You are viewing a beautiful 2001 Mercedes Benz SLK 320. This car has been in our family since purchased new in 2000. This is a one owner car! It is extremely rare as it was one of only two spec'd in this manner on the East coast when purchased new. The color combination, sport pkg and 6 speed manual combination is what makes it so unique. Over $ 5,000 in upgrades have been added to this car, including:
Renntech Carbon Fiber Air Intake Renntech ECU tune Renntech Catback Exhaust Upgraded 18 inch Brabus Style Monoblock Wheels Brembo Rotors Red Brake Caliper Paint Professionally Applied The car puts out about 240 hp and 250 tq. It is still quick by today's standards and sounds incredible. Factory Options: AMG Sport Package 6 Disc Cd Changer Condition: The car is mechanically fantastic. The engine pulls hard and runs perfect, the clutch still feels the same as it did new, and the brakes are very strong. The exterior paint is smooth and in excellent condition with your typical small stone chips that are barely noticeable. The interior has normal wear and tear for a car of this age, but it still looks stunning in the two-tone charcoal/crimson combination. The AC, heat, radio and CD changer all work perfectly. I believe in being an honest seller, so I will summarize what the car needs. The convertible roof currently does not work. Luckily, these tops are not as expensive to repair as the old SL500s . A reputable local shop diagnosed that the car needs a new electrical pump/actuator and estimated the cost at about $1,500. Second, the car will show a check engine light about once a month for a day or so. It has been diagnosed as a mass airflow sensor. Cost to replace is about $400. For example, I have been driving the car for the past month, and the check engine light came on only once and then turned off again on the same day. There is no check engine light on as of now. Third, there is a small crack in the front drivers side wheel. It is completely cosmetic and has been there for over 30k miles with no problems to driveability. The car was involved in two very MINOR fender benders (not my fault, and needless to say I was not pleased) about 10 and 13 years ago, respectively. But as you can see from the photos, it was expertly repaired by the best body shop in town and it looks like new and drives perfectly. Again, the car had ZERO driveability issues following the repairs and has required nothing but regular servicing since. Please feel free to contact me to discuss. I envision the next owner of this car as someone who knows they're getting a very rare and special SLK, but also understands that it will take a small investment to repair the items that I have mentioned above. The next owner will also get the original 17 inch AMG wheels ( they have some curb rash, but I would be willing to pay to repair them if I receive an offer close to Buy It Now), the original exhaust and air box. Basically, the car can be returned to stock if desired. I have owned this car for 14 years and maintained it meticulously both cosmetically and with regard to regular servicing. It saddens me to sell it because it has been such a pleasure to own, but it deserves a loving new home for Christmas! Thanks for looking and please do not hesitate to contact me with questions or to discuss an offer. Since I am also advertising the car locally, please be aware that I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Houston's bus revival, autonomous trucks on the Autobahn
Thu, Apr 7 2016A documentary shows how Houston, Texas significantly improved its outdated bus system. Called High Frequency: Why Houston is Back on the Bus, the short film describes how the city reimagined its bus system to become more efficient, more useful and more popular. Despite some opposition, the change has proven to be effective, with bus ridership up eight percent in three months, and light rail ridership up due to complementary bus routes. See the video above, and read more at CityLab. Automakers sent autonomous semi trucks on the German Autobahn as part of the European Truck Platooning Challenge of 2016. Mercedes-Benz, Volvo and Scania, among other groups, sent platoons of trucks between Stuttgart, Germany, and Rotterdam, Holland. In Mercedes's platoon of three trucks, the lead truck was fitted with lasers and other sensors to guide the convoy down the road. The two following trucks relied on vehicle-to-vehicle communication to trail 50 feet behind the lead, making room for cars to come between them and closing the gaps when able. The close following distance provides fuel economy gains of up to 10 percent in the rearward trucks on account of the reduction in drag. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Renault has reduced NOx emissions in its Euro 6b diesel vehicles in real world driving conditions. By improving its exhaust gas recirculation systems and NOx traps, nitrogen oxide emissions are cut in half on average, under certain driving conditions. The improvements will be included in vehicles leaving the factory beginning in July of 2016. Beginning in October, owners of Renault Euro 6b diesels can have the modifications added to their cars for free. Read more from Renault. Tata Technologies is creating an innovation lab in California to partner with EV technology companies. Having a tech center in California allows Tata to work on technologies that will largely be deployed in the company's main market of Asia. "Today, we are partnering with companies and startups who have aspirations to sell in China, but a lot of what they do is in California," says Samir Yajnik of Tata Technologies.

RideCell provides technology for services such as carsharing, ridesharing and other transit services. "The convergence of transportation trends in cities is of key importance to BMW," says Ulrich Quay, head of BMW i Ventures.
Race recap: 2016 Belgian Grand Prix is a dozen angry laps
Mon, Aug 29 2016The calm of the Formula One summer break ended with the tumult of the Belgian Grand Prix. The first two days included unusual tire pressures and grid penalties; Mercedes-AMG Petronas' Lewis Hamilton started 21st because of a 55-place grid penalty for engine and gearbox changes, McLaren's Fernando Alonso started 22nd due to a 60-place penalty for the same offenses. The bedlam rolled right into what was effectively an 11-or 12-lap race. Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg took off from pole and the cameras barely bothered with him until he took the checkered flag 44 laps later. Red Bull's Max Verstappen bogged from second on the grid, got swallowed by Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen on the way to Turn 1, then attempted to recover by sticking his Red Bull's nose between Raikkonen's sidepod and the apex at the first corner. Vettel, who didn't see Verstappen, turned into La Source leaving only enough room for Raikkonen. Three cars don't fit in a space for two cars. Vettel spun, Raikkonen and Verstappen clobbered one another and all three drivers had to pit for repairs. Force India's Nico Hulkenberg zig-zagged his way into second ahead of Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo, Williams' Valtteri Bottas, and Sergio Perez in the second Force India. On Lap 6 Kevin Magnussen lost his Renault at Raidillon at the top of Eau Rouge and flew backward into an enormous crash. Magnussen escaped with just a cut ankle. The Safety Car paraded the field for four laps before officials red flagged the race to repair the barriers. When racing resumed on Lap 10, Rosberg led Ricciardo, Hulkenberg, Alonso, and Hamilton. Ricciardo stayed ahead of Hamilton to keep second place at the end of the race, Hamilton easily got around Alonso and Hulkenberg to lock up third. Hulkenberg – who'd given up second to Ricciardo by pitting during the Safety Car period – earned another career-best fourth position ahead of teammate Perez in fifth, followed by Vettel and Alonso on recovery drives, Bottas, Raikkonen, and Felipe Massa taking 10th in the second Williams. Rosberg reignited his Driver's Championship charge with the victory, closing to nine points of leader Hamilton. We could argue that Hamilton had an equally good day by driving from 21st to third, limiting his loss to only 10 points. About that Verstappen, though... We've seen far more experienced drivers attempt the same move Verstappen made into Turn 1 – Raikkonen on Bottas in Russia in 2015, for instance.
