I'm selling my 1999 SL Mercedes convertible.  I got a ride in the car when it was brand new!  My best friend purchased the car new for his wife in 1999.  They sold me the car in 2004 or 05 with around 10,000 miles on it.  His wife hated it because it has such a sporty ride (AMG suspension and wheels).  It doesn't float, this car grabs the road and has amazing power.  I sold the car a couple years later to my lady friend in San Dimas, CA with approximately 14,000 miles on it.  She had her hip replaced last year, and it was difficult for her to get in and out of it, so I bought it back in March with approximately 34,000 miles on it.  I have enjoyed having it back, but I just bought a new car this week and need the room.

I have the original hard top, which is also in perfect condition and stored in my garage on a stand made to hold these hard tops.  I will include it in the sale as well.  I am happy to send photos of it to anyone that requests them.  Sorry, I couldn't post a photo of the car with the hard top, but it takes 2 people to put it on.  I also have the factory keys, 2 remote keys and a valet key.

The car has NEVER been smoked in, always garaged and hand washed.  It has also only had Mobile 1 synthetic oil it's whole life.

The brakes are fairly recent, as are the tires.  I recently had the mass air flow sensor replaced, and it has a new gas cap too.  The mechanic that worked on it said the engine is perfect as are the motor mounts.  My friend in California also had the AC compressor replaced.  The AC works awesome, as does everything on this car. 

There are no major cosmetic issues.  There is some normal wear and tear on a car of its age including: 2 small paint chips around the area where the gas goes in, there is a crack and a scrape to the underside of the front bumper - caused from pulling too close to those concrete things in a parking lot and then backing out.  I though about having that repaired, but frankly you cannot see it unless you're on the ground looking up.  The floor mats are fairly new, dark brown color so they show no dirt.  The leather is soft and supple, showing little if any sign of wear.  The car is in overall fabulous condition.  I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with it.  This would be awesome for someone back east, as the car has never been driven in snow or ice and not even purposely in the rain!  Although, I will admit it's been rained on twice that I know of.

I think I've covered everything, but if you have any questions, I'll be happy to assist in any way I can. 

As far as shipping goes, the buyer will be responsible and I will cooperate and assist moving company.  OR you can pick it up yourself if you like.  I would be happy to pick you up at the airport and you can drive it home.

Serious buyers, please.  Thank you.  Certified funds only.  PayPal deposit required.

Experience the New York Auto Show by drone

Fri, Apr 10 2015

The Autoblog team recently returned from wildly running around the Javits Center to cover all the news and debuts at the New York Auto Show. Sometimes, it's nice to take a more serene look at the exhibition floor, though, and the event's organizers are providing that exact opportunity by flying a drone through the hall. Combined with the down-tempo music, this clip feels like a form of automotive meditation. If you're going to miss the show in the Big Apple, the drone also provides a good overview at the exhibition floor, especially at the stands from Lexus, Buick, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and BMW. Plus, it's a fun way to see some vehicles from a completely different angle than they ever appear on the road.

SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head

Fri, 05 Jul 2013

In 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.

Mercedes' CEO says Google should study car use, not car building

Sat, Feb 14 2015

Google is rapidly throwing its massive weight into many facets of the auto business. Not only does the search behemoth want to take on Uber, offer car insurance quotes and run a specific version of Android on future infotainment systems, but the company is also at least toying with the idea of constructing its own completely autonomous vehicles. Such a powerful corporation entering the industry could frighten some automakers, but Daimler boss Dieter Zetsche isn't worried. The mustachioed executive doesn't believe that Google actually means to become an automaker but is instead just studying how people use cars. "Google and the likes want to get involved, I don't think in the first place to build vehicles," he told analysts, according to Reuters. Zetsche sees future collaboration with the technology giant in a quite nuanced way in that there are some things they can be partners on and other places where the two corporations might be competitors. One area where Zetsche potentially predicts an antagonistic relationship with Google regards data privacy, a concern is becoming a hot topic in the auto industry at the moment. Zetsche foresees the future of safety in Mercedes-Benz vehicles as protecting occupants not just physically but also safeguarding their personal information. "To be able to provide that, we have to keep control, and we can't do that when it is collected by Google," Zetsche said to Reuters.
