--------------CALLING ALL MERCEDES 560 LOVERS & COLLECTORS!!!-----------------------------------------------------------------------1st $6900 OR BEST REASONABLE OFFER GETS THIS GEM! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------WOW! Where do I begin to describe this STUNNING "ALL ORIGINAL & classic Mercedes 560 SEC. Well, For those of you familiar with this Incredible "Flagship" Mercedes model You already know that this top of the line model always featured the BEST and most extravagant and luxurious features that were available at the time, putting this car decades ahead of its time for design performance and comfort, not to mention durability!, This cars general overall rarity makes them a very attractive buy for collectors and Mercedes fans alike, and RARER still are CLEAN and Original 560 SEC's that are from the southwest, have never been wrecked, are "matching numbers" cars with CLean title, and CLean title history! This one meets all of those criteria and more, not to mention how nice the car looks! There are Tons of Buyers out there for SEC's right now , and these cars are poised firmly on the comeback trail since many auto collectors have begun to snatch them up knowing that these rare roadsters were among the finest cars ever to come out of Mercedes , In Fact, Many believe this 560 series to be among THE best cars that Mercedes or anyone else ever produced! (.....Theres a reason that they were nearly $100k new! ).... And speaking of production , only 28,000 of these Mercedes "dream" cars were ever made during the entire production run during the years 1985 to 1991, making this AWESOME car increasingly rare and more desirable among car collectors of all ages and eras, and especially for enthusiasts of cars from this period. I remember how badly I wanted one of these back in the 80s after being lucky enough to catch a 20 minute ride in one back in 1987. That ride was SO impressive that I (to this day have as much respect and admiration for this car as the day I first got to ride in one!) After that I swore I would get one, but the $90k price tag kept me away for many years to come, Anyhow let me just say that to drive one is to ABSOLUTELY LOVE one, and For those of you who haven't yet driven one , but Love this car simply for its Raw, aggressive & stylish stance + its timeless good looks, I can assure you, that for you, the best is yet to come! Because they are simply one of the FUNNEST cars to drive EVER, and are like no other car I've ever experienced, to this date. And that's saying a lot, as I have had the privilege of driving and owning Lots of nice (High end ) cars, but all of them fall short in one way or another (IN MY OPINION) when compared to a 560 and to what this car delivers on! This one hasn't been driven much lately, but it still runs and drives great, And LOOKS AMAZING ! SEE THE PICS! It only has 151k miles on it which is not a lot for one of these cars that regularly go to 300k miles and well beyond if they are taken care of! "Mechanically Bulletproof" is often the way you see and hear of these gems being described because they are well known to last (seemingly) forever. As far as the mechanics and driveability go for this car, it starts Immediately on the first crank , and hums beautifully and has NO LEAKS, NO DRIPS, etc. This car was garage kept for most of its life, and it shows! The dash has no cracks, the interior is in overall GREAT Condition and definitely doesn't show its age at all! Even the carpet is beautiful, and has no stains tears or rips, and is still in great shape as well all around! And as for the Beautiful black leather seats, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, as they are truly remarkable! It's also worth mentioning that the sunroof doesn't move, but EVERYTHING else works perfectly such as ALL of the power windows work perfectly along with the power steering, the power door-locks, AND EVEN the MOTORIZED SEATBELT " ARMS" both work as new! This car is a Thrill to drive and almost as thrilling to stare at! I start it often and always starts up, and has been well taken care of over the last quarter century (Yes its 25 years old!) That being said, its Not a new car, and while the (VERY GOOD) condition of this car both Mechanically and physically are Well above average, it is still important that you remember that you are bidding on a "CLASSIC" Mercedes and that while its current state finds it to be a GOOD RUNNING CLASSIC that everything still works on, Things can happen and the car is sold without a warranty. And please Don't let my honesty discourage you in any way, I just feel the need to remind all bidders that this vehicle is NOT new, and hasn't been NEW for 25 years, so be reasonable and fair about this in your evaluation of this vehicle, and if you are, I can assure comfortably that this 560 SEC is in WELL ABOVE AVERAGE condition all around, in fact I would safely give it an 8 out of 10 for its overall condition, and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it daily if I needed to. However, I would plan on a basic maintenance schedule before doing so, just to treat the car right! Nothing big, just the basics, such as a new fuel filter, maybe