You are looking at a well kept, great looking sporty luxury convertible. Very hot car in wonderful condition. Because it's a convertible 5.6L V8 engine, it has nice performance to it as well, drives great. The smoked silver exterior color with light cream leather interior combination gives the car a certain kind of unique classy look with the polished chrome wheels. The car comes with a dark brown soft top which was just replaced. (for no real reason, I wanted it to look perfect)
The car has been garage kept, never-smoked-in before beauty that looks great and smells clean.
The engine is very strong and runs extra smooth with only 97,000 miles. The transmission has the Mercedes mark on it as well and shifts like on a new car, no skips or slips on shifts. The suspension feels very nimble and comfortable at the same time. This car as been very well maintained. I am the 2nd driver, 3rd owner. The last 2 owners are famous guys, the last one went 9000 miles in 11 years. The A/C works well and blows cold air, all in fine working order. We had our mechanic check the car and he gave it a clean bill of health. As you can judge for yourself from the pictures - the interior is clean while the seats show no wear! Some cars for sale beware have the seats sprayed before sale, or replaced with cheap crap, these are untouched and look a year old.
All the electrical options are in working order. The engine compartment is clean, and free of any leeks.
This Mercedes is equipped with the standard climate control system and the original Becker radio, all works great.
The car also comes with nice tires. The tires have plenty of tread life left.
This car was $64,230 in 1989. Very few on the road this nice. I searched 4 years for the ONE.
The reason I am selling it is because I am not using it more then 2 miles a week!
I paid $16,000, put in $800 for a new roof and $1100 to get the front end aligned and tightened up, just to make it perfect.

Mercedes calls CLA 'best launch in 20 years' as it warns dealers of tight supplies
Fri, 13 Dec 2013It's still in the early going, but it's looking more and more like the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA is a verifiable home run for the German brand. According to a new report from Bloomberg, the new small car isn't just widening the sales gap between Mercedes and BMW, it's attracting a new, younger breed of customers into the brand's showrooms. But that early success is straining supplies of the turbocharged four-door.
Dealers have been warned that the first half of 2014 will see limited supplies for CLA, with a letter to dealers indicating that "tight inventories and low days supply" will exist from February through June, despite the car's Kecskemét, Hungary plant running at full tilt.
"This is our best launch in 20 years," said Steve Cannon, the US boss for Mercedes. "The CLA has been a phenomenal success right out of the gate." The numbers certainly support that. We reported in early October that Mercedes moved 2,300 CLAs in its first week on sale, and now Bloomberg is saying CLA sales were almost singlehandedly responsible for Benz's November sales gains. Mercedes' annual sales are up 14 percent through the November, and it's enjoying a healthy 7,600-car lead over BMW.
France formally moves to ban Mercedes vehicles using contested refrigerant
Wed, 31 Jul 2013That didn't take long. Shortly after a French administrative court gave the French government a ten-day window to reconsider its ban on registrations of Mercedes-Benz A-, B- and CLA-Class cars using the prohibited R134a refrigerant, the government cited an EU directive to formalize banning the sale of the cars. The country's environmental ministry said that registrations "will remain forbidden in France as long as the company does not to conform to European regulations," meaning so long as they do not use the approved R1234yf refrigerant.
Daimler had won the administrative court decision by challenging France's application of a "safeguard" provision in which the EU allows a country to block sales of cars that would "seriously harm the environment." In spite of Daimler's victory, France has cited that very provision as basis for the continuation of the ban.
Daimler got permission from Germany's KBA federal motor authority to keep selling cars with the coolant banned by EU politicians, and is using that national permission as the right to sell the cars throughout Europe. Meanwhile, above that battle, German politicians are asking the EU to let Mercedes sell the cars in France while the KBA does more testing, at the same time as the EU is threatening Germany with repercussions if it doesn't bring the KBA and Daimler into line.
Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
