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.

BMW expects China to pass US as its top market in 2013

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

When you combine two billion citizens, 100 cities with more than a million inhabitants and an economy that's as unrestrained as Jim Cramer on an Adderall binge, China's explosive auto industry growth shouldn't be a huge surprise. Audi already lists the communist country as its largest market, while Mercedes-Benz is expecting it to be there in the next few years. Now, according to a report from Automotive News, BMW is expecting the People's Republic to overtake the United States in sales by the end of 2013.
We already discovered the extent that BMW is going to in establishing a dedicated Chinese stronghold, when we explored BMW's Shanghai-based DesignWorks studio ahead of April's Shanghai Motor Show. And while we argued that DesignWorks Shanghai hasn't really borne fruit, it isn't due to a lack of sales.
BMW China has seen a 16-percent jump in year-over-year sales, lead by a 28-percent gain in 5 Series sales. Part of BMW's growth strategy comes from an ever-expanding dealership network. Remember those 100 cities we mentioned with over one million people? According to Karsten Engel, CEO of BMW's Chinese operations, those 100-million-plus city dwellers don't have access to a premium dealership.

Aston Martin and Mercedes will share F1 safety car duties

Sun, Nov 22 2020

LONDON — Aston Martin is set to join Mercedes next season as a provider of Formula One's official safety cars, according to media reports on Tuesday. Racefans.net reported that Aston Martin would supply safety and medical cars at 12 of the 23 scheduled races in key markets, with the existing Mercedes cars used at the rest. It said Aston Martin's new DBX SUV, which uses a Mercedes-AMG V8 engine, would be used as a medical car. There was no official confirmation from Aston Martin or Mercedes. Sources indicated to Reuters that the report was accurate, however. Mercedes has been the official provider of the cars, which are deployed in the event of an incident or bad weather to keep the field lapping safely, since 1996 but that deal runs out at the end of this year. A shared supply would make sense for both carmakers, who already have close ties. Aston Martin's executive chairman Lawrence Stroll also owns the Racing Point team, who will race as Aston Martin from next season with four times world champion Sebastian Vettel arriving from Ferrari. Mercedes, a part of Daimler, is set to raise its stake in Aston Martin to up to 20% by 2023. Toto Wolff, principal of the Mercedes factory team, also has a private stake in Aston Martin.