some new plugs etc, and of course an oil change (the oil already looks good), i'm just saying to do this stuff more or less just to pamper her. Basically, since its not driven too much these days a fuel system cleaning might also be suggested if a long trip is needed, or if perfection is desired, again mostly just to pamper this lovely ride! Oh I almost forgot that the car also has a NEW battery and 4 brand new MATCHING TIRES! This Beautiful rare running classic is only going to go up in value, so don't miss your chance to get a NICE ONE (from the southwestern part of the country that's not been exposed to any harsh elements and is 100 % un-molested! ) This Benz has been well cared for and it certainly shows, I believe that it is sure to appreciate if it is given the same continued level of care and respect that it has been shown to date! Just to Reiterate once again, please understand that this is NOT a PERFECT or NEW Mercedes, just a Gorgeous example of the 560 species that still runs and drives and almost everything on the vehicle still works perfectly without issue. And if you want a nicer one then plan on spending $10 k or better, because this is still a VERY NICE CAR ALL AROUND! and will still turn heads ANYWHERE you drive her! AND FYI -not only are you 100% welcome to come out and view this vehicle in person (and TEST drive it!) ...You are ENCOURAGED to do so, and if you do, you will see just how great these cars are, and how much fun they are to drive! So please, if you are SERIOUS about the vehicle, then by all means, feel free to email me through EBAY for a pre bid or Pre purchase examination and test drive ....Just be serious! that's all! Don't miss this one! MORE EXTRA INFO: This all original Mercedes 560SEC coupe is a "MATCHING NUMBERS" car and it was regularly maintained by MB dealers or by certified MB techs for most of its life, and the condition shows it!. This car has never been in an accident (there are only MINOR blemishes to be found anywhere including a very small rust spot over the passengers rear wheel well...totally minor, making this an almost rust free vehicle! with a VERY SOLID body including all the body panels and all of the chrome trim and bumpers, as well as lower air dams they are in Great shape too! See PICS!.........And once again to re cap, The interior overall is also in Super condition, with supple leather seats with no tears or rips. The Burlwood is all there and is in good shape with only minor fading and can be totally replaced for about $200 if absolute perfection is desired, but like I said, All of the Burlwood pieces are still in place and in tact, so replacing it would be only for the truly finicky or to a collector who wants a prestine 560. Oh and the Trunk is likewise very clean, and has the original spare tire in there as well as the safety kit, and the TOOL ROLL. And FYI the engine compartment is also VERY CLEAN, showing again just how well the car has been cared for!.-----------------------------------MORE PICS ARE COMING SOON! So...stay tuned! . John Olson's book, "The MERCEDES Experience" notes that the W126 coupe is the rarest Mercedes produced during the golden years of the 80s, before Mercedes ceased to be over engineered and plastic replaced leather and metal in their line. Less than 2,000 of these cars were made per year. These rare coupes are starting to appreciate and will continue to appreciate in the future. This car just floats down the interstate with the most luxurious ride imaginable, better than today's cars. The 5.6 liter V8 provides ample power to do as you please in this car. Likewise, the body structure is extremely strong with no rattles and vibrations. The car has VERY nice glass and Perfect taillights without any cracks or staining (SEE PICS!) Very nice trim all around including flawless window glass .al around This car offers WITHOUT A DOUBT (IMO) the absolute most for the money of any used car on the market today. Especially when you consider the original $90k sticker price of this car, combined with the fact that this one still runs and drives great! You could drive it every day, and it will provide many, many years of pleasure as the years go by (While it continues to appreciate! = $$$! The engine and drivetrain are as tough as nails, and are almost always capable of going hundreds of thousands of miles without the need of any rebuild if maintained to MB specs. This car gets lots of attention, looks, and lots of "thumbs ups". Comes with original book, a large Mercedes cover intact along with the original tool roll etc. I HATE to sell this "dream" car, but I need the $$$ out of it to do other things right now, otherwise id NEVER sell this one!. If you have any questions, please ask prior to bidding, I have set a most reasonable reserve price, and have decided on a Buy it NOW at $6,900. I am only asking a fair price for this classic car and am willing to sell it early based on a reasonable offer, so if you've got a FAIR and REASONABLE offer in mind for my baby, then please feel free to make an offer on her! Thanks so much for looking, and if you are bidding, then I wish you GOOD LUCK! Thanks again, and watch for the PICS as they will go up sometime today!

