"several have asked yes it is automatic 7 speed"
I purchased this car for my home in Miami, yada yada yada my girlfriend left and I no longer have my home in Miami so I drove the car back to my Phoenix home.
This car had a rebuilt title when I purchased it. I drove it for almost 20,000 miles, even back and forth from Miami to Phoenix two times without one issue. On the road I got about 30 mpg.
When I purchased it the guy explained it was a theft recovery and there was some damage to the drivers door. Since the insurance company paid it off and there was some damage to the door it had to be titled as rebuilt. The computer was replaced because the old one was stolen so the mileage had to be listed as unknown. The rims were also replaced because they were stolen.
I took it to Mercedes of Miami for a full inspection, they said the car was perfect and the mechanic could not find any damage. The mechanic also said the milage (36,000) was accurate for the inspection. He advised for new tires and changing the brake fluid. I put new tires on about 5000 miles ago and never changed the brake fluid.
This car looks and runs great. I would have no issue driving it to anywhere in the country.
Problems with the car;
The GPS and road maps do not come up on the display.
On the left rear of the bumper there is a chip of paint knocked off from another vehicle grazing it (see pic).
On the passenger door one of my mountain bikes fell over and put a couple pressure dents. Hard to see unless you look close. I took it to a paintless det repair place and they told me $75 to fix it. But I did not have the time to leave it (see pic).
I have been straight forward and honest. I can tell you the car looks great and runs perfectly. There are no mechanical issues and you can jump in and take it anywhere.
I am listing this at a great low start price with no reserve. If you are the winning bidder you bought it. If you would like to see and drive the car I am in Mesa Arizona.
Sold As Is
Please ask if you have questions and do not bid unless you intend to finish the transaction.
Thank you for looking Paul
Please note the car needs to be washed in the pictures it is filthy it has been raining non stop in Phoenix.

Mercedes-AMG considering turbo fours, hybrid sixes for future performance sedans
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Think of the letters AMG and you'll probably end up picturing a performance sedan with a big V8. Such has become, after all, the Mercedes turning division's calling card. But with the introduction of its 2.0-liter turbo four, AMG is working at turning that notion on its head.
The highly potent engine produces 355 horsepower and is presently installed in the A45 AMG hatchback, CLA45 AMG sedan and GLA45 AMG crossover, giving Benz's smallest family a full range of performance models. But that might not be the full extent of the high-strung four-pot's use.
Speaking with AMG boss Tobias Moers, Britain's What Car? magazine reports that Affalterbach is considering slotting the same engine into larger models, particularly performance sedans like the C-Class. As we recently reported, Mercedes is already preparing to up the power from the turbo V6 in the C400 to slot a C450 Sport in below the C63 AMG. The C450 is expected to offer around 367 horsepower where the CLA45 AMG et al pack 355, but the lighter weight of the four-cylinder engine would likely offset the truancy of those extra dozen horses. Of course such a prospect would be much further down the pipeline than the C450 Sport which is expected to arrive much sooner.
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.

Mercedes GLE Coupe spotted in almost undisguised AMG form
Wed, Dec 3 2014Say what you will regarding the form and function of the BMW X6, the bottom line is that BMW essentially pioneered a winning formula, sloping a roofline onto an existing model to make a new and highly lucrative) derivative. No wonder rival Mercedes-Benz is clamoring to follow suit with models like the one pictured here. Under development for some time now, the model originally slated to be called the MLC and now expected to be dubbed GLE Coupe looks about ready for its big debut. It's based on the replacement for the current M-Class (to be rechristened GLE) but with that vital sloping roofline to make it more rakish. This particular example seems to be an AMG version and was spied with only minimal camouflage around the front and rear bumpers while undergoing testing in snowy climes. That could be the full-on GLE63 AMG performance variant, or the new AMG Sport model destined to debut at the Detroit Auto Show next month. If it's the former, expect it to be packing the same 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 as the new Mercedes-AMG GT, where it produces either 462 horsepower or 510 depending on spec - ready to take on the X6 M and whatever Audi is preparing to throw at it.
