1959 Mercedes Benz 190Sl 

The Road & Track October 1955 Test Said "The outstanding achievement of the 190SL is without a doubt its quality in design and workmanship. But a close second is the general feeling of solidity which it immediately conveys..."

        There's nothing like driving a 190sl, although it is known as the Little brother of the Iconic 300sl (Gulwing) It is a must to drive. With all the history behind this vehicle and the amazing driving experience, this vehicle is a must have, considering that it's 55 years old and has independent suspension she drives like a dream. If your looking for a beautiful car that gets a lot of attention: this is it! especially with its bright red paint and its unique body. 

The vehicle is mechanically sound. I just had new Weber carburetors installed. at the local Mercedes specialist with a full tune up. The suspension is perfect and has all new Bilstein shocks and pretty new tires. The transmission is sound, the clutch is relatively new transmission shifts smooth and goes through every gear. I also recently had a new carpet installed and firmed up the seats. The seats are original and in great shape. I also had a new alpine head unit, with four speakers installed and a four channel amplifier. the head unit is in the glove box and the front two speakers are under the dash. I believe the front speakers are hanging by the magnet in the back of them. and the back two speakers are mounted in the wood removable floor board. 

I forgot to take pictures with the top closed. the top is in great condition and i believe it is original

I

I reserve to end the auction early since the car is for sale locally. The vehicle is sold as is where is. and there is a $2,000.00 dollar deposit due 24 hours of auction end. and the vehicle must be picked up within 5 days of auction end. The vehicle is available to come and look but not drive you must make an appointment. if you have any questions feel free to message.

Daimler: 2017 the right time to launch our hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle

Tue, Jul 22 2014

Zero-emissions vehicle development has never focused purely on off-the-line acceleration. So when a research executive with Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler says it's Okay that companies like Toyota and Hyundai will have a head start selling hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle, it's somewhat believable. But is Daimler really fine with being two years behind? It appears so. Daimler plans on debuting its first fuel-cell vehicle in 2017, Automotive News says, citing an interview Automobilwoche had with Daimler's corporate research chief Herbert Kohler. The German automaker estimated about a decade ago that it would be able to get fuel-cell production costs down to an "acceptable" level in 2012, but it turns out that estimate was about five years too aggressive. Daimler originally started leasing out a limited number of its F-Cell hydrogen vehicles in the US for $849 a month, though later brought that down to $599 a month. Daimler says it received a boost in its effort to accelerate fuel-cell powertrain development when it reached an agreement early last year with Nissan and Ford to work together on speeding up relevant powertrain technology. While Toyota's first fuel-cell vehicle in Japan is priced at almost $70,000 (before big government incentives kick in), Kohler says Daimler's first fuel-cell vehicle will be priced similar to a hybrid vehicle. Of course, that's a Mercedes-Benz hybrid we're talking about here, but still. Related Gallery Mercedes-Benz F-Cell View 9 Photos News Source: Automotive News - sub. req.

Firing of M-B boss upheld

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Ernst Lieb, the disgraced former CEO of American operations for Mercedes-Benz, will not be getting any more money from the Silver Arrow'd teat. His wrongful dismissal suit against MB's parent company, Daimler, was tossed out of a German appeals panel. This, followed the initial rejection by a lower court last year.
According to court documents acquired by Automotive News, Lieb was found to have "accepted payments of substantial value to which he - as he was aware - had no claim."
Lieb took over American operations from former CEO Paul Halata in September of 2006. Reports surfaced in October of 2011 that Lieb was dismissed from his posting at MB, with a variety of rumors swirling. Eventually, news broke that financial wrong doing was responsible for the German's firing.
