UNFORTUNATE DISCLAIMER PLEASE READ EVERY WORD OF THIS LISTING BEFORE CONSIDERING THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU.
AFTER 1500 POSITIVE TRANSACTIONS I JUST RECEIVED BAD FEEDBACK FROM A BUYER WHO PURCHASED A CUSTOM TRUCK FROM ME FOR A VERY LOW PRICE. IT PROBABLY WOULD COST THREE TIMES AS MUCH TO BUILD THE TRUCK. I LISTED IT WITH THE PROS AND CONS INCLUDING OVER 5K IN IMPROVEMENTS. THE BUYER STARTED CALLING ME AND DEMANDING MONEY PRIOR TO EVEN RECEIVING THE TRUCK IN HIS STATE. WHEN HE RECEIVED IT, HE MADE A OUTRIGHT CASH DEMAND FOR 1500 DOLLARS "OR ELSE". HIS LIST OF COMPLAINTS INCLUDED A MISSING SCREW IN HEADLINER, A SMALL "WHINING" NOISE IN THE TRANSMISSION IN THIRD GEAR, AND A NON WORKING TURN SIGNAL BULB. THIS AFTER HAVING ALREADY NEGOTIATED THE PRICE DOWN 1000.00 PRIOR TO BUYING IT. HE THEN TOLD ME I SHOULD HAVE LISTED THE TRUCK AS A "PROJECT" IF I KNEW THE HEADLINER BRACKET WAS MISSING ONE SCREW, AND THAT IT NEEDED A TURN SIGNAL BULB. THIS GUY TAUGHT ME A LESSON FOR FUTURE LISTINGS, AND THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION IS RESPONSIVE TO THIS PERSON. YOUTUBE VIDEO 1 http://youtu.be/5B5HmvP8b-c YOUTUBEVIDEO 2 http://youtu.be/m227Y2_uLXs YOU ARE BIDDING ON A SL 500 MERCEDES FROM THE YEAR 2003. IT HAS 74000 ORIGINAL MILES ACCORDING TO THE TITLE WHICH IS STILL MARKED "ACTUAL" MILES. I ALSO CHECKED CARFAX AND IT OF COURSE REFLECTS LESS, SINCE LAST TIME MILES WERE REGISTERED. THIS IS A ALMOST 12 YEAR OLD VEHICLE. IT HAS NOT BEEN IN MY POSSESSION FOR THOSE 12 YEARS. PLEASE SEND A RETIRED FIREMAN, OR A TRUSTED RELATIVE, OR A SCHOOL TEACHER, OR CALL INSPECT MY RIDE, (ONLINE THIRD PARTY INSPECTION COMPANY WHO WILL SEND AN INSPECTOR TO GIVE YOU A REPORT) OR COME YOUR SELF, OR ANY OTHER OPTION THAT IS AVAILABLE TO YOU TO SEE THIS VEHICLE FOR YOURSELF PRIOR TO PURCHASING IT, IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER EXPECTATION THAN A 12 YEAR OLD CAR. THIS CAR, HAS IMPERFECTIONS. IT HAS LITTLE DINGS. IT HAS MINOR SCRATCHES, OR SCRATCHES DUE TO WEAR. IT IS NOT PERFECT. IT MAY HAVE A LITTLE NOISE HERE AND THERE THAT WAS NOT PRESENT THE DAY THE FIRST OWNER PAID 80K FOR IT AND TOOK IT OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP. PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT A NEW CAR THIS IS NOT. THIS IS A NICE USED CAR. IT IS A MERCEDES BENZ IT IS NOT A TOYOTA. I RECENTLY READ SOMETHING THAT MADE A LOT OF SENSE, IF YOU CANT AFFORD TO MAINTAIN SOMETHING DONT OWN IT. PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT A $60.00 BRAKE JOB, OR A $19.00 DOLLAR OIL CHANGE ON A SL500 MERCEDES. ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU WILL IT, OR WISH IT TO BE TRUE. THE CARS INTERIOR IS IN NICE SHAPE. NOT PERFECT BUT RESPECTABLE FOR ITS AGE. IT HAS A SMALL TEAR BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT IN A REAR COMPARTMENT DOOR. NOT REALLY VISIBLE FROM INSIDE WITHOUT PUTTING SEAT FORWARD. DRIVERS SEAT HAS NORMAL WEAR. THERE IS A LITTLE LOSE MATERIAL ON THE BOTTOM OF DRIVERS HEADREST. DASHBOARD IS CLEAN . I DONT SEE ANY STAINS OR SCRATCHES OR TEARS ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE INTERIOR BUT YOU MAY HAVE A MORE DISCERNING EYE, SO IF YOU LIKE TO DISCUSS OVER THE PHONE I WILL DO THAT, AND THEN SEND YOU A DETAILED MESSAGE THROUGH EBAY OF EVERYTHING DISCUSSED ON THE PHONE. THE RADIO WAS DAMAGED SO I PURCHASED A FACTORY RENEWED ONE FROM A COMPANY IN EBAY. IT WORKS PERFECTLY. IT WAS INSTALLED BY THE MERCEDES SHOP IN MIAMI. 3O YRS IN BUSINESS, OWNER IS MARIO HE HAS DONE ALL WORK ON CAR AND YOU ARE WELCOME TO HIS NUMBER IF YOU WISH TO SPEAK WITH HIM.

LISTED ABOVE ARE ALL THE MAJOR ITEMS THAT TYPICALLY GO WRONG ON THESE CARS, SPECIALLY THE HYDRAULIC PUMP. THESE ARE REPAIRS YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO DO IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO BUY A USED SL500. I WILL TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE MERCEDES SHOP PRIOR TO IT BEING SHIPPED TO SELLER TO MAKE SURE HEADLAMPS TURN SIGNALS ETC ARE ALL WORKING AND THAT AC IS COOLING. IT IS COLD NOW AND WORKING. A MERCEDES FACTORY PRINTOUT SHOWING ANY FAULT CODES AND ALL ITEMS WORKING WILL BE INCLUDED WITH VEHICLE DAYS PRIOR TO IT BEING PICKED UP, OR IF PICKING UP IN PERSON WE CAN TAKE TO SHOP TOGETHER TO GET INSPECTION AS WELL AS A REPORT. MERCEDES CALLS THIS COLOR BLACK PEARL OPAL OR BLACK OPAL. THE TITLE ACCURATELY REFLECTS IT AS BLACK. IT LOOKS DARK BLUE TO ME, AND IN SUNLIGHT THE METAL FLAKE AND THE PEARL MAKE IT SEEM BLUE GREEN TO ME. BUT WHAT DO I KNOW. PLEASE LOOK AT PICS IN BRIGHT SUN. THE RIMS HAVE NORMAL ROAD RASH FOR THEIR AGE, AND THEY ARE AMG WHEELS. THE TIRES SEEM TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION AND APPEAR TO BE AT LIKE 70 PERCENT OF WEAR. PLEASE DO NOT HOLD ME TO IT. THEY LOOK GOOD I DID NOT TAKE A PRECISION TOOL TO MEASURE TREAD. PLEASE ASSUME YOU NEED TIRES IF THIS DESCRIPTION IS NOT SATISFACTORY. THE VEHICLE RUNS AND DRIVES WELL FOR A 74K MILE, 12 YEAR OLD CAR. IT DOES NOT DRIVE LIKE A 2014 MERCEDES. IT IS A 2003. IT HAS I AM SURE SOME VARIATIONS , AND SOME NOISES, AND SOME MECHANICAL WEAR DUE TO ITS AGE AND IT USE. THE MOTOR IS NOT BLOWN AND THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHOT. I WELCOME ALL INSPECTIONS PRIOR TO PURCHASE. PLEASE DO NOT CONSIDER THIS VEHICLE IF YOU ARE EXPECTING A "HOME RUN", I.E.....A $30,000.00 VEHICLE FOR $20,000.00 OR PLEASE DO NOT BUY IF YOU ARE ENVISIONING YOURSELF IN A MINT, SHOW CONDITION, IMMACULATE, PERFECT CAR.

