1985 Mercedes Benz SL380 Convertible with Soft top and Hard Top.

I bought this fantastic car for my wife to drive but she prefers the new car.
I just had it painted with Automotive Collision in Philadelphia at a cost of $8,500.
No evidence of rust was found on the car nor did it look like it was ever in a wreck, In fact the body was very straight,
only the clear of the original paint had faded from age.
They did a great job the car presents itself extremely well.  No orange peel, and very very glossy paint.
The interior is Original , detailed and shows very well, a couple of cracks on the driver seat were repaired.
The Soft top is very nice installed by the PO, two years ago. (He paid $1500)
The motor was just serviced, new oils filters etc. ($450)
The Brakes are new all around,  ($850)
The exhaust is new from headers back.  ($525)
Everything works on this car as it should including the Air Conditioning, except the odometer which is inoperable.
The car drives like a low mile car; the suspension is extremely tight, it does not shake or rattle even going through pot holes, it is truly a great driver.
You don't come around a great looking, and driving old Classic like this often.
No room in the garage so it must go.

Anyone interested please email with your phone number to make an appointment to look at the car.
I have a day job so please be patient.

The car starts right up all the time every time.  It idles smooth and at 650 rpm all the time. It sounds fantastic; and is a absolute joy to drive. The fantastic V8 in this car makes it surprisingly fast and agile!! Solid, confident, and gorgeous. This SL is a sporty classic that can be driven every day in comfort and Style.

This car is a people magnet. Everywhere you go, people will comment on the car. Male, female, young and old--Everyone loves it!!

Again every aspect of the car is in top shape.

Mercedes widens luxury sales gap on strong early CLA demand

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Mercedes-Benz CLA sales have been booming, with the Stuttgart-based manufacturer moving 2,300 of the sleek four-doors in its first week on sale. That is astonishing. Mercedes moved nearly twice as many CLAs (which start at $29,900) in one week than Jaguar, a brand that is on a very solid roll, sold in all of September. Ignoring the price differences between the Jag line and the CLA, that is still wildly impressive.
Mercedes has been pushing the CLA in television ads, using a shortened version of its Super Bowl spot, which starred William Dafoe, Usher and Kate Upton. "As the bargain entrance into the Mercedes portfolio, we weren't sure how luxury buyers would react," Kelly Blue Book auto analyst Alec Gutierrez told Bloomberg.
The CLA push was just part of MB's 6.7-percent increase in September sales, which were also helped along by a 17-percent jump in E-Class sales. That surge has allowed Mercedes to widen its 2013 sales lead over its rival, BMW, to 2,491 cars, according to Bloomberg. If CLA sales continue at this rate, we can only expect that margin to grow.

Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet is the ultimate safari machine

Mon, Feb 13 2017

Update: A Mercedes representative has informed us that the Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet will not be available in the United States. The text has been updated to reflect this. Vehicles such as the Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6 and G500 4x42 are all well and good, but they have one key issue: They simply aren't extravagant enough. Now we know that sounds insane because one of those vehicles has six driven wheels and the other is available in tennis-ball green. But they must not be decadent enough because Mercedes went a step further with the new Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet. While the most obvious change here is the soft-top, which will make this perfect for the wealthy to view wildlife on private safaris, we should start under the hood. The previous two monster G-Wagens made do with lowly V8s. This one features a twin-turbocharged V12 making 630 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque. Like its predecessors, this G650 uses a four-wheel-drive system with front, center, and rear differential locks, and sends power to solid portal axles front and rear. These axles move the differential and drive axles above the wheel centers for additional ground clearance. Inside, the rear passengers will be in the lap of luxury, even while the driver is navigating particularly harsh terrain. The soft top can be electrically raised or lowered, as can a glass partition to the driver's compartment. The two individual rear seats can be fully reclined, and leg rests deploy from below, taking full advantage of the truck's long wheelbase. This would likely make for an amazing vehicle for stargazing. The passengers also have access to folding tables, 10-inch LCD displays, and heated, cooled, and illuminated cup holders. Only 99 of these G650s will be built. Mercedes will show the SUV at this year's Geneva show, and it will hit the market this fall. Mercedes hasn't announced pricing, but expect it to be exorbitant. Not that matters for American buyers, since a Mercedes representative told us it won't be offered in the States. For buyers in countries where the G650 will be available, they will have the option of four interior color schemes, three soft-top colors, and four paint hues. Related Video:
