2012 Black Mercedes G550 Suv - Designo Rare Edition Select - Stunning !! on 2040-cars
Bentonville, Arkansas, United States
This 2012 G550 is the rarer Edition Select model - MSRP new $114,875
- at the Buy-It-Now price of $69,800 you are savings over $40K from new. This is a one owner – accident and damage free
G550 – sold and serviced at our Mercedes dealership. I have attached the
Mercedes spec sheet showing the features and options on this beautiful black
G550. The original owner traded her black 2012 G550 with us on
Saturday for a new Diamond White 2014 G550. She loved her G550 – however she
wanted a color change ! This 2012 G550 has had absolutely no major issues of any
kind in 77K miles – is ready to give the next owner years of trouble free
driving . The original owner is the mother of a noted professional athlete
- with a strong family heritage in professional sports – and she drives across
country to follow her son’s training and playing season. This G550 is in stunning condition inside and out. I have
provided 20 photos of this of the exterior and interior of this G550 in EXACT
TRADE IN CONDITION as we received it in on Saturday – including shots of each
exterior panel – again this is with no wash, no detailing, and no photo prep
whatsoever. I am a Mercedes AMG owner and 30 year Mercedes owner/enthusiast
– and I am meticulous when it comes to grading the condition of a great
Mercedes like this G550. I believe in 100% accuracy - my eyes are your eyes – and again
I am presenting this G550 in exact condition at traded in with no detailing
work of any kind. Mechanically I rate this G550 a 10 out of 10: The original
owner has been strictly diligent with scheduled Mercedes maintenance with us – and
our service department has been twice named by Mercedes in the Top 50
Best-Of-The-Best in the country – this is a rock solid G550 as proven by its service
history with us. Our service records show there have only been two very minor
mechanical issues in 77K miles: at 54K the front wiper motor and windshield washer
pump were replaced – and very early on at 6K miles the fuel tank sensor
required replaced. There have been absolutely no other mechanical issues of any
kind. This G550 will be delivered with Mercedes 80K recommended
service completed. Front brake pads and rotors were replaced recently at 67K
miles. Rear brake pads and rotors will be inspected and serviced as necessary
as part of the 80K service as well. Tires are recent Yokohama Geolanders – very
solid highway tire choice for the G-Wagen – and all tires show over 85%
remaining tread life and there no signs of any abnormal wear of any kind. Exterior I rate this G550 a 9.5 out of 10: The photos show this
is a stunning G550 that shines and glows like a new 2014. There are absolutely no
signs of any unreported accidents or any body work of any kind. There are no
dings or marks of any kind on any of the body panels. My 1/2 point deduction is
for fewer than 12 minor pin-head size rock chips on the front hood lip and
front air dam – normal road wear from a 2012 G550 – this G550 does not have any
major road rash on the front air dam or hood that some might expect at this
mileage. Interior I rate this G550 a 9.8 out of 10: The Designo leather interior
looks and feels as new. There are no rub or wear marks of any kind on the side
bolsters of the front seats, front seat cushions are unwrinkled and smooth. The
interior Piano Black wood is unmarked and no scratches of any kind. My 2/10
point deduction is realistic as compared to a fresh factory delivery - there
are no specific interior items. If you are not familiar with the new gen G-Wagen introduced
in 2012 – the new gen is 2012/2013/2014 – and has significant improvements in
interior refinement that include a re-sculpted dash and center console,
relocated COMAND infotainment center screen, and the driver the cluster screen was
upgraded to color and high resolution. This new gen G-Wagen starting 2012 also has upgraded safety
and driving systems to include: LED running lights, integral turn signals in
the side mirrors, the Mercedes Distronic adaptive radar cruise control was made
standard, the newest Mercedes blind spot alert was made standard, and starting
in 2012 both the Parktronic front/rear sensor parking system and the rear view
camera were upgraded to the newest Mercedes systems as well. Also for the new
gen starting in 2012 - electronic trailer stability control was added for owner’s
that plan to take advantage of the G-Wagen awesome towing capability. The G550 has the rock solid Mercedes twin-turbo 550 V8 – which
most Mercedes enthusiasts feel is the very best Mercedes production V8 ever –
and starting in 2012 the 550 V8 is now matched with the newest Mercedes 7G+
transmission. With the new 7G+ transmission the 550 twin turbo delivers over
382 hp and over 391 ft lbs of torque to the wheels – and the 550/7G+ power train
combination makes this new gen G-Wagen gives the smoothest and most impressive G-Wagen
