Please read BEFORE bidding:
Due to 3, YES 3, "winning" bidders NOT paying for this car and 2 other cars I sold on here in the last month, I now REQUIRE a $500 non-refundable deposit via paypal immediately following the auction's end. I'm sorry about this, but I have had to re-list this car and 2 others, which not only costs MORE money, but WASTES more time. It's become a joke, but not in a funny way! If you don't understand that you are BUYING a car online, and this is not a "game" but rather an auction that you CHOSE to participate in, then PLEASE DO NOT BID!!! If you have less than 10 feedback, you MUST contact me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid. I don't want any excuses about how you're "out of the Country on business" or "you are just so busy at work you can't get away to pick it up".... that's pure BS! If you win the car, you have committed to BUY IT. Understand??? Make sure your cash is liquid and available BEFORE bidding. If you win, you have 3 business days to pay me in full. NO exceptions. I prefer bank wire or verifiable cashiers check (car will not leave until check CLEARS bank which can take UP TO 21 days (cleared funds, not just showing "funds available" at my bank...that is a courtesy the FED requires banks to do within so many days of depositing a check, but that doesn't guarantee funds are good. Scammers know this...my father-in-law was scammed twice in a week but luckily didn't fall for it...nor will I), )...Again, wire is preferred. Of course if you pick the car up in person, cash is always accepted. You can arrange to have the car picked up at a later date, but it MUST be paid for by the Wednesday afternoon after the auction ends. PERIOD. If you cannot comply with what you have just read, then PLEASE do not bid. Thank You to those of you that do understand the "apparently difficult concept" of eBay...you bid...you win...you pay. It's a pretty simple concept, but 3 different people out of 4 auctions I had in the last month didn't understand that concept and have wasted my time, my money, and I'm over it. Now, lets get on to the fun stuff...my beautiful car: You're looking at my 1989 Mercedes Benz 560 SL, the flagship for Mercedes and a true icon of a car. This is the last year for the classic styling, and quite collectible. This car is still wearing it's original and rare black paint and it looks amazing to this day. The car has always been garaged and it shows both inside and out. The paint is super shiny and deep (see reflection photo...amazing for 24 year old paint!). Southern car...no rust. The car is built like a tank and the doors close with a solid heavy thunk. The exterior of the car looks great with only a few minor dings in a few spots (common on any car that's this old, and especially on a black car). They do not detract from the beauty of this class automobile though, and barely show up in the pics. Carfax shows a minor accident in 2002. I did not own the car back then. I cannot see any evidence of this, and the paintwork matches beautifully if indeed it was repaired. There is no evidence or overspray to suggest that the car was repainted, but I am not a professional. There is no rust and again, I'm assuming if there was an accident that it was minor. The black leather interior (not the cheaper MB Tex) is still in nice shape. The drivers seat has a little wear on the outer bolster from getting in and out, and a small cut on the seat bottom. Both easily repaired by any trim shop if they bother you, and at not a great cost. Carpets are in good condition. The wood trim as in most of these older SL's is cracking in a few places (center console, above glove box) but readily available and easy to replace. The dash pad itself looks amazing with no cracking at all...a rare sight. The black cloth soft top is in useable condition, but it is showing it's age and should be replaced down the road. It has some wear and tear, but again is still useable. Hardtop is nice with no major weird stains on the inner headliner. A hardtop stand on wheels is also included in the sale, used to safely store the hardtop when it's not on the vehicle. All mechanical systems are in fine working order. Engine runs well. Brakes and tires are good. A/C blows cold. Power windows and locks work as they should. Has it's original Becker stereo/cassette player and factory First Aid Kit in the trunk. The speedometer works fine but the odometer quite working a little while back. Not many miles have been put on the car since it broke, but it will be sold with an "exempt" title due to it's age. The car has always been maintained and garaged, and is in fine condition as you can see in the pictures. The car needs nothing but to be enjoyed by it's new owners. All books and both sets of keys come with the car. I am a private collector who has been asked by my wife to "thin the herd". I had 15 exotics and muscle/collector cars...am down to 11...and she wants me down to 6. So, this one must go to new home. I have it stored in my buddies garage because we just detailed it and I only have room to park it outside and exposed to the elements at my house (yet ANOTHER reason why my wife wants me to sell a lot of my cars)...I took these pics in his yard before we put it away in his garage. Free and clear title, in my name, in my possession. All sales are final, so ask any and all questions before bidding. Please make sure you have your finances ready before bidding, as full payment is required within 5 business days from the end of the auction. If you don't understand that, please do not bid. Make sure you have permission from your spouse, boss, priest, whomever BEFORE bidding. I do not have time for games and BS. This is a nice car that won't break the bank to own. I'm listing this with NO RESERVE...last bid wins! Bid high and bid often. Thanks for looking and good luck! |

Mercedes mulling Renault-based entry-level X-Class?
