Description

This is a rare opportunity. What you are about to read will be just as thrilling as the car itself. We are presenting to you at this auction a stunning 1995 Mercedes-Benz C36 AMG.  The inline 6 cylinder 4 valve engine is based on the C280, however, it has a 1.1 mm increase in bore diameter and a huge 18.9 mm increase in stroke length. The compression is also slightly stepped up to 10.5:1, while the electronics have been recalibrated and more aggressive camshafts have been fitted by the factory and has a free flowing exhaust. The result is 276 horsepower at 5750 rpm and 284 ft pound of torque at 4000 rpm. The engine has 82 more horsepower that the C280 and 36 more that the BMW M3.

The five-speed automatic transmission can be shifted manually through the gates is quite effective. The C36 uses 12.3 inch vented disc brakes up front and 10.9 inches in the rear. The brake engineering used on the heavier SL600 was used on the C36, adding great braking performance.The C36 can accelerate from 0 to 60 in just 5.9 seconds and can cover the quarter mile in 14.7 seconds. 

The engine runs execeptionally strong. The transmission shifts crisply, no lag, no slippage or harshness. The air conditioning blows ice cold. The vehicle has 4 new Bridgestone tires, as per Mercedes-Benz fitmant guide. The paint is factory original and is glossy and no signs of fading. Everything works and the vehicle has been serviced regularly since new. We have all maintenance records. The vehicle was originally purchased and serviced at Fletcher Jones Motor Cars in Newport Beach, in Southern California.

Ownership

The C36 belonged to an elderly gentleman in his 80's, who owned it since new and took care of it faithfully for more than 18 years. The mileage is correct, and was driven on a regular basis. Since he was not driving much these days, he decided it was time to get it in the hands of someone who would drive it more often and appreciate it. So that is the car we have today. No bodywork has been done on the car at all. The 54,600 miles, gives this Mercedes-Benz special value. It still feels new, smells new, the seats don't even look like they have been sat on. Turn the key and the engine starts right up. If you ever wanted a Mercedes, don't let this classic slip through your fingers.

Mercedes-Benz History

Mercedes-Benz found itself with not much competition in the sports sedan arenas, so they joined up with AMG who helped Mercedes produce new sport sedans in the early 1990's. The C36  was their first collaboration sold to the public. The car was more powerful than the BMW M3, which was very exciting. The C36 had a limited run in production. Mercedes-Benz and AMG produced 1018 C36's from 1995 to 1998, making it even more desireable to own.

LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.

Editors' Picks August 2021 | Honda Civic, Mercedes S-Class and more

Thu, Sep 9 2021

This month of Editors' Picks saw us award the honor to a couple of redesigned stalwarts like the Honda Civic and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Plus, a new crossover that splits the difference between the compact and subcompact class takes home the prize. On top of this, we'll introduce you to a new term: midcompact. We'll be using this to describe those in-between crossovers that are a tad too small to be considered compact, but too large to neatly fit into the subcompact class. For a few examples of these "midcompact" cars, we'll point you to the Ford Bronco Sport, Kia Seltos and VW Seltos. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in August that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Genesis G70 2022 Genesis G70 View 26 Photos Quick take: Genesis hits all the right buttons with its G70. It's attractive, fun to drive and can be had for a fair price. Enthusiasts should give it a shot before taking home one of its German competitors. Score: 8 What it competes with: Alfa Romeo Giulia, Lexus IS, Acura TLX, Infiniti Q50, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Cadillac CT4, Volvo S60 Pros: Sharp handler, stunning exterior looks, strong engines Cons: Average interior, loses manual option, small backseat and trunk From the editors: News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "I was already a big fan of the Genesis G70. It has brilliant handling, and the twin-turbo V6 is a beast. It's even a bargain against the competition. And Genesis just made it look a lot better. I wish they'd done a bit more to update the interior, but it's still not a bad cabin. Besides, you won't think too much about it when you're hustling down a fun back road." Features Editor James Riswick — "Yes, it is small, but in a sport sedan segment where "sport" means increasingly less, the G70 still delivers (in part because of that smallness).

AMG-powered Aston Martins still years away

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

After flirting for several years, Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin have finally tied the knot. Just don't expect to see any offspring to result from the union for at least three or four years.
This according to Auto Express, which spoke with Daimler chief Dr. Dieter Zetsche at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. AE reports that a new range of AMG-developed turbocharged V8s, transmissions and electrical components will make their way into the successors to the current V8 Vantage and DB9, but that these models are still a few years off.
Purists might balk at the thought of a Mercedes-powered Aston holding true to the brand's heritage. But while David Brown (for whom the DB range is named) may have steered clear of shoehorning in Detroit muscle into his cars, the entirety of the company's current range is powered by engines borrowing technology from Ford, and that arrangement seems to have worked well for Aston until now. And if you're still skeptical, look no further than Pagani and its AMG-sourced engines and you should have all the proof you need that the new relationship between Daimler and Aston could be a success.
