This is a two owner, original Mercedes 560SEC coupe. Has been maintained by MB dealer since new. Complete maintenance and repair records since new. Car has been owned since 1994 by current owner, who is an MBCA enthusiast with a collection of classic and antique Mercedes. This car has never been in an accident except for a couple of door dings and a 2MPH bump on the rear bumper which caused no damage and was repainted at the MB dealer. Car is in almost perfect mechanical condition. Only things needing attention are the cruise control amplifier (common issue) and reconnection of the sun visor mirror lights. Car has an updated Becker CD player radio, but original radio is included in working condition. Also, there are two sets of OEM wheels for summer and winter tires. The interior is also in outstanding condition, with supple leather seats with no tears or rips. Trunk is likewise very clean, with the only issue being where cleaner was leaked into the passenger wheel well depression. The carpet covering can be replaced by any reputable upholsterer on this part for about $150.00 if perfection is sought. John Olson's book, The SL 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, and the 1990 and 1991 models are the last and most sought of this model. 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 European glass halogen lights mounted, but the original US spec lights will also go with the car. This car offers perhaps the most for the money of any used car on the market today. You can drive it every day, and it will provide many, many years of pleasure. The engine and drivetrain is bulletproof, capable of going hundres of thousands of miles without the need of any rebuild if maintained to MB specs. This car gets lots of attention and thumbs up. The mechanics at the Mercedes dealership will ask you if you want to sell it when you drive in for scheduled oil changes or service. This car can win prizes in local Mercedes shows with all records and original books intact along with tool roll etc. I am selling it only to make room for other vehicles on my bucket list. BTW, this is my wife's favorite car. If you have any questions, I can provide the number of our master MB mechanic, known in the DC area as the Car Whisperer, who can vouch for the conditiion of this car. I am also happy to answer any questions for you--just ring me at 703.799.7465. The reserve is most reasonable. I am only asking a fair price for this classic car and am willing to sell it early based on a reasonable offer. The colors of desert taupe with a creme beige interior are gorgeous in any climate. Additional pictures are available on request. I will assist with pick up of vehicle by commercial shippers.

2015 Australian Grand Prix all about grooves and trenches [spoilers]
Sun, Mar 15 2015We can't remember the last time 90 percent of the action in Formula One had nothing to do with cars setting timed laps. Yet that's was the situation at the Australian Grand Prix, continuing the antics from a scarcely believable off-season with blow-ups, driver and team absences, a lawsuit, and a clear need for some teams to get down and give us 50 pit stops. Nothing much has changed from a regulation standpoint, and at the front of the field nothing has changed at all. Lewis Hamilton in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas claimed the first position on the grid like someone put a sign on it that read, "Reserved for Mr. Hamilton;" teammate Nico Rosberg was 0.6 behind in second, Felipe Massa in the Williams was 1.4 seconds back in third. Sebastian Vettel proved that Ferrari didn't do another Groundhog Day routine this off-season, slotting into fourth. His teammate Kimi Raikkonen was not even four-hundredths of a second behind, ahead of Valtteri Bottas in the second Williams, Daniel Ricciardo in the first Infiniti Red Bull Racing, and rookie Carlos Sainz, Jr. in the first Toro Rosso. Lotus, now powered by Mercedes, got both cars into the top ten with Romain Grosjean in ninth, Pastor Maldonado in the final spot. However, even though the regulations are almost all carryover, in actual fact, everything has changed this year. Mercedes is even faster. Renault is even worse. Ferrari and Lotus are a lot better. Toro Rosso is looking like anything but a junior team. And McLaren is – well, let's not even get into that yet. Furthermore, this weekend was shambles: 15 cars started the race, the smallest naturally-occurring grid since 1963. Manor couldn't get its cars ready before qualifying. Bottas had to pull out after qualifying when he tore a disc in his back and couldn't pass the medical clearance tests. The gearbox in Daniil Kvyat's Red Bull gave out on the lap from the pit to the grid, and to give misery some company, the Honda in Kevin Magnussen's McLaren blew up on the same lap. When the lights went out, Hamilton ran away and was more than a second ahead of his teammate at the end of Lap 1. The advantage disappeared, though, because behind him, at the first corner, we got our first pile-up. As Raikkonen drove around the outside of Vettel at the right-hand Turn 1 it looked like Vettel, going over the kerbing, hopped to his left and bounced into Raikkonen.

Mercedes to market Tesla-powered 2014 B-Class EV in U.S.
Thu, 05 Jul 2012Looks like another Tesla Motors investor will be looking to cash in on their connection. Autoweek reports Mercedes-Benz will offer their B-Class in the U.S. with Tesla propulsion.
The magazine says their source at the German automaker confirms plans for a B-Class electric-only vehicle. While Tesla already provides battery packs for the battery-powered Smart ForTwo, the B-Class EV will reportedly have Tesla batteries, motor and other components. U.S. residents should be able to procure one sometime in 2014.
The same Mercedes source says plans for a hybrid B-Class have been postponed for now. Adding a range-extending, gasoline-powered engine to an electric vehicle would put the car into a different class for which rebates and incentives aren't as favorable in the States.
