Selling a 2003 Mercedes SL500 230R Roadster. Seller is only the second owner and the car has 80,000. On average, car has seen 8,000 miles a year. The car is fully loaded minus Pano Roof, Distonic Cruise, and Voice Command. The vehicle has been meticulously maintained and is near perfect condition. Always garaged, always professionally detailed and professionally maintained. The suspension has three ride heights that can be selected from inside the car, the bottom setting has been reprogrammed to sit 2.5 inches lower but the mid and high ride height remain at factory settings. The only other modifications to the car are tasteful 20 inch rims with about 10,000 miles on them, smoked lights, tinted windows, and painted grills, vents and badges. The exhaust has had the rear resonators deleted, which is 100% smog legal. The exhaust is still very quiet at low rpms with a tasteful rumble at mid and upper rpm range.

The car is standard equipped with AMG, Sport, and Launch Packages. The vehicle has a stock BOSE sound system with integrated navigation and a six disc CD changer. The sound system also has speed sensitive volume adjust, 8 speakers and a subwoofer with an aux audio input. The interior is leather with wooden trim, heated/cooled/pulsating seats with 3 position memory and the driver said moves back and raises the steering wheel automatically for easy exit. For safety the car has front and side airbags, as well as a knee airbag for the driver and electronic parking sensors on both the front and back of the car. The car is also equipped with braktronic brake assist which preloads the brakes when you let off the gas quickly at high speeds. The brakes also "pulsate" in the rain to keep the braking surface dry for optimal braking. The brakes are also equipped with a electronic force distribution system that prevents brake steer under heavy breaking. At 60 mph you can put your hands on the roof and stand on the brakes, the car will not veer left or right, it will not dive, it will come to a slow and smooth stop. The suspension is electronically activated, hydraulic pneumatic actuators that assist in anti body roll (ABC). When equipped, the car will automatically adjust in turns to stiffen one side and soften the other so the car stays level in turns and the car will also automatically lower itself at speed to reduce drag. The transmission is a "learning" transition which will adjust its shift points to your driving style and it also has a "wet" and "sport" mode that has preset shift points. The car also has speed proportional power steering which stiffens as needed for optimal steering. Basically with 302 hp @ 5600 RPM and 339 ftlbs @ 2700 the car is comfortably fast and accommodates the drive in every facet. The hard top convertible is the cars finest selling point, even in the down position offering a considerable amount of trunk space.

Tastefully fast, aggressive and classy the SL series is truly a gentle mans sports car. I was fortunate enough to buy this from a gentleman who took terrific care of it, and I have followed in suit. Car has been professionally maintained and I have all receipts. All manufacturer recalls have been performed, and the car has only been worked on by Mercedes mechanics with Mercedes parts and fluids, to Mercedes specifications.

I will ship the car at buyers expense, and require a deposit within 72 hours of the close of the auction. Require pickup within ten days of the close of the auction. Will meet or deliver locally to San Diego/Los Angeles area.

2015 Mercedes C-Class order guide leaked

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

We may not have an official starting price for the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class, but as of right now, we can tell you about all the options for the eagerly anticipated new luxury sedan.
Benz Report has the entire order guide for the C-Class, with breakdowns from package pricing to how many different colors, wheel designs and lighting configurations will be available when the new model hits dealers later this year. As we mentioned in our initial review of the C-Class, there will be a pair of engine options, with the now familiar 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder available in both rear- and all-wheel-drive configurations and a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V6, which can be had in all-wheel drive, only.
From there, though, the available options are impressive. Much like it does on the current car, Mercedes is offering a pair of packages that sort of define the entire car. With the C300, buyers will have the choice of either a Sport or Luxury package in addition to the base trim, while C400 buyers are limited to the Sport model.

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class caught totally undisguised

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Based on the lightly camouflaged spy shots of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class we've seen lately, it hasn't taken a vivid imagination to picture what the next iteration of this big luxury sedan will look like. Even so, we now we have our first unobstructed views of the redesigned S-Class, codenamed W222, as it has just been caught out flaunting for some promo shots.
The first thing we notice about the new S-Class design is the disappearance of the last generation's flared wheel arches. Yet the new design adds even more character with bodyside creases similar to the CLS-Class and some elements reminiscent of 2007's F700 Concept, including the massive grille and vertical LED taillights. Other key details include a large panoramic roof and the narrow exhaust outlets, but the large LED-trimmed headlights and the aggressive front fascia are probably the biggest departure from the current design. With these spy shots, we also catch a blurry shot of the interior, but we've seen a practically uncovered look at the new S-Class' cabin back in January.
Overall, the next S-Class sports an expressive and premium new look, but as far as all-new designs go, it's quite conservative - a move no doubt fitting for these lean financial times.

Mercedes sketches new DTM C-Class

Mon, Aug 31 2015

Mercedes-AMG has two racecars on tap for 2016: the AMG GT3 for FIA GT3 sports car racing and the Mercedes-AMG DTM racer in the German Touring Car series. We have our first sketches of the latter, based on the 503-horsepower C63 Coupe, just lower, wider, and meaner. Naturally, a different motor goes in the DTM car, series regulations prohibiting turbocharging and dictating a 4.0-liter, naturally-aspirated V8 with 90-degree vee angle and a maximum of 500 hp. In 2017 the regulations will change to mandate 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged motors with about 600 hp in a Class One car. The switch will align DTM regs with Japan's Super GT and IMSA here in the US, so they can move between series' with minimal changes. That has the possibility of at least doubling the number of automakers on the grid – the German three and the Japanese three at once Â– and enabling a World Cup series held in the off-season between 2017 and 2018. Since 2000 Mercedes has won six Driver's Championships in DTM and nine Constructor's Championships, but it hasn't taken home a trophy since 2010. With six races to go in the season it has a team in second place, six points behind the leader. The press release below outlines the new aims. Mercedes-AMG DTM Team present first outlines of 2016 race car - Looking ahead to the 2016 season: How the new DTM car fielded by the Mercedes-AMG DTM Team will look - Ulrich Fritz: "Our aim with this vehicle is, of course, to continue the Mercedes-Benz success story in the DTM." Stuttgart, Aug 29, 2015 - The 2015 DTM season reaches its climax in September. But even before the final race weekends of the year, the Mercedes-AMG DTM Team are providing an insight into what lies ahead for the race series, revealing the first designs of the car that they will enter for the 2016 campaign. The 2016 DTM car to be deployed by the Mercedes-AMG DTM team follows on from successful predecessors that include the most successful car in DTM history Â– the AMG Mercedes C-Class with which Mercedes-AMG drivers secured 85 victories in 159 races. "The new Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe will again set new standards for driving dynamics and design. So, the vehicle provides the ideal basis for our DTM car," said Head of Mercedes-AMG DTM Ulrich Fritz. "I'm already looking forward to seeing the new Mercedes-AMG C 63 DTM compete in 2016.
