedes-Benz after verifying it was Emmitt Smiths, washed it a drove it for a short period of time for filming purposes. It runs & drives like ,well, a Mercedes-Benz ! The Interior needs some TLC to be perfect, but is certainly enjoyable the way it is. The Speedometer is not working nor is the Tach or fuel gauge so true mileage is unknown. See all pictures & ask any questions. We sell Internationally as well as locally & will end the auction when it sales. Clear TexasTitle in hand. There is a special plaque that is engraved "BUILT ESPECIALLY FOR EMMITT SMITH #22" w/ the Mercedes-Benz emblem on it that is attached to the original center glove box cover,which was removed from the vehicle for safe guarding prior to our receiving it. This glove box cover is included with the purchase. I'll try to add a picture. |

Mercedes testing C-Class plug-in hybrid modes in Germany
Wed, 07 May 2014Testing appears to be underway for what would be the first Mercedes-Benz C-Class with a hybrid powertrain. We can see a pair of the prototypes undergoing testing in Germany, with one, a C-Class Wagon, still heavily clad in camouflage and featuring a more noticeable outlet on the passenger side of its rear bumper.
There's also a more production-looking sedan, which features a not-so-discreet flap over its rear-bumper outlet. It's difficult to speculate on power outputs for this fuel-sipping C-Class, although our spies seem to think that this car will feature some combination of a four-cylinder gas engine with an electric motor, although just which four is unclear (note, we wouldn't mind if MB fit its 2.0-liter turbo with some batteries and motors). Regardless, the four-pot/electric motor seems like a pretty reasonable combo, although it probably means that Mercedes won't be challenging the six-cylinder-powered system of the BMW ActiveHybrid3 any time soon.
When the plug-in C-Class arrives later this year as a 2015 model, it will likely offer a full range of driving modes, including both gas or electric, only, as well as a more traditional hybrid mode.
2014 Mercedes S-Class priced lower from $92,900*
Mon, 09 Sep 2013The massively overhauled 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will start at $92,900, not including a $925 destination fee, when it arrives at US dealers in October. That's a 2.8-percent drop over the 2013 S-Class, although Mercedes is fast to point out that a drop in price doesn't equate with a drop in equipment for the executive sedan.
Besides an extra 20 horsepower from the 4.6-liter, biturbocharged V8, the S550 sports a standard panoramic sunroof, keyless start, a rear-view camera and LED headlights, taillights and interior lights. Adding the German manufacturer's 4Matic all-wheel-drive system bumps the S550's price up to $95,900.
If the S550 doesn't quite cut the mustard, you can wait until November, at which point Mercedes will quite happily sell you the new S63 AMG 4Matic for $139,500. Power is also up on the S63, from a max of 563 ponies with an AMG Performance Package to 577 horsepower as standard on the 2014 model.
2015 Mercedes C-Class order guide leaked
Wed, 23 Apr 2014We may not have an official starting price for the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class, but as of right now, we can tell you about all the options for the eagerly anticipated new luxury sedan.
Benz Report has the entire order guide for the C-Class, with breakdowns from package pricing to how many different colors, wheel designs and lighting configurations will be available when the new model hits dealers later this year. As we mentioned in our initial review of the C-Class, there will be a pair of engine options, with the now familiar 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder available in both rear- and all-wheel-drive configurations and a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V6, which can be had in all-wheel drive, only.
From there, though, the available options are impressive. Much like it does on the current car, Mercedes is offering a pair of packages that sort of define the entire car. With the C300, buyers will have the choice of either a Sport or Luxury package in addition to the base trim, while C400 buyers are limited to the Sport model.
