Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Up for sale is my 1990 560sec. My wife and I are having a child, so unfortunately I am forced to sell this beautiful masterpiece of a car for something that can accommodate a baby. I searched for two years for a 560sec that was up to my requirements in terms of overall condition, and I bought this one just over one year ago. I had no intention of ever selling it, so I have put an impressive amount of time and money into the car.

Here's a brief history of the vehicle: I am technically the third owner; however, the first owner sold it shortly after purchasing it new, which if I recall correctly was in the year 1991. The second owner was an elderly, wealthy lady living in Virginia Beach. She kept this car in the garage at all times, and naturally she followed all the routine maintenance. I didn't think twice about buying it from her, for I had never seen a 560sec that was in such good condition. Since owning the vehicle, I have replaced the following parts, many of which did not necessarily need replacing buy which I replaced anyway simply to fulfill my tendency to be extremely particular about my cars. Nearly all of these parts are original equipment, meaning they are the same manufacturer of parts that Mercedes uses: 

- Radiator
- Fan clutch
- Fan blade
- A/C charge and inspection
- Monovalve
- Hydraulic accumulators
- Bilstein shock absorbers
- Voltage regulator
- Fuel filter
- Transmission oil filter, seal and transmission oil change
- Hydraulic fluid
- Rear brake discs
- Brake pads
- PCV hose
- Intake hoses
- Spark plugs
- Spark plug wires
- Distributor cap
- Distributor rotor
- Rear differential fluid
- Professional replacement of roof lining
- Hood pad

In addition to these changes, I have also been extremely particular about changing the oil, oil filter, and air filter. I have also spent a great deal of time buffing out paint imperfections, though there still remain a few scratches and there is one small dent/ding on the front quarter panel. I recently bought a new genuine Mercedes "560sec" badge, but I have not had time to replace it yet (the "5" on the "560sec" badge is chipped, which is why I bought a new one.

The antenna on this car does not go up or down, a very common issue with this car. A replacement is not expensive. Also, there is some delamination on the rear glass which gives the glass an icy appearance on the bottom corners, which are also a very common problem with this car, so much so that nearly every 560sec or 560sel that I have seen has this issue. From what I can tell, all of the seals are in top shape, which is naturally attributed to the fact that this car has been garaged at all times. I also have a car cover that I use when I am forced to park it outdoors. To keep the carpets in like new condition, I place towels on the floor. There are no signs of rust that I am aware of, which is extremely rare for this body style being that they are notoriously prone to rust. I recommend changing the front brake discs. I just received some in the mail and I will include them with the purchase. The tires are good for awhile longer, though you may want to consider changing them. Good tires for this car are not expensive.

You will not find a 560sec that has been loved as much as this one, nor will you likely find one in this good of condition. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

New Forza 6 car pack adds 1,000 hp German race truck

Tue, Jul 12 2016

Today, Forza Motorsport 6 continues its pattern of monthly updates with seven new cars in the Turn 10 Select Car Pack. The diverse group of cars spans nearly 60 years of motoring history with a combination three street and four track cars from Germany, Italy, the UK, and the UK. Turn 10 Studios will also release an update that brings back Monza, Catalunya, and the Circuit of the Americas tracks. The seven vehicles in the pack are the 1957 BMW Isetta 300 Export, the 1969 Ford Brawner Hawk III, the 1980 Fiat 124 Sport Spider, the 2014 Jaguar #14 Emil Frey GT3 Jaguar XK, the 2014 Chevrolet #4 ROAL Motorsport RML Cruze TC1 WTCC, the 2015 Mercedes-Benz #24 Tankpool24 Racing Truck, and the 2015 McLaren 570S Coupe. The BMW, Fiat, and McLaren all represent iconic vehicles for their respective brands. While the BMW may not be fast and the McLaren is the baby of the brand, their importance can't be overstated. It also can't be a coincidence that Fiat is releasing an all-new 124 Spider, now based on the Mazda MX-5 Miata, just as Forza is adding in a version of the original. The racecars share a similar iconic nature. The Ford Brawner Hawk III won the 1969 Indianapolis 500 with Mario Andretti at the wheel. The team behind the GT3 XK has ties with Jaguar going back decades. The Chevrolet Cruze is one of the most successful cars in the history of the World Touring Car Championship. Finally, the Mercedes-Benz racing truck was added because the developers saw them in real life and thought racing these big trucks would be cool. The car pack is available to for $7 total, or players can purchase each car individually. Related video: Related Gallery Forza 6 Car Pack Toys/Games BMW Fiat Mercedes-Benz forza car pack