I WELCOME ALL INSPECTIONS. VEHICLE IS AS DESCRIBED. I WOULD LIKE TO SELL IT SO IF YOU WANT TO NEGOTIATE PRICE SOME.... I AM WILLING TO LISTEN.

Mercedes-Benz GLK coupe to get 2016 intro
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Radio chatter around the emerging small, premium crossover coupe genre has thus far been dominated by the Land Rover Evoque and the Mini Paceman. According to a report in Car, the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class (shown above) has received its invitation to the party and will spend the next three years getting ready: it's said that two-door variant of the crisply-angled CUV is coming in 2016, along with a redesign befitting its sleeker intentions.
To be based on the MRA platform - the rear-drive version of the company's three new modular platforms, it will also support the coming 2013 S-Class and could eventually get an AMG version to help it compete with segment offerings like the forthcoming Porsche Macan. Not much else is known about it beyond its name: Car says it will be called the GLC, a friendly nomenclature we remember best as a Mazda hatchback (allegedly for "Good Little Car"). Internet oldtimers may remember the Mazda GLC as the predecessor to the 323 (which in turn came before today's Mazda3). Either way, the GLC is not to be confused with the larger upcoming BMW X6 rival based on the ML-Class (reportedly called GLS) which is also said to still be in the works, or the front-drive based GLA, a model also edging toward production.
Mercedes C111 concept in commercial spoof A Fistful of Wolves
Fri, Jan 16 2015A Fistful of Wolves is a spoof of fashion advertising, commissioned by Mercedes-Benz to spread a cheeky word about Berlin Fashion Week. Yet, in the lampooning of sartorial gobbledygook, plenty of automotive advertising gets doused with cold water, too - like the ads that subscribe to the importance of being earnest (looking at you Matthew McConaughey and Kate Walsh), or the ones that try to convey just how unimaginably cool you'll be once you've jumped into the three-year-lease hole (looking at you, um... Mercedes-Benz and every other German luxury brand). We appreciate a brand that can make fun of itself, though. Led by Australian Justin O'Shea driving the Mercedes C111 through Berlin, it's beautiful satire as O'Shea tries to be fashion-forward while his friends go on about their daily lives, wondering why he never seems to be listening until he's offered cake, or why he's trying to walk in slow motion. Check it out in the video above. News Source: Mercedes-Benz via YouTube, Car and Driver Celebrities Humor Marketing/Advertising Mercedes-Benz Coupe Concept Cars Videos spoof
Mercedes Concept GLA45 AMG is ready to run
Wed, 20 Nov 2013This is the Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA45 AMG, and what we mean by that is, "This is the Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG." Mercedes has just unveiled the liveried 'concept' at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, giving potential customers a very good look at the newest lunatic in the AMG asylum - a 355-horsepower, 332-pound-foot crossover that uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the CLA45 AMG and Europe's A45 AMG.
Joined with a seven-speed, AMG Speedshift dual-clutch transmission and an AMG Performance 4Matic all-wheel-drive system, Mercedes promises a sub-five-second run to 60 miles per hour. That's not just quick for a crossover, that's quick full stop.
That sleek, lifted body has also been tweaked by the minds at AMG's Affalterbach facility. A new rear spoiler, side sills and front clip are the primary aerodynamic tweaks. Aesthetically, AMG has fitted the requisite "Turbo" badges, gloss-black accents (including exhaust tips and roof rails) and a set of 21-inch, AMG-spec alloy wheels to round out the overall package. Based on the spy shots we've seen, expect slightly toned down aerodynamics when the GLA45 AMG arrives in showrooms.
