1992 Mercedes-benz 600sel- 1 Owner, Mint Condition, 75k Miles, California Car!!! on 2040-cars
Tarzana, California, United States
|
Hello everyone, up for sale is my absolutely stunning black on black 1992 Mercedes Benz 600SEL. My grandpa originally purchased the car for $140,000 from Simonson Mercedes-Benz Santa Monica in 1992 ($240,000 in today’s money) and still feels like a 6-digit car. He kept the car in his private car collection within his mansion in Beverly Hills nearly its entire life. Inside the garage was temperature and humidity controlled. He was the original owner, and gave me the car earlier this year as he is not able to drive anymore. I have hardly driven her since I took possession, she has been inside my garage most of the time, although I do take her out at least once a week for a short drive around the block. Car is an accident-free California car, absolutely zero rust anywhere on the car. This car includes every single option equipped for the 92 model year, she's fully loaded. The S-Class is Mercedes’s flagship model, and this was the first of their new model generation, the W140 (V140 for these long wheelbase models). Mercedes spent over a billion dollars on developing this car, and they had something to prove when they put this car out. It wasn’t designed to compete with BMW and Lexus, but rather with Rolls-Royce and Bentley. The V12 6.0 Liter engine was most powerful for the 92 model year, as emission restrictions that took place in 93 forced Mercedes to cut power. This version has a whopping 408 horsepower and 428 lb-ft. of torque propelling this beast from 0-60 in around 5.5 seconds. This same engine block is still used by some supercar manufacturers, such as Pagani, which has used tuned versions of the engine for its Zonda supercars. That being said, you hardly feel how fast you are going while driving this car. It provides the ultimate in comfort. The interior is simply cavernous, and provides massive comfort even with all the seats occupied. Rear passengers are in for a treat as they have power seats as well as seat warmer and coolers (which of course the front seats have as well, along with full lumbar support). This car was built during the time when Mercedes spent no expense in building their cars. Every single item on the vehicle is made by the finest materials. Even the new Mercedes of today can not compare. While most of Mercedes' cars today feel machine built and soulless, this vehicle truly feels hand built and assembled to the highest standards. The car runs absolutely flawlessly, a testament to how meticulously well kept and maintained this car has been. ALWAYS garaged, always taken in for service at least twice a year. Every problem area with this car has been looked at and taken care of. This includes the horrible eco-wiring harness that Mercedes were putting on their cars in the early 90’s. If this job isn’t done you’re looking at around a $6k job to get the entire wiring replaced. Also taken care of is the hydraulic suspension system. I just had the car serviced at Mr. MB Motors here in Tarzana, they went through the car and changed: -Oil and filter changed -Transmission fluid and filters changed -Vaccum hoses replaced Brakes and Brake Rotors Replaced This car still demands respect on the road. It is refined class, without being boisterous about it. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed when you see her. Everything is original, with the exception of the stereo system being upgraded completely (was a $3k job to get everything done properly) and Bluetooth integration has also been added for hands-free communication. Every single electronic still works on the car, which is a testament how no expense was spared on maintaining the vehicle. Registration has just been paid for until 2015, I also just got the car smogged (it of course passed easily). Take a look at the AutoCheck report to verify the car has had no accidents and the mileage is correct. Clean California title is on hand; everything is prepared for a caring new owner to take possession! Please feel free to ask me any questions about the car. I also have the car up for sale locally, so I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time. If you would like to come see the car before the auction ends, I will gladly help set up a viewing at the best convenience for both of us. Feel free to bring your mechanic to take a look at her as well. Sorry for the low-quality pics, I will try and post better ones later on. |

Daimler opens the door on Car2go Black with B-Class carsharing
