Being sold at NO RESERVE!!!!!!!!!
 This car is as good as it gets.  I bought the Mercedes about 7 years ago and it has been very reliable.  I bought it with less than 22,000 miles and now it has less than 36,000 miles.  It is fully optioned (the only two options were the Panoramic Roof and the Sports Package which added about $9000 to the MSRP.  The total MSRP of the car back in 1998 was almost $130,000.
The paint, interior and both tops are like new.   The car runs and drives perfectly, like new and does not have any issues.  There is not even a single door ding on this car.  I would not hesitate to get in this car and drive it anywhere.
The air conditioning blows cold and everything works as it should.
Why am I selling it?  Well, actually I really don't want to.  The car is just too nice and I could never replace it with something as good.  But I have been traveling a lot lately and I don't get to drive it enough.  I have been back in town this month and I put about 800 trouble free miles on it.
The car is pretty fast, with almost 400 horsepower but surprisingly, it gets decent gas mileage.  I get about 23 mpg on the highway.  Around town......not so much.
I honestly don't think you will find a better example anywhere.  I know, I looked quite a while at SL600's before I bought this one.  I have babied the car in the 7 years I have owned it.  I have only used Mobil 1 oil in it.
The car has four nearly new top of the line Bridgestone tires.
It has a 6 disc CD changer mounted in the trunk.
One of the wheels has some road rash about two inches long on it but you would hardly notice it unless I pointed it out.
And another wheel has some clear coat cracking which is not noticeable unless unless you put your face right up to it.
If you bring a magnifying glass, you might find some other blemishes, but I promise you this, if you are looking for a 129 series SL600 (and 1998 is the best year to buy too), then you would be hard pressed to find a better one.
The car is located in the city of Perris California. 
The other thing is that I traveling starting the second or third week of August.  So I need to sell the car, collect the money and deliver it before August 10th.   This is VERY IMPORTANT
Being sold at NO RESERVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So the car will be sold next week.  If you bid, please sure you will be able to complete your end of the transaction
If you have any questions, please send me a message and I will respond with in 24 hours.
Thank you.

I received this question today and provided the following answer:

Do you have a buy it now price?
Paint and body panels factory?
Any rust on body or undercarriage?
California car all it's life?

No thought on a buy it now price
Car has never been in an accident and all paint and bodywork are original
The car is as clean on the bottom as it is on the top. No rust anywhere on the car.
Look at the picture of the engine - it has never been cleaned. it just stays that nice.
I bought the car in Chicago and drove it home. I looked for two years for "the right" car and this was it. It was owned by a rich doctor who only drove it in the summer time. He sold it to me with 21,000 miles on it 7+ years ago. It was not cheap for me but I wanted the best and I didn't want any problems. And that was I got.  The car's title was transferred to his trust (for tax purposes I am guessing) which is why it shows multiple owners on the report
If you are asking about rust........you would be thrilled with the condition of the car. It is like new.
Good ones don't come up for sale like this very often and the good ones are usually sold through networking or clubs.
Best of luck bidding

Mercedes C111 concept in commercial spoof A Fistful of Wolves

Fri, Jan 16 2015

A 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
