Please read BEFORE bidding:
Due to 3, YES 3, "winning" bidders NOT paying for this car and 2 other cars I sold on here in the last month, I now REQUIRE a $500 non-refundable deposit via paypal immediately following the auction's end. I'm sorry about this, but I have had to re-list this car and 2 others, which not only costs MORE money, but WASTES more time. It's become a joke, but not in a funny way! If you don't understand that you are BUYING a car online, and this is not a "game" but rather an auction that you CHOSE to participate in, then PLEASE DO NOT BID!!! If you have less than 10 feedback, you MUST contact me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid. I don't want any excuses about how you're "out of the Country on business" or "you are just so busy at work you can't get away to pick it up".... that's pure BS! If you win the car, you have committed to BUY IT. Understand??? Make sure your cash is liquid and available BEFORE bidding. If you win, you have 3 business days to pay me in full. NO exceptions. I prefer bank wire or verifiable cashiers check (car will not leave until check CLEARS bank which can take UP TO 21 days (cleared funds, not just showing "funds available" at my bank...that is a courtesy the FED requires banks to do within so many days of depositing a check, but that doesn't guarantee funds are good. Scammers know this...my father-in-law was scammed twice in a week but luckily didn't fall for it...nor will I), )...Again, wire is preferred. Of course if you pick the car up in person, cash is always accepted. You can arrange to have the car picked up at a later date, but it MUST be paid for by the Wednesday afternoon after the auction ends. PERIOD. If you cannot comply with what you have just read, then PLEASE do not bid. Thank You to those of you that do understand the "apparently difficult concept" of eBay...you bid...you win...you pay. It's a pretty simple concept, but 3 different people out of 4 auctions I had in the last month didn't understand that concept and have wasted my time, my money, and I'm over it. Now, lets get on to the fun stuff...my beautiful car: You're looking at my 1989 Mercedes Benz 560 SL, the flagship for Mercedes and a true icon of a car. This is the last year for the classic styling, and quite collectible. This car is still wearing it's original and rare black paint and it looks amazing to this day. The car has always been garaged and it shows both inside and out. The paint is super shiny and deep (see reflection photo...amazing for 24 year old paint!). Southern car...no rust. The car is built like a tank and the doors close with a solid heavy thunk. The exterior of the car looks great with only a few minor dings in a few spots (common on any car that's this old, and especially on a black car). They do not detract from the beauty of this class automobile though, and barely show up in the pics. Carfax shows a minor accident in 2002. I did not own the car back then. I cannot see any evidence of this, and the paintwork matches beautifully if indeed it was repaired. There is no evidence or overspray to suggest that the car was repainted, but I am not a professional. There is no rust and again, I'm assuming if there was an accident that it was minor. The black leather interior (not the cheaper MB Tex) is still in nice shape. The drivers seat has a little wear on the outer bolster from getting in and out, and a small cut on the seat bottom. Both easily repaired by any trim shop if they bother you, and at not a great cost. Carpets are in good condition. The wood trim as in most of these older SL's is cracking in a few places (center console, above glove box) but readily available and easy to replace. The dash pad itself looks amazing with no cracking at all...a rare sight. The black cloth soft top is in useable condition, but it is showing it's age and should be replaced down the road. It has some wear and tear, but again is still useable. Hardtop is nice with no major weird stains on the inner headliner. A hardtop stand on wheels is also included in the sale, used to safely store the hardtop when it's not on the vehicle. All mechanical systems are in fine working order. Engine runs well. Brakes and tires are good. A/C blows cold. Power windows and locks work as they should. Has it's original Becker stereo/cassette player and factory First Aid Kit in the trunk. The speedometer works fine but the odometer quite working a little while back. Not many miles have been put on the car since it broke, but it will be sold with an "exempt" title due to it's age. The car has always been maintained and garaged, and is in fine condition as you can see in the pictures. The car needs nothing but to be enjoyed by it's new owners. All books and both sets of keys come with the car. I am a private collector who has been asked by my wife to "thin the herd". I had 15 exotics and muscle/collector cars...am down to 11...and she wants me down to 6. So, this one must go to new home. I have it stored in my buddies garage because we just detailed it and I only have room to park it outside and exposed to the elements at my house (yet ANOTHER reason why my wife wants me to sell a lot of my cars)...I took these pics in his yard before we put it away in his garage. Free and clear title, in my name, in my possession. All sales are final, so ask any and all questions before bidding. Please make sure you have your finances ready before bidding, as full payment is required within 5 business days from the end of the auction. If you don't understand that, please do not bid. Make sure you have permission from your spouse, boss, priest, whomever BEFORE bidding. I do not have time for games and BS. This is a nice car that won't break the bank to own. I'm listing this with NO RESERVE...last bid wins! Bid high and bid often. Thanks for looking and good luck! |