Weekly Recap: Jaguar takes a leap with price cut, new strategy
Sat, Sep 5 2015Jaguar was one of the famous automotive props and plotlines in the now-iconic drama Mad Men. There's a scene where the show's protagonist, Don Draper, deftly undercuts an influential Jaguar dealer by indicating that get-me-in-the-door local radio spots would be an effective way to sell cars like the slinky E-Type. The British executives think this is folly – Draper knows they will – and his advertising strategy wins out over the dealer's approach to move the metal. Jaguar's not doing that, but half a century later in the real world the company is launching plans to make its cars more attainable to new and younger customers like Millenials. These aren't coupons, but this is a leap for Jaguar, which has long banked on sexy styling and its rich motorsports history to overshadow its past mechanical flaws. Put simply, Jaguar is addressing the reasons why people, especially the younger set, don't buy its cars. The 2017 XE will start at $35,895 when it launches next spring – which makes it an attractive buy for a successful, relatively young person. When it's time to move up, the redesigned XF will be more attainable, coming in at $52,895, which is $5,275 less than the 2015 model. The flagship XJ sedan and the enthusiast-oriented F-Type sports car will also get thousands of dollars worth of added standard features, and Jag is actively pitching them as a better value than their competitors. "The Jaguar brand is on the eve of a major transformation that will see it dramatically increase its presence in the United States luxury marketplace with an expanded lineup, pricing focused on the core of the luxury market, and an all-new ownership package with best-in-class coverage," Joe Eberhardt, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover North America, said in a statement. The brand's quality and reliability dings have also lurked in the back of buyers' minds for decades, though that's an outdated notion. Jaguar placed third in J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study in June and was the top-ranked luxury brand in J.D. Power's Customer Service Index in March. Not content, the company is rolling out an enhanced program called Jaguar EliteCare that launches on 2016 models. It offers a five-year, 60,000-mile limited warranty, the longest among its competitors, with free scheduled maintenance during that period. The plan also covers roadside assistance and connectivity features.
Race recap: 2016 Australian F1 Grand Prix a rowdy start to season
Mon, Mar 21 2016The three brief Formula 1 tests ahead of the current season belied how much had gone on since the last race in November: Infiniti subbed out for Tag Heuer, Renault is back, the all new Haas F1 team, a revamped Manor, three brand new drivers and two returning drivers, a raft of regulation changes among the newly tilled soil. The four engine manufacturers spent a combined 67 tokens among the 138 in the kitty, Renault using just seven of their 32. The only conclusive proof to come from the annual intermission was the otherworldly capability of Mercedes-AMG Petronas. The Silver Arrows didn't even try the super- and ultra-soft tires, focusing on reliability instead of speed. The result? They ran more than 19 race distances, obliterating the lap totals of every other team. There are certainly a few people who enjoyed the complicated new rolling-elimination qualifying format fast-tracked to approval just a few weeks ago. They were wildly outnumbered by those who thought it was awful, including the same team heads who voted for it. We'd probably have to go back to the debacle at the 2005 Indianapolis Grand Prix for an equivalent fiasco when Michelin pulled its teams over safety fears, leaving six cars out of 20 to qualify. In Australia, within 24 hours of the conclusion of qualifying, the new format had itself been eliminated. Nevertheless, qualifying also taught us what didn't happen over the winter: any other team progressing enough to outduel Mercedes. After admitting that he dropped off after winning the championship last year, then getting questioned in the press for some dubious off-season activities, Lewis Hamilton proved he can still turn it on when he wants to. The Brit smoked the Albert Park track in 1:23.837, more than three-tenths of a second ahead of teammate Nico Rosberg in second place. Ferrari did make strides during the off-season, but only enough to keep the same gap it had to Mercedes last year: Sebastian Vettel lined up third, a half-second behind Rosberg, teammate Kimi Raikkonen another four-tenths back in fourth place. Max Verstappen said Toro Rosso is the best of the rest, the Dutchman taking fifth place in front of Felipe Massa for Williams in sixth and Toro Rosso teammate Carlos Sainz in sixth. Daniel Ricciardo – who wasn't smiling after qualifying – kept Red Bull and its new "Tag Heuer" engines in the conversation with eighth on the grid.
One year since accident, most of Schumacher's sponsors still on board
Mon, Dec 29 2014It's been almost exactly a year now since Michael Schumacher suffered massive head trauma in a catastrophic skiing accident in Switzerland, and while details on his recovery have remained few and far between, we're sure his progress has been anything but easy. Meanwhile his sponsors have faced a difficult decision of their own: to continue supporting him financially despite getting nothing tangible in return, or cancel their contracts and suffer the blow to their public image as a result. According to Schumacher's longtime manager Sabine Kehm in speaking to news outlets like Italy's La Gazzetta dello Sport, most of the imperiled former F1 driver's personal sponsors have remained by his side. The encouraging news updates on what we reported back in August, that Mercedes-Benz and German investment firm Deutsche Vermogensberatung AG were sticking with the champ through the hard times. Other sponsors, including helmet manufacturer Schuberth and watchmaker Audemars Piguet, are also believed to still be on board. Not all of Schumi's sponsors have stuck around, though. German bottled water brand Rosbacher reportedly broke off its contract with Schumacher back in July. And more recent reports confirm that Gaydoul Group fashion labels Navyboot and Jet Set canceled their sponsorship deal earlier this month. These and other contracts made Schumacher one of the world's highest paid sports figures and the first billionaire athlete in the world. Even in retirement, he was still making more than most active F1 drivers. While we don't know just how much he's pulling in during his recovery, here's hoping that his continued sponsors can find a way to make their support worthwhile – and that the champ makes a full recovery in the near future.
