2006 Mercedes-benz Cls-class Cls 55amg on 2040-cars
Arlington, California, United States
Email me at : maliacastro2ry@archaeologist.com This exceptional Mercedes-Benz CLS55 AMG was purchased September 1, 2007(certified pre-owned, 4000 miles) from Park Place Motors, Fort Worth, Texas, andhas been owned by me since. This is the only year Mercedes combined the iconicfirst generation CLS body with the legendary supercharged 5.5 liter AMG engine.It has every option available at the time except Parktronic and integratedphone, and everything works as designed. Superb condition inside and out (theback seat has been occupied probably fewer than 10 times). Garage kept. Thefront struts (air suspension) are new as is the air pump. There is plenty ofwear left on the brakes and the tires (Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+) are nearlynew. It has been meticulously maintained by Mercedes-Benz dealers. All servicerecords are complete and up-to-date. It has been eminently reliable - easily themost reliable of the seven Mercedes I have owned. I hate to see this one go, butthere are too many cars and the wife says one must leave. Please Note! -- Thisis a Houston car but was not subjected to any flood water AT ALL. It iscompletely dry and unaffected. I will assist in arranging shipping within thecontinental USA if desired, but buyer is responsible for cost.

Clark Gable's 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing doesn't sell, then does sell for $1.85 million [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013How much extra value does previous celebrity ownership add to of a car? Really, there's no way to know until the car in question hits the auction block and bidders start raising their hands. In the case of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing you see above, the celebrity owner is none other than Clark Gable, who purchased it new. After Gable's death in 1960, the car changed hands a few times before settling with Charles Wood in 1975.
A high-dollar restoration was performed in 1989, and period accessories added by Gable himself were kept in place, including the Rudge knock-off wheels and Nardi steering wheel. Any Mercedes-Benz 300SL is worth a big chunk of money. In the case of Clark Gable's old Gullwing, the bidding stalled at $1.9 million here at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. As one of the 5000-series cars, this 300SL carried a reserve, and a bit of after-the-fact dealmaking saw the car change hands for $1.85 million.

SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In 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-Benz killing Maybach in 2013, replacing with S600 Pullman
Fri, 25 Nov 2011According to an unnamed Mercedes-Benz source speaking with AutoWeek, the German automaker is killing off its Maybach line in 2013.
The unsurprising news comes after the brand was resurrected in 2002, but failed to meet sales expectations with its two core models, the Maybach 57 and 62. Further solidifying its fate, a deal with Aston Martin to aid in the development of future Maybachs fell through earlier this year.
According to the AutoWeek insider, the plan is to continue to sell both Maybach models through the end of 2013, after which the fifth-generation S-Class will go on sale. When that happens, three new variants of the S-Class will be available, including an all-new, range-topping S600 that brings back the Pullman moniker and may be better suited to competing with the likes of Bentley and Rolls-Royce.