Mercedes-Benz may create electric-only brand
Fri, Jun 24 2016Daimler's Mercedes-Benz division may follow in fellow German automaker BMW's footsteps by launching its own separate brand for electric vehicles, Hybrid Cars says, citing German publication Handelsblatt, which quoted people familiar with the process. Daimler's board may make the decision to go ahead with the plan as early next month. And the brand may officially be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September. Unlike BMW and the i brand, Mercedes would use its existing factories to produce the newly-branded vehicles instead of operating out of a separate one as the i brand does. The first vehicle under the brand is likely to be an SUV model based on the Mercedes-Benz GLC crossover vehicle and would start sales next year. The product line would be broadened further in 2020. Daimler declined to comment, according to Handelsblatt. Mercedes-Benz and BMW wouldn't be the only two German automakers with plans for more electric vehicle sales. Volkswagen has a plan to unleash as many as 20 electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids to the public by 2020, including the Phaeton and the Audi A8. On that note, reports surfaced last month that VW may build its own "Gigafacory" as it prepares to widen its plug-in vehicle push and bring down their costs. As for US sales, Smart sold 313 ForTwo Electric vehicles, down 43 percent from a year earlier. Meanwhile, BMW's i sales in the US fell 40 percent from a year earlier to 2,723. Currently, Mercedes-Benz's only two electric vehicles are the Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive and the Smart ForTwo Electric two-seat vehicle. In the meantime, take a look at Autoblog's First Drive of the B-Class Electric. Related Video: News Source: Handelsblatt, Hybrid Cars Green Mercedes-Benz smart Electric
Sunday Drive: And now for something completely different
Sun, Dec 17 2017This past week played host to a wide assortment of automotive news, highlighted by our first drive of the 2018 Volvo XC40. The Swedish crossover is targeted at young, successful Millennials, but it offers cool styling, fun dynamics, and all of today's must-have technology, so we think it ought to appeal to a much wider swath of the automotive marketplace. From there we answer the question, "What are hard on the outside and soft on the inside?" as we take a look at the next Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV. We expect the German automaker's flagship luxury SUV to remain boxy on the outside, but the interior is going to be soft, supple, and luxurious. And then there's the Honda Clarity Plug-in Hybrid, which starts at starts at $34,290 and boasts 212 total system horsepower, 232 pound-feet of torque, 47 miles of electric driving range, and a total range of 340 miles. EPA rates it at 110 MPGe in EV mode, and 44 city/40 highway/42 combined overall. We compare it to other plug-ins like the Chevy Volt and Toyota Prius Prime. And finally we have some more spy photos of the 2019 Ram 1500. It doesn't have a traditional crosshair grille, but it's got plenty of chrome and an attractive upright stance that's sure to tempt future truck buyers looking for some sophistication to go with their work gloves. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week to see all the automotive news that's fit to print. 2018 Volvo XC40 First Drive Review | The Masspirational crossover Mercedes-Benz G-Class gets the luxe, high-tech treatment 2018 Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid Review | It's what's on the inside that counts 2019 Ram 1500 shows chrome grille and more production parts Green Honda Mercedes-Benz RAM Volvo Technology Truck Crossover SUV Luxury Performance Sedan volvo xc40 sunday drive
Mercedes-Maybach GLS Edition 100 layers on the opulence
Wed, Sep 29 2021The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class Edition 100 was revealed yesterday, but it wasn’t the only new Maybach product to come out. No, in addition to the S-Class, Mercedes took the wraps off the Mercedes-Maybach GLS Edition 100. We didnÂ’t have the details for the SUV version right away, but we have them now. None of those details are all that surprising, though. The GLS Edition 100 is built to celebrate the same Maybach centennial milestone as the S-Class, and its appearance is essentially a copycat of the sedan. The one key difference versus the sedan is the number of cylinders under the hood. Mercedes puts its V12 in the S-Class, while the GLS soldiers on with the V8. Let the tears made of money flow for the lack of the additional four cylinders. At least everything else is largely equivalent. The GLS Edition 100 gets painted in the same Designo Crystal White and Silver Grey Pearl two-tone paint scheme. YouÂ’ll find the “Edition 100” Maybach logo on the D-pillar of the GLS. Plus, the logo makes another appearance on the stunning forged grey wheels. The interior of the GLS Edition 100 is also similar to the S-Class, in that itÂ’s finished with a special leather design that is also two-tone in nature with Crystal White and Silver Grey Pearl hides. Everybody who buys one of these Edition 100 cars gets a unique branded car cover and a special case meant to store keys and the carÂ’s paperwork. Pricing isnÂ’t detailed, but Mercedes says Edition 100 cars will be at dealers at the start of 2022 — orders will be taken in the fourth quarter of this year. Related video:
