1997 Mercedes-benz S600 2 Door Coupe. Motor Locked, For Parts. on 2040-cars
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
I am selling my 1997 Mercedes-Benz S600. It has a clear and clean title in my name. I bought it and the motor locked up. It had SEVERAL electronic and computer related issues. A previous mechanic had the electronics taken apart. I was able to get it running but it gave out lots of error codes from the various computer modules.
I was able to get it running but very poorly. Then, the motor seized. THIS IS A PARTS CAR AND NOTHING MORE! I will list what I know works and hopefully, someone will buy this for a parts car as getting parts from the dealer can be prohibitively expensive! Power windows, all 4 work. Driver side mirror works. Passenger worked until I bumped into it (see photos) Power seats work including motors that move seat back and forth when letting passengers into the back seat. Head rest power raising and lowering.. both sides. Steering column power. Trunk motor that raises and lowers trunk handle. The tires have about 75% tread however, they may be close to 10 years old. Please email me prior to bidding regarding any other specific items and I will answer to my best knowledge as to the condition of said item. THE CAR IS LOCATED IN ATLANTA, GA IN THE 30360 ZIP CODE AND IS AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING! Please read the following: I HAVE LISTED A COUPLE CARS BEFORE ON EBAY AND THE BIDDERS ALWAYS BACKED OUT! IF YOU HAVE NO FEEDBACK... DON'T BID! IF YOU NEED TO CHECK WITH YOUR MOMMY, DON'T BID! IF YOU WIN THE AUCTION AND THEN "THE BOSS WON'T ALLOW THE CAR" THEN GO AWAY! THIS IS A PARTS CAR AND THE RESERVE WILL BE VERY REASONABLE. I'm hoping to sell this car to a mechanic that can use it for parts. Thank you for looking. |

NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022
Thu, Mar 17 2016The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.
Daimler buying 12% stake in Beijing Auto
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Daimler and Beijing Automotive are officially going steady, with the German company set to take a 12-percent stake in the Chinese brand tomorrow. The two are already tied up in a Mercedes engine plant in Beijing, of which BAIC will increase its stake in, from 50 to 51 percent. Daimler will also get two seats on the Chinese company's board. BAIC may also gain the ability to produce cars on Mercedes-Benz platforms, according to Automotive News Europe.
The investment in BAIC comes ahead of that company's initial public offering, according to a report form Bloomberg, which indicates the deal will be inked tomorrow in the Chinese capital. According to the report, if the circumstances are right, BAIC may turn around and invest in the Germany company "soon."
It's not entirely clear just how much the 12-percent cut is costing Daimler, although it seems reasonable to assume that, as it's ahead of the IPO, the parent company of Mercedes is getting a bit of a bargain.
Clark Gable's 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing doesn't sell, then does sell for $1.85 million [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013How much extra value does previous celebrity ownership add to of a car? Really, there's no way to know until the car in question hits the auction block and bidders start raising their hands. In the case of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing you see above, the celebrity owner is none other than Clark Gable, who purchased it new. After Gable's death in 1960, the car changed hands a few times before settling with Charles Wood in 1975.
A high-dollar restoration was performed in 1989, and period accessories added by Gable himself were kept in place, including the Rudge knock-off wheels and Nardi steering wheel. Any Mercedes-Benz 300SL is worth a big chunk of money. In the case of Clark Gable's old Gullwing, the bidding stalled at $1.9 million here at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. As one of the 5000-series cars, this 300SL carried a reserve, and a bit of after-the-fact dealmaking saw the car change hands for $1.85 million.