Sun, Feb 9 2014Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler has finally decided to go to its proverbial mothership to further expand its Car2go carsharing service in Europe. The German automaker has long used its itty-bitty Smart Fortwo vehicles for the program, but now it's kicking off a pilot program called Car2go Black that will share Mercedes-Benz B-Class models in Berlin and Hamburg. Daimler will deploy 100 B-Class diesels in each German city. The company says the cars will be parked at so-called "black" parking spots and won't have to be returned to the same spot when the user is done. Daimler, who says the reservation platform is geared for smartphone use, is planning to expand the program to other European cities with existing Car2go service starting this spring. That's important, since once the system is up an running, you will be able to drive a Car2go Black vehicle from one town in the network to another and not need to bring it back. Car2go first started operations in Ulm, Germany, and made its North American debut in Austin, TX, in 2009. The service now has more than 600,000 members worldwide with access to about 10,000 Fortwos in 25 cities throughout Europe and North America. Car2go chief marketing officer J. Paul DeLong said last month that Car2go is the world's largest global carsharing company. You can check out Daimler's Car2go Black press release below. car2go black: Carsharing with the three-pointed star STUTTGART, Germany, Feb. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Daimler Mobility Services offers carsharing with Mercedes-Benz vehicles for the first time Pilot Phase with 200 B-Class vehicles starts in mid- February in Hamburg and Berlin One-way trips and open-ended trips available, within and even between different cities Smartphone-based rental procedure makes usage both easy and flexible Daimler Mobility Services will soon be offering carsharing with the three-pointed star. Under the "car2go black" brand, Daimler Mobility Services GmbH will pilot a fully automated carsharing system with Mercedes-Benz vehicles. The pilot phase will begin in mid-February in Hamburg and Berlin. In the initial pilot phase, select car2go members in those locations can use a network of 200 black B-Class models on short notice. The vehicles can be rented at dedicated reserved parking stations, and do not have to be returned to the same dedicated parking station that the vehicle rental originated from.
Mercedes-AMG considering turbo fours, hybrid sixes for future performance sedans
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Think of the letters AMG and you'll probably end up picturing a performance sedan with a big V8. Such has become, after all, the Mercedes turning division's calling card. But with the introduction of its 2.0-liter turbo four, AMG is working at turning that notion on its head.
The highly potent engine produces 355 horsepower and is presently installed in the A45 AMG hatchback, CLA45 AMG sedan and GLA45 AMG crossover, giving Benz's smallest family a full range of performance models. But that might not be the full extent of the high-strung four-pot's use.
Speaking with AMG boss Tobias Moers, Britain's What Car? magazine reports that Affalterbach is considering slotting the same engine into larger models, particularly performance sedans like the C-Class. As we recently reported, Mercedes is already preparing to up the power from the turbo V6 in the C400 to slot a C450 Sport in below the C63 AMG. The C450 is expected to offer around 367 horsepower where the CLA45 AMG et al pack 355, but the lighter weight of the four-cylinder engine would likely offset the truancy of those extra dozen horses. Of course such a prospect would be much further down the pipeline than the C450 Sport which is expected to arrive much sooner.
Mercedes teases a new Maybach concept convertible
Wed, Aug 9 2017Once again, Mercedes is taking a Vision concept to the Pebble Beach Concours this year. To start generating excitement, the company has released a teaser trailer for the car, and effectively no other information. But we think we've pieced together what the car is. Let's look at the video first. It shows a voluptuous blue body. It's all curves and clean lines inside and out. It also has an impressively prodigious prow with a proud three-pointed star at the front. The interior is all white with very little detail, and in addition to chrome, there are many copper trim pieces. There appear to be only two seats, too. Toward the end, we see a strip of copper trim on the outside as well, and just before the shot changes, we can see a bit of white interior that indicates this is a convertible. So we know this is an elegant, luxurious roadster. Is there anything else we can discern? Well, it seems Mercedes may have accidentally revealed the name of the car, or at least what it's based on. The video's file name includes the words "Maybach six." That happens to be the name of last year's Mercedes-Maybach coupe concept. On top of that, there's a striking resemblance between the long, flowing hoods of both cars. So it seems like a pretty safe bet that Mercedes will show the convertible version of that car, which was 18 feet long, and produced 738 horsepower from a quartet of electric motors. We'll find out if we're right when the car is revealed at Pebble Beach.
