I bought this vehicle for the purpose of reselling it on Ebay. I have a high school friend who owns an auto dealership in Ky. He allows me to check out his trade ins and lease returns for this purpose. When I find one that I'm interested in, I have it checked out mechanically. If the vehicle needs only minor repair, I buy it and have the repairs done. This 500SL needed two of the hydraulic cylinders that operate the convertible top replaced, and a cleaning. This car runs and drives great. The engine(5.0 liter 8cyl.) and transmission(automatic with overdrive) performs as expected, with no unusual noises, leaks or smoking, from either, warm or cold. The car is equipped with high polished chrome wheels, am/fm stereo with cd, Ebony leather seats, power windows, power locks, power steering, power tilt and telescopic steering wheel, cruise control, six-way power seats, fog lights, keyless remote entry, dual power outside mirrors, driver's front airbag and power convertible top. The exterior is in great shape as well as the top, with the exception of a few small chips in the paint and a scuff on the passenger's fender(see pics). All of the afore mentioned equipment is in good working. The interior of this car is in great shape with no signs smoking, i.e. burnholes, discoloration or smell. The only exception to this is cracking of the simulated woodgrain on the door panels and center console and cracking of the leather on the top and sides of the seats where the seat belt openings are. The tires are @ 75%. If anyone is interested in the complete history of this car, Ebay provides a free history report on each listing. I have been doing business on Ebay for @ 8 years now, with great results. If you check my feedback, you will find that everyone that I have dealt with has had a hassle free experience, gotten a fair deal, and received an item that met or exceeded their expectations. Please feel free to ask questions or request additional pictures, as all requests will be answered HONESTLY AND PROMPTLY. If you would rather contact me via phone, my cell # is 502-648-2889. My name is John

New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC
Sat, 02 Feb 2013Last we heard, the Mercedes-Benz SLC had been put on indefinite hold, but now Car Magazine is reporting that the Porsche 911-fighting "Baby SLS" coupe could be on sale by 2015. Riding on a modified SLS AMG chassis, the smaller and lighter SLC could be priced in the sub-$100,000 price bracket.
We'd already heard that the new car would feature conventional doors (instead of SLS-like gullwing doors), but this report focuses on some of the possible powertrains Mercedes-Benz is likely to use. At launch, the SLC could offer a pair of V8-powered models - a 485-horsepower SLC and a 585-hp SLC S - both being powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. About a year after launch, a new V6 model could emerge giving the SLC an estimated 333 horsepower and its lowest price point.
It also sounds like the car's name hasn't been completely finalized as some people within Mercedes are favoring a return of the SLR name.
Dartz promises own 6x6 G-Class with golden shishas and a dining room
Mon, 25 Mar 2013So you didn't really think Dartz Motorz was going to let the limited-production, 544-horsepower Mercedes 6x6 G63 AMG go without a challenge, did you? Picking up the gauntlet as only Dartz can, the Russian dream-makers have come up with the Sahara G-eopard, supposedly a special request from a buyer to make one of the 'standard' six-wheelers "more opulent and insane."
That means the vehicle from the factory gets extended by about a foot (30 centimeters), coach doors in the rear, a "yacht floor" and air conditioning that runs on its own power source, Asanti 24-inch Gold Bullion wheels and a water dispenser with Russian diamonds, which the owner will need to fill the golden shishas (hookahs) in the portable smoking room. That's right, you heard the man: a portable smoking room. Where the occupants will retire when they're finished in the portable dining room. Of course.
Yes, it will even have leopard spotting painted onto its nano-coating, and so much more. You can check out the press release below from the source. Try not to be jealous.
Mercedes fits new C-Class with AMG kit
Sat, 28 Dec 2013It's only been a week and a half since Mercedes-Benz revealed the new C-Class, and it'll likely be a while yet before the replacement for the C63 AMG comes along. But if you want to see a preview of what it'll look like, look no further than the AMG aero kit that has just surfaced.
Expected to debut on the new C-Class at the fast-approaching Detroit Auto Show, the AMG Line Exterior Pack adds a new bumpers front and rear, side skirts, dual exhaust tips, mesh grille, aluminum window frames and - most importantly - 18-inch alloys packing upgraded brakes and fitted to a lowered sport suspension. All of which will help any C-Class look the part, even if the engine remains stock.
