Gorgeous 2 Owner, Nicely Restored, CA Blue Plate SL!

     Here is a beautiful 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Roadster. This is a two owner Mercedes which has lived in California since about 1982 when its original owner retired and brought it with him from New York. It was originally purchased by way of the European Delivery Program in the fall of 1972 and shows its first US service at Raimondo Motors on 11-14-72. The car was just recently cosmetically restored to its current gorgeous condition. Don't miss your chance to own a truly spectacular small bumper 450sl...Bid Now!

-4.5L 200hp V8 Engine

-3 Speed Automatic Transmission

-Power Antenna

-Fog Lamps

-Automatic Climate Control

-Like New German Cloth Top

-Removable Hard Top

-Brand New Leather Interior

-Upgraded Alpine CD

-Upgraded Mercedes 14" Chrome Wheels

      The body on the car is in pristine condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint has been nicely redone and is finished in the gorgeous Mercedes color of Code 387 Blue Metallic and was just stripped down and redone about a year ago. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any life long California car should be. The car is riding on upgraded Mercedes 14" chrome Bundt wheels and has brand new tires! All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape. The soft top is new and in excellent condition, and has almost never been up. The hard top has good seals and the headliner is in awesome shape.

      The interior is in great shape all around. The supple blue leather seats are recently completely redone and all in very good condition, and look very nice with no rips or ware lines, which shows the quality of leather used in this car. The dash, door panels, and console are all in very good original shape. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. All dials and controls function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully functional. The sound system is also very nice with the upgraded Alpine Bluetooth CD player. Music is crisp and clear and not overwhelming. The sound system definitely adds to the driving experience of this roadster. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should.

      Mechanically, this SL runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. The V8 engine is surprisingly quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The car was always regularly serviced by Mercedes authorized dealers. The car has had thousand dollars and page after page of service in recent maintenance including all new brakes and rotors, all new engine, transmission, and sub-frame mounts, new fuel pumps, and its 75k tune up service completed. It's all ready to hit the road with the top dropped!

      One really special thing about this gorgeous automobile is the large amount of original paperwork and documentation that come with it. How often do you come across these cars with all the original manual, service book, warrantee book, and original instruction cards. This car has everything. I dare you Mercedes collectors to find another small bumper 450SL in this kind of condition with this kind of paperwork anywhere on the market. Its truly amazing.

      The car will include 2 key, tools, original spare tire, top removal tool, and the maintenance books and owners manuals.

      All in all, this is one of the cleanest and nicest SL's that I have had the privilege of being associated with. I truly feel it is one of the nicest ones on the market and I will put it next to any of the lower mileage examples and it will hold its own. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owner. This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. This is your chance to get a like new classic convertible for a fraction of the cost of its original price. The car has a clean California Title. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.

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).

Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.

Maybach officially discontinues all models for 2013

Tue, 14 Aug 2012

The word "Maybach" has joined the long list of synonyms for the word "kaput." Mercedes-Benz released the price list for the 2013 models of its super-luxury sedans, with the price column simply stating "Discontinued" for each one of them.
The 2012 models, should there be any left for 11th-hour buyers, maintain the increased MSRPs that Daimler slapped on them late last year after it was known the brand would be terminated next year. But you might still be able to wrangle that $100,000 rebate if you ask nicely, or in Russian, or have Rick Ross ask for you.
It shouldn't be too long before we see the ultimate version of the next generation S-Class, the S600 Pullman, that will replace Maybach. Intriguingly, it's said the Pullman will be offered with every S-Class engine, even the four-cylinder diesel.