driving experience ever ! With MSRP new of $114,875 our dealership will list this G550
locally for over $75,000. The Buy-It-Now price of $69,800 makes this G550 is a great
opportunity for the discerning Mercedes G-Wagen enthusiast – who wants to own
and drive a righteous and trouble free example of the newest generation
G-Wagen. The State of Arkansas does not charge sales tax to

Daimler, Geely mull China as production hub for hybrid powertrains
Sun, Nov 22 2020FRANKFURT — Daimler and Geely on Friday said China could emerge as a manufacturing and export hub for hybrid powertrains jointly developed for Volvo and Mercedes-Benz cars. Earlier this week, Daimler said it would cooperate with China's Geely to build next-generation combustion engines for use in hybrid vehicles. The engines will be produced in China as well as in Europe, and Geely and Daimler will cooperate in engineering, sourcing and production, the companies said in a joint press release. "The export of the engine from China is considered to be an option," the release further said. Mercedes-Benz aims for more than half of its passenger car sales to be comprised of plug-in hybrids or purely electric vehicles by 2030. Geely is ChinaÂ’s most internationally known automaker. It owns Volvo Cars and Lotus, almost half of Proton and 9.7% of Daimler. Through wholly owned company Polestar, it builds low-volume Polestar 1 hybrid performance cars in the western city of Chengdu and Polestar 2 volume sedans in Taizhou in the east. "The companies plan to develop a highly efficient modular engine," a spokesman for Daimler said, adding that it would be used in hybrid drivetrains and manufactured in Europe and China. The modular engine will be used in cars under different marques at Geely and Daimler, a person familiar with the matter said on condition of anonymity as the companies are still in the early stages of developing the engine. An Conghui, President of Geely Holding Group, President and CEO of Geely Auto Group said: “This project reflects the need for economies of scale and targeted research and development investment in clean and highly efficient powertrains and hybrid drive systems and their applications." Geely also plans to build a plant with annual manufacturing capacity of 30,000 premium EVs in the western city of Chongqing, run by a wholly owned, newly registered company, according to documents on its website. Geely and Polestar declined to comment. The plan comes as foreign automakers including BMW AG and Tesla expand EV production in the worldÂ’s biggest market, sourcing major EV components such as batteries locally and often even exporting a portion of the vehicles it builds.  Auto News Earnings/Financials Green Plants/Manufacturing Mercedes-Benz Volvo Green Automakers Future Vehicles Hybrid
Mercedes celebrates with World Championship edition SL63
Mon, Dec 1 2014Mercedes has plenty to be celebrating at the moment, having just won the Formula One World Championship in spectacular style – taking the constructors' title by a huge margin and the top two slots in the drivers' standings as well. It almost goes without saying that the German outfit would celebrate with a special edition, and that's just what we're looking at here. Presented at a special celebratory Stars & Cars event in Stuttgart in front of 50,000 jubilant fans, the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG World Championship 2014 Collector's Edition is based on Benz's twin-turbo V8-powered roadster but with some choice upgrades. Two versions will be offered: one in black with gold accents (displayed with the Silverstone circuit layout), the other in white with silver accents (and the Hockenheim map). One was designed by Lewis Hamilton, the other by Nico Rosberg. We'll let you sort out which one was done by which, but either way there'll only be 19 examples, each dedicated to a different grand prix circuit in the championship which Mercedes positively dominated – winning all but three, scoring eleven one-two finishes and landing on the podium at each and every one.
Rare Isdera Imperator 108i flexes its considerable muscles
Mon, 05 Aug 2013The Isdera Imperator 108i is a remarkably rare supercar from the late 80s and early 90s. Born of a Mercedes-Benz concept car, it's powered by a range of AMG-developed V8s, with five to six liters of displacement, depending on the engine. The example shown here, lapping the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit, features the most potent 6.0-liter V8 available. And rather than just being driven about on a perfectly clean racing line, it's freaking power sliding!
Yes, there's something eternally childlike about a wedge-shaped supercar from our formative years being flung about a Belgian racetrack. Adding to the appeal is the Imperator's stumpy, periscopic rear mirror, sticking out of the roof. Even after being out of production for 20 years, this is still a wild, wild car and we'd happily snap up the opportunity pilot one of the 36 Isderas that were built. Take a look below for the full video from Spa.
