2007 Mercedes Benz Sl55 Amg on 2040-cars
Houston, Texas, United States
|
Hi everyone. This is my first time selling on ebay. I am a private seller wanting to sell a very high end vehicle to a discerning class of person. I am not a dealer. I have a 2007 Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG for sale, even though deep down I do not truly want to. I am in the process of purchasing a ranch in the Texas hill country and this is a sensible next step for me. This car was built to impress both visually and physically, and it does. Garage kept its entire life, and never driven in anything but sunshine. All maintenance kept religiously at Mercedes using Mercedes parts. The condition and past upkeep of this car makes the asking price very fair. I purchased this car from the original owner, a friend of mine I've known for a while. The original price he paid was $128,000, but after he was finished buying every upgrade he could., he spent over $148,000. It has been driven rarely, only on sunny days, and has always been kept in a climate controlled garage. Although it can move, this car is truly about luxury. The ride is very smooth and the feel transferred through the steering wheel is very controlled and certain. The suspension was meant to handle, and it does so very well, without a 'sport's car trade-off' found with comparable vehicles. The interior almost seems to embrace you softly while driving but not so much to where you feel like you're in a race car. There are several modes for the transmission- normal, winter, and manual so no matter the surface, it grips the road. It features: 19" Chrome wheels, Premium Leather Seating, Sport Steering Wheel, Aluminum Interior Trim, 10-speaker audio system, Silver-face AMG instruments with red needles, Leather power bucket seats with great torso bolstering, Distronic auto-distancing cruise control so you don't have to constantly be 'coasting' with a button because of varying speeds of cars around you, Parktronic proximity warning system, and many other features too numerous to list here. The pearl white paint underscores the word luxury, but as it was designed to be, the AMG variant means it can move should you wish to. Here are just a few of the performance features: 510 horsepower at 6100 rpm, 516 pound-feet of torque with a flat curve from 2650 to 4500 rpm. It's the most potent Benz ever offered in North America and also the quickest factory Benz with 0 to 60 in 4.5 seconds, 0 to 100 in 10.9, the quarter-mile in 13 seconds flat at 110 mph. Whether your goal in owning a car is by class or performance, you're covered on both fronts. You are responsible for all transportation and/or delivery charges. The vehicle is sold 'as is', with no warranty available from me, but you can buy aftermarket ones found online or elsewhere. I'm happy to field any questions you might have. Please let me know. Local interested parties in the Houston, TX. area are welcome to view it at a mutually agreed upon location (whether permitting). Just give me a call to set that up...281.413.5614. I intend to remove my license plates and registration stickers upon sale completion. Upon selecting to buy now, you will need to contact me personally within 48 hours and also make a non-refundable deposit of $500.00 in my PAYPAL account within that time frame as well. After that, remaining balance will need to be paid to me within 7 days with one of the following:
...and must clear my bank before I will release the title/vehicle. Any, 'my father is a Prince from Narutu in exile and I want to buy this car and ship to him for his birthday' scam'ers need not waste your time. Obviously, by not doing any of the above will result in reporting to Ebay and with negative feedback to help other sellers. Thank you. |

Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold
Wed, 08 Feb 2012Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.
Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Mercedes-AMG, Porsche and Koenigsegg Lego sets coming this summer
Sun, May 5 2024Lego has announced a slew of new automotive-themed sets. As is typical fashion for brand of building toys, the subject matter leans toward ultra-exotic, ultra-expensive vehicles, ranging from a $139,000 Mercedes SL63 on the low end to a $3 million Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut on the high end. If you can't afford those cars in real life, soon you'll be able to build your own plastic models of them. Some of the real-world counterparts aren't obtainable no matter what the cost. Take the Lamborghini Lambo V12 Vision Gran Turismo, for example. The one-off concept was designed by Lamborghini exclusively for Gran Turismo, the PlayStation racing simulator. However, Lamborghini did build a 1:1 version for the physical world, with the 808-horsepoewer hybrid V12 from the Sian FKP 37 beneath its bodywork. The Lego version is part of the company's Speed Champions line, which measure about 6 inches long. It does an excellent job of capturing the original's insectoid look and Y-shaped taillights. The set is made up of 230 pieces and will retail for $26.99. This is Lego's first Vision Gran Turismo car but we hope to see more. Also joining the Speed Champions line are two 2-car sets. An Aston Martin-themed set pairs a Vantage safety car with an AMR23 Formula 1 racer. Both are finished in AMR's bright green with actual sponsor logos. The set contains 564 pieces and will cost $44.99. Also arriving as a 2-car set are a pair of Mercedes-AMGs. A black G 63 and yellow SL 63 Roadster, along with a pair of sunglasses-clad bros, make up the 808-piece set. It also retails for $44.99. All three Speed Champions sets arrive on June 1, 2024. If you're looking for something a bit more advanced and detailed, Lego also offers the Technic line. First up is a Porsche GT4 e-Performance, a 1,000-horsepower race car based on the 718 Cayman. This set can also function as a remote controlled car that moves forward, backward, and steers via a downloadable smartphone app. The 834-piece set costs $169.99. Last but not least, there's the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, a model of the Swedish supercar that is said to have a top speed of over 300 mph. The model does an admirable job of capturing the car's 0.278 Cd drag coefficient, considering it's comprised of 801 individual plastic bricks. This set will retail for $49.99 and, along with the Porsche, comes out August 1, 2024. Related Video LEGO Speed Champion Build: 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback
First Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive rolls off line, coming to US soon
Fri, Apr 18 2014Mercedes-Benz is about to give Americans another choice of battery-powered vehicle. Offering more all-electric range than the Nissan Leaf or BMW i3, and with a smaller price tag than the Tesla Model S, the B-Class Electric Drive is officially set to arrive in the US this summer. Indeed, the first examples have begun rolling off the production line in Rastatt, Germany. Featuring drivetrain parts from Tesla Motors, the luxury compact hits all the performance parameters mentioned during its debut at last year's New York Auto Show. For a refresher, that's a single-charge range of 200 kilometers (124 miles) along with a 0-to-100 kilometer-per-hour (62 mile-per-hour) sprint in a respectable 7.9 seconds. These achievements comes courtesy of a 28-kWh lithium battery located in the floor of the passenger compartment and a 132-kW (177-horsepower) motor powering the front wheels. Torque specs for the unit seemed to have increased somewhat and are now given as 340 Newton meters (250.77 pound-feet). It boasts an 11-kW charger and can add as much as 62 miles of range to a deleted battery in an hour and a half. Sadly, it is not Supercharger compatible. The B-Class Electric Drive, which is built on the same production line as the gasoline-powered version, is going to go on sale in Europe around the end of the year and will also come in a right-hand drive version for other markets in 2015. Although pricing has not yet been announced, Mercedes execs expect it to be quite competitive with the BMW i3. Scroll below for the press release (Google translated from German). Model offensive: Mercedes-Benz launches first major series for electric cars - the start of production at Mercedes-Benz in Rastatt: B-Class Electric Drive begins For the first time large-scale production of Mercedes-Benz models with internal combustion engine and electric drive on the same line Stefan Abraham: "With the B-Class Electric Drive we are expanding our production portfolio at the Rastatt plant is a highly innovative drive variant." In the Mercedes-Benz plant in Rastatt today through the first B-Class Electric Drive off the line. This makes Mercedes-Benz models are produced with internal combustion engine and electric drive on the same line at the site for the first time. The B-Class Electric Drive is based on the Mercedes-Benz front-wheel drive architecture of the new Mercedes-Benz compact car generation and uses the modular component kit.
