1986 Mercedes Benz 560sl Convertible V8 on 2040-cars
Sugar Land, Texas, United States
For sale is a 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster with 56k original miles. It is silver/grey paint with a matching removable hard top and a black soft top. This car is in excellent condition, especially considering that it is all original except for the radio head unit, which has been updated. The car runs and drives great and starts up perfectly every time. It has worked well as a daily driver for the last year and will continue to be reliable.
Some features include: Power windows Power brakes Power steering Power brakes Power antenna Leather seats Leather steering wheel Both hard and soft top Hard top wheeled stand and cover Removable rear seat Alloy wheels Clock Outside thermometer Fog lights Recent updates: New rear brakes New shocks New fuel distributor New fuel injectors New A/C system (including climate control unit) Transmission tune up Although the car is in excellent overall condition, there are a few imperfections which are relatively minor and detailed in the photos. The paint on the wheels is starting to peel from the aluminum. There is a tear along a seam of the passenger seat. There are some paint chips on the top of the car, near the trunk hinge. There is also one small crack in the dashboard. I purchased the car about a year ago at an auction for classic cars and it has been used as a daily driver since then. An AutoCheck report indicates that there were three previous owners. I've had a lot of fun in it, but I'm selling the car to replace it with a more fuel efficient vehicle. I'm constantly getting compliments from strangers who admire the car, and it always wins an award when I take it to car shows. It is evident by the cleanliness of the engine bay and the undercarriage that this car has lived an easy life and has been meticulously maintained. It performs and handles beautifully. As far as I know, this car has never been in an accident (there is no evidence of an accident). The sheet metal and frame are straight and rust free. The car is available for inspection by appointment. I have stated the condition of the car to the best of my ability but the vehicle is sold as is with no express or implied warranties or representations having been made by the seller to the buyer. Please feel free to e-mail me through eBay with any questions. I will not release the car until all payments have cleared. Buyer is responsible for shipping. |

World Car Of The Year down to its final four
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG officially teased in mini video
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The followup to the Mercedes-Benz S550, the S63 AMG, will sport a biturbocharged V8 that will likely turn out around 550 horsepower. The new engine is probably the 5.5-liter, biturbocharged V-8 that's been popping up in everything from the ML63 to the E63 AMG. The front fascia is more aggressive, which shouldn't come as a surprise, while a meaty exhaust setup can be found out back.
We managed to pick all that up from a short, 17-second video posted by MB. The original video that unveiled the S63 AMG has since been pulled down, making this YouTube clip the best look we now have at the new super sedan, at least until the Germans give up the goods for real.
Be sure to check out the video below, along with our original posting on the S63 AMG.
SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
