2005 - Mercedes-benz G-class on 2040-cars
Green Mountain, North Carolina, United States
Mercedes Benz G55 AMG 2005 … Grand Edition The iconic G55 is a rugged military design, transformed into a luxury vehicle in a way only Mercedes Benz can do. To take it to an even higher level the hand-built AMG engine is Supercharged to the tune of 469 horsepower with an even more amazing 516 lbs-ft of stump pulling torque. These are supercar numbers in a four wheel drive SUV! It gets even better. This is number 248 of 500 specially built Grand Edition models with unique side badging and production plaque. Outstanding quality in a luxurious SUV, with supercar performance and one of only 500 specially built. This vehicle is truly hand-built by some of the most senior assembly line workers MB has trained according to The Star magazine. They went on to say this G55 AMG “is the quickest, fastest, loudest, most in-your-face and fun to drive SUV we have ever encountered”. (The Star Sept/October 2004). The original owner purchased this limited edition G55 in Beverly Hills, CA and never drove it more than about fifty miles from home. It was always garaged and has never seen snow. The second owner had it shipped to North Carolina and garaged it at all times but has never driven it in snow. There have been a couple of times when it was caught in rain but no snow or crud. The exterior condition is immaculate. The Alabaster White paint was rare for this year. The leather and wood trim in the interior is immaculate as well. The low miles and excellent care make this a wonderful opportunity for the right buyer. Issues? …… Not much really. The right rear window actuator is not working and there are two hair-like scratches on the right rear panel. The oil has been recently changed (Mobil 1 0w 40) and the Pirelli tires are great. A clean Carfax is available upon request. A very special SUV. Quality never goes out of style. Features Include: 5.4 Liter Supercharged V8 469 hp 516 lbs-ft Tourque 5 Speed Shiftable Automatic 0 to 60 in 5.6 seconds Four Wheel Drive Brush Guards and cages AMG Quad Exhaust, two each side 2 Silver Grand Edition Medallions 4 Stainless steel panels with illuminated AMG insignia Console plaque showing 248 of 500 built Optional oil dip stick Leather and wood, dash and console trim Designo leather seating 10 way front seating with multiple heating levels Memory seats with lumbar support Dual zone climate control Stability and traction control Cruise control Rear ventilation ducts Harmon/kardon premium stereo Tilt and telescoping steering wheel

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

Next Mercedes-Benz C-Class spotted in the snow
Mon, 11 Mar 2013The entry-level Mercedes-Benz C-Class has long felt like nothing more than, well, just that. Aside from the potent and delicious C63 AMG models, there hasn't been much to set the C-Class apart in the entry-level luxury/sport segment, leading to the model being regarded by many as "The Cheap Mercedes." No, it's certainly not a bad car, but for our money, it hasn't stood up particularly well to competitors like the BMW 3 Series or Audi A4.
So with the handsome new CLA-Class coming to round off the entry-level end for Mercedes-Benz, big plans are in store for the C-Class. We can see some evidence of that in this latest set of spy shots from our friends at CarPix. According to earlier reports, the new C-Class will be "far more dramatic" in the visuals department, and while the sedan's sculpting is still covered by camo, the much sleeker headlamp design we see here is, at the very least, a good start. The car's overall size is expected to grow a bit to further distance itself from the CLA, though thanks to lightweight materials, curb weight isn't expected to increase.
Just like the current model, the new C-Class is expected to use four- and six-cylinder engines, both gas- and diesel-fed, and overall power output for the global engine range should span from 120-ish on the low end to as much as 330. These new engines are expected to be mounted lower and farther rearward than before, offering better balance for both rear- and 4Matic all-wheel drive configurations. And as for that AMG? Rumors suggest a turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 will fall underhood.
