Your bidding on a very low mileage, clean Mercedes-Benz. Here is the story behind this car. I'm currently the second owner of this vehicle. The first person lived in New Jersey and leased it for three years and put approx. 10,000 miles on the car. In 2010 the car was involved in an accident that required the front quarter panel, bumper, and I believe the hood, to be replaced. The car was repaired with MB parts and was repaired very well. There are no signs that this car was ever in an accident. It runs perfectly with no squeaks or rattles. Now for the frame/structural issue listed on Carfax. Mercedes ran this car through the auction at which time the auction "reported" there was structural/frame damage. Before I purchased the car I had it inspected to see the extent of the damage. The inspection revealed that there wasn't any structural damage, but since it was reported that way Carfax can not remove that comment from their report. I felt comfortable with the car and it drove perfectly so I bought it. I've driven it for two years without a single mechanical issue. The only service that has been performed has been the annual maintenance items (performed at MB Dealer) and they updated a module in the radio for the MBRACE system. I put new Michelin tires on at 15,000 miles primarily because I didn't like the Continentals that came as OEM tires. The Michelin's are a much better riding tire. As I was preparing to sell the vehicle I didn't want to mislead anyone about the structure of this car so I had it inspected for a second time at a local auto repair center here in Arkansas. They also confirmed that there isn't any structural damage to this car. (I've attached a copy of their report along with the pictures) I've tried to contact Carfax to get this issue resolved, but there isn't anything they can do. So even though I have much respect for Carfax, I realize they can't inspect each car and if there is an issue reported in error they still have to include it on the report. That's the whole story behind the car. Since the car has this "record" I realize that I can't sell it for what it really should go for. I bought it at a discounted rate and I'm willing to sell it for a discounted rate as well. I'm also willing to buy the car back within one week if the buyer were to uncover any structural damage that existed prior to the sale. (Shipping would be the buyers responsibility) This CLK 550 had an MSRP over $75,000 new. It has every option available including the power trunk, A/C Seats, Windscreen, Nav, Permium 2 Pkg, and Bluetooth. I'm only asking $25,900 and will listen to any reasonable offer. If you have any concerns or questions please feel free to give me a call. This is an amazing car for the money. If you always wanted to own a Mercedes here is your chance without breaking the bank.

Thanks for looking,

Watch Jay Leno's Garage work on a Porsche 911 and others

Mon, Apr 18 2016

Jay Leno doesn't just own a bunch of cars – he restores them. (Or has people who restores them, at any rate.) For this latest video, he's showing us some of the projects he and his team are currently working on. The tour-de-garage starts with a 1953 Cunningham that had been in storage since '68, complete with a copper grille ready for plating and a 331 Hemi V8. Jay says that every one of the cars that Briggs Cunningham made is still on the road Â– but that's just one of the dozen or so projects Jay and company are working on. There's a suitably brown '71 Porsche 911 T in near-original condition having sat untouched parked underground in Beverly Hills for decades, and a '58 Chrysler Imperial convertible once driven by Clark Gable and Frank Sinatra, and now getting a brake upgrade. There's a Volvo 122 wagon that's been stripped down, media-blasted, and powder-coated, a thousand-horsepower Rolls-Royce, a 1960 Nash Metropolitan, a supercharged Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman, and a 1914 Detroit Electric. And those are just the four-wheeled automobiles. Over in the two-wheeler section there's a pair of Brough Superiors, a BSA, an Indian, and a custom racing sidecar that Jay's mechanic Bernard is working on. In short, Jay Leno's Garage isn't just one where vehicles are kept Â– it's one where vehicles are brought back to life.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.

Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla

Tue, Jul 12 2016

Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers Â– over 6,100 this year Â– from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.
