I have a rare classic 101k mile 1985 Mercedes Benz 500 SEL. This was the last year that the 500SEL was available in the United States and was the very top car of its time. It is almost identical to Michael Jackson's 1985 500SEl that just sold at auction for over a 100k I was told this car was used in movies but I have no documentation of that.

I purchased this car with plans to make it perfect but I need the garage space now and I'm forced to sell. This car will continue to appreciate in value as the years go by, low blue book for this car is 9,000 and high retail is almost 20k so it's a car worth keeping and making it right, and the best part is this car doesn't cost anymore for parts or repair than a domestic, and parts are readily available seeing this was a popular motor for mercedes. Oh and did I mention it's very fast, I accidentally gave it to much gas from the stop light and at about little over half throttle it poured smoke from the tires lol.

It does need some tlc to be perfect but it's a very nice driver and I always,and I mean always get compliments and thumbs up, because it's just something you don't see all the time.

Paint shines nice but could use a buff, as shown in the pics it's missing the little trim piece that has a little rust where it was. Rockers are solid, wells are solid, fenders are solid, no bondo anywhere, has a couple bubbles at rear door trim but very replaceable.

The interior is nice but is missing the rear interior door panel, all hardware is there just the panel is missing and the front seats have some cracks as shown in the pics.

The engine is bulletproof, it will fire right up without a problem, there are many write ups on how well built this 5.0 liter motor is and how it will outlast that car. It's been sitting in my garage and hasn't leaked any fluid at all from the motor or rear end, the only seepage I've seen is from the trans pan it will need a gasket soon but the trans is nice and strong on it, like I said I was driving it once a week.

Here's the bad 2 weekends ago I took it to the store and the rear driver brake hose started leaking, the parts 11.00 online but I've never worked on brake lines or hoses before and don't really want to chance it. As of now car still stops the brake just goes to the floor.

It does need some tlc to be absolutely perfect but it's a solid car and does look great, if it didn't I don't think it would get as much attention as it does everywhere I go.

low book value is 9,000 and high is close to 20,000 for this car. Selling to purchase a BMW 740il

Promo video shows what the Mercedes G500 4x4 can do

Tue, Feb 24 2015

The Mercedes-Benz G500 4x42 is still nominally a show car, but it they're not treating it like one. They've provided their usual video follow-up to the press release and still photo launch, and they've made enough of the beasts to hold a press launch in Granada, Spain. It's even got AMG's brand new twin-turbo V8 engine in it, one that gets the 6,000-pound truck from 0-62 miles per hour in about 6.5 seconds. The only thing it needs to be a going concern is license plates; we guarantee it's not waiting on customers. Autocar could be jumping the gun, but they say it's expected to go on sale later this year for a price in excess of 200,000 pounds ($308,770 US) in the UK. Above is the promotional video, below is footage from GT Spirit from the press launch – notice how the G63 AMG in the background looks, shall we say, pedestrian. We're going to be crawling all over this truck at the Geneva Motor Show, and if we can find the keys, we might even drive it over the other show cars and out the door... or the nearest wall.

Maybach officially discontinues all models for 2013

Tue, 14 Aug 2012

The word "Maybach" has joined the long list of synonyms for the word "kaput." Mercedes-Benz released the price list for the 2013 models of its super-luxury sedans, with the price column simply stating "Discontinued" for each one of them.
The 2012 models, should there be any left for 11th-hour buyers, maintain the increased MSRPs that Daimler slapped on them late last year after it was known the brand would be terminated next year. But you might still be able to wrangle that $100,000 rebate if you ask nicely, or in Russian, or have Rick Ross ask for you.
It shouldn't be too long before we see the ultimate version of the next generation S-Class, the S600 Pullman, that will replace Maybach. Intriguingly, it's said the Pullman will be offered with every S-Class engine, even the four-cylinder diesel.
