This is a good looking Mercedes but has some imperfections. I would guess around 150,000 on car. Just put a new alternator on it. Everytime I drive this car I have people turning their heads to see it. It still cleans up nice and drives good. I bought this car from my mom and dad over 4 years ago, and was driving it to work until I bought a 300d. Now I have three Mercedes and dont drive this one as much. It is a old car Im sure there is stuff Im going to forget to tell you. If you can think of something please ask me I will tell you everything I know about car. If you want a closer picture of something I will try to get it posted as soon as possible. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere. It is a little low geared and interstate driving pushes it alittle hard. If you have any questions you can call me 618-638-3358 I work swing shift and will return your call if you leave message. I will answer email quicker. I can deliver this car. If you send me you address I will let you know how much. More pictures you can copy and paste http://s839.photobucket.com/user/sully75ford/media/1972MERCEDES026_zps2f8badb8.jpg.html s839.photobucket.com/user/sully75ford/media/1972MERCEDES026_zps2f8badb8.jpg.html

2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

Make way for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG, the most wonderfully preposterous car I have ever driven.
There is absolutely no reason why any two-seat roadster should be fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 developing 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, but I sure am glad that Mercedes-Benz doesn't see things that way.
Drop into the leather-lined cockpit of this $213,145 provocateur, floor the accelerator pedal as I did over and over again, and 60 miles per hour falls in a traction-limited 3.9 seconds. Top speed has been electronically held to 186 mph (this apparently saves Gulfstream jet owners from embarrassment). Forget the SL550 and SL63 AMG, the valets will trip over themselves attending to the tycoon driving this thoroughbred - it's the real deal.

Carlsson turns Mercedes-Benz SLK into 610-HP hill-climb clawer

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

Carlsson's race-tuned versions of the Mercedes-Benz SLK have been taking checkered flags for years, and we won't be surprised if its SLK 340 hill climber fares any different. Developed by multiple German and Swiss hill climb champion Reto Meisel, the carbon-bodied SLK 340 with lightweight brakes and a closed underbody weighs 1,716 pounds. Propelling that tiny bit of weight is a 3.4-liter V8 from Judd with 610 horsepower, and it rolls on 18-inch wheels shod in Avon tires.
It will debut at the Geneva Motor Show before beginning its racing campaigns in the summer. This one won't just tear up roads in Europe, though - Meisel says he plans on bringing it to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The press release below has more details.

Firing of M-B boss upheld

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Ernst Lieb, the disgraced former CEO of American operations for Mercedes-Benz, will not be getting any more money from the Silver Arrow'd teat. His wrongful dismissal suit against MB's parent company, Daimler, was tossed out of a German appeals panel. This, followed the initial rejection by a lower court last year.
According to court documents acquired by Automotive News, Lieb was found to have "accepted payments of substantial value to which he - as he was aware - had no claim."
Lieb took over American operations from former CEO Paul Halata in September of 2006. Reports surfaced in October of 2011 that Lieb was dismissed from his posting at MB, with a variety of rumors swirling. Eventually, news broke that financial wrong doing was responsible for the German's firing.
