I'm selling my 1993 300SE. -LAST OF THE TANKS- Rare Tropen Green Metallic two tone,Mushroom SMOKE FREE Interior (tan). This car is in Great condition for its age with only minor wear from 20 years of use. locks, keyless entry, power windows and sunroof all work perfectly, although I suspect the left rear windows may be due for a regulator soon.. and the power antenna is in need for a new motor ( mast is fine) ..I just don't use it either of those two things. I am the 4th owner. 201,120 Miles. This car is unique in the fact that it has had the opportunity to be owned by owners that believed in maintenance at a Mercedes dealer and following the actual Mercedes Benz service schedule (rare). Selling this car because I've bought a new F-150.. The owner before me was a Mercedes tech and took meticulous care of this car. He had worked on it for the previous owners at the dealership and noted the care they put into it and bought it when it was traded in. The car looks great for the age, the paint cleans up well, although starting to show its age. However no peeling or anything like that. The front bumper has some scratches in it. NO CORROSION! This car- up until last year, was GARAGE KEPT. The car has 4 Michelin Primacy MXV4 tires with about 25k put onto them as they look pretty new still. Oil Changes with Mobil 15w40 Every 3,000k since new, plugs every 15k miles, filters and all exactly to spec and only using Genuine Mercedes Benz parts. Car Does not burn oil, Runs GREAT and has a lot of documented work done on it. Lots of receipts from previous owner and some other maintenance documentation. There however is one problem with the car which has actually been going on for the past 50k miles.. The Transmission has a strange shift from 2nd to 3rd- I bought it this way from the former owner - (Mercedes Technician) He actually bought it that way too... He drove it for about 40K like that and I drove it for about 10K with no change in frequency or indications of it getting worse. For what its worth, the official opinion of the Mercedes tech was that it doesn't act like a mechanical slip but more as if its a modulation or valve body issue such as a spring .Other than that, this car is really in great shape! I Drove this car 50 Miles a day as a daily driver as did the previous owner before me with out a single issue. This car has had so much done to it for it to slip into someones hands for a parts car or junker. Below I will list SOME of the maintenance history that's within the last 40k. Also two very noteworthy maintenance issues that were addressed with this car the correction of two very common COSTLY issues with this car... one being the A/C Evaporator ( Huge Job consisting of 28 Hours of labor and 1800 in parts) so the Climate control works 100% and the A/C is ice cold. The other is the Engine wiring harness- another Mercedes issue for a few years... the coating of the wires deteriorated faster than the car resulting in a barrage of electrical problems ... this was also FIXED and a new updated MB harness installed. Please Note this is a 20 year old car and that there are items that are worn from age and so forth and I am not offering any warranty implied or given as this car is to be sold as-is. To my knowledge, I have described this car as best I could so there are no hidden issues as I take pride in my honesty in all my listings when selling items- look at my feedback. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask before you bid. May be able to help with arranging shipping ( at your expense) if necessary.
(Pics I took were from February after I got it detailed for the year.) Happy Bidding!!

Rare Isdera Imperator 108i flexes its considerable muscles
Mon, 05 Aug 2013The Isdera Imperator 108i is a remarkably rare supercar from the late 80s and early 90s. Born of a Mercedes-Benz concept car, it's powered by a range of AMG-developed V8s, with five to six liters of displacement, depending on the engine. The example shown here, lapping the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit, features the most potent 6.0-liter V8 available. And rather than just being driven about on a perfectly clean racing line, it's freaking power sliding!
Yes, there's something eternally childlike about a wedge-shaped supercar from our formative years being flung about a Belgian racetrack. Adding to the appeal is the Imperator's stumpy, periscopic rear mirror, sticking out of the roof. Even after being out of production for 20 years, this is still a wild, wild car and we'd happily snap up the opportunity pilot one of the 36 Isderas that were built. Take a look below for the full video from Spa.
Smart will go electric-only in United States and Canada
Tue, Feb 14 2017By 2018, the Smart car brand will be only known as an electric vehicle manufacturer in the US. According to Automotive News, sales of gasoline-powered Smart cars will cease later this year, and Daimler will develop the product portfolio into a solely electrified one. This coincides with the upcoming launch of the new generation Smart ForTwo electric drive models this summer. Automotive News claims to have obtained a letter from Mercedes-Benz USA CEO Dietmar Exler sent to US dealers. In it, he underlines the decision to go electric-only, saying "developments within the micro-car segment present some challenges for the current Smart product portfolio," and that the change will only affect North American sales. Production of US-destined gasoline-powered Smarts will cease in April, and sales will continue until stock runs out. The current generation has been on sale from 2015, and it hasn't reached the 2014 sales peak of 10.453 units of the previous generation; last year, there were little more than 6.200 Smarts sold in the States. The first electric drive Smarts were unveiled a decade ago, but they became available in the USA five years later, initially via various trial programs, including Car2Go fleets. Related Video:
Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is Affalterbach's first big leap into the little pond
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The recent history of AMG is turning out amped-up versions of Mercedes-Benz offerings that would hardly ever be mistaken for their sedate counterparts. Sure, you'd need to pay attention to pick a G-Class from the G63 AMG, but dual side-pipes are a quick giveaway. The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is not only a new era in Affalterbach's attention on smaller cars, it is probably also the most subtle transformation we can think of in the line-up.
Low and chunky enough in standard guise to make a sporting impression, the aesthetic makeover is confined to black trim around the lower rim of the hatch, black wheels with red brake calipers and a single, rectangular exhaust tip on either side of the diffuser. It's easier to make a positive ID inside, where the flat-bottomed steering wheel, red seatbelts and red-rimmed details say, "You know what I am..."
If the car is running, though, it won't take but a second. The 2.0-liter turbo spitting 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet will grumble through a sport exhaust at idle, and bellow through the same on it's way to a 0-60 time of less than 4.5 seconds. And if you need something that looks a little harder - and you want those quad pipes - then the A45 AMG Edition 1 is the treasure you seek. There's a press release below for all the info you'll need until the hot hatch goes on sale in Germany later this year, and photos for the rest of us while we wait to find out if we'll get a chance to buy it.