Sun, 17 Mar 2013Somewhere in between the Smart brand and the all-new A-Class (pictured above), Daimler is said to be readying a smaller entry-level product for the Mercedes-Benz brand to compete with models like the Audi A1. According to AutoBild, Mercedes-Benz will get a new hatchback based on a platform from its recent partnership with Renault-Nissan, and it could be called the X-Class.
Expected to debut by 2018, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class could be offered in sedan, hatchback and crossover variants, and it would likely have a starting price below the $20,000-euro mark. Power would come from either a 1.0-liter inline three-cylinder engine or a 1.5-liter inline-four, and the car would likely be built in a low-cost nation in order to make the financials work. Wearing the Mercedes-Benz name, the X-Class would have to exhibit more distinguishable luxury and styling to set itself apart from the models that helped provide its underpinnings.
US buyers show little interest in big hybrids
Sat, May 10 2014The idea of producing large, luxury-vehicle hybrids is turning into a "what were they thinking?" exercise in futility, USA Today reports. General Motors is discontinuing hybrid versions of the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon SUVs, while Mercedes-Benz and Toyota's Lexus division are doing the same with their S-Class hybrid and LS hybrid sedans, respectively. The culprit? Big price increases for fuel economy improvements that border on the unimpressive. Granted, the Escalade hybrid gets 31 percent better fuel economy than the standard version, but that still maps out to a combined fuel-efficiency rating of just 21 miles per gallon. That can be seen as a worthwhile increase, if it didn't cost over $8,000 extra. The 2014 Escalade Hybrid, for example, starts at $74,425 while the non-hybrid can be had for $66,295. Meanwhile, the Lexus full-size hybrid costs $6,000 more than the regular version but only gets 1-2 mpg better combined fuel economy. The result of all these high costs? Low sales. Through April, GM sold 82 of its hybrid SUVs and pickups, down from 541 a year earlier. And the LS hybrid sales were in single-digit territory for April. That isn't stopping Lexus from promoting its hybrids as the right solution (with the wrong facts), though. There are still automakers giving big hybrid vehicles a shot, though. Nissan's Infiniti division is selling a hybrid version of its QX60 and says an impressive 10 percent of QX60 buyers choose the hybrid, which costs just $3,000 more. Looks like money talks.

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA order guide leaked
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The dealer order guide for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA has made its way online courtesy of the crew at CLAForums.com, and not only does it shed light on the ways buyers will be able to configure the entry-level sedan, it talks specific option pricing. Shoppers will be able to select between the CLA250 and CLA250 4Matic, and the option sheet should offer a number of packages to suit buyer tastes, including a sport package with tweaked fascias and unique wheels. Bi-xenon headlamps and 18-inch alloys may also be had as well as a panoramic sunroof and a collision avoidance system. The CLA will be available with a number of active safety systems on board, including lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, park assist and blind spot assist, to name a few.
The new sedan comes in 10 colors, including a very dashing purple Mecedes-Benz calls Northern Lights Violet, and there are a total of four interior trim finishes. The automaker hasn't released final pricing of all models just as of yet - we do know from Mercedes' Kate Upton Super Bowl ad that the car will start at $29,900 - but you can check out individual option and package pricing in the gallery. You can also find more information over at CLAForums.com.
