 hello,
     thanks for looking at my car.....here is the story....we have a towing company here in albuquerque and got this car from a local storage unit due to non-payment from the renter. the car had been stored there for some time and its believed the owner pased away. the car was from texas. we obtained clear title for it through a towing a storage lien. the mileage on the car is 145,000 and i believe it to be accurate, but please use your own judgement. the odometer did work when i first drove it until i pushed the button to reset the trip to zero, and it never worked again. due to mew mexico law, all vehicles taken by towing and storage liens have the title stated as not actual miles. this title will reflect this.......ok, now the condition. the body on this car is AMAZING to say the least. no dents, rust, damage or anything i can find. the paint is LIKE NEW really, the chrome and paint shine like a new one. it has only a couple small nicks in the paint, one on the drivers mirror, and one near the left rear wheel well. the inside is in good shape too. the dash has some cracks from the desert heat and some of the wood too but not bad. all the rugs, door panels, headliner and things like that are in great shape. now some thing need attention as most of these old cars do. only the drivers window works. the passenger side does not do anything, and both rear doors, i think, may need window regulators. ( i can hear the motors running ). the radio lights up, and the display works but there is no sound. the clock doe not work. the tachometer does work after the car warms up. the power mirror on the right side does not work.....the other stuff like the speedometer, all other gauges, all lights, heater a/c, both power seats, wipers, horn all do work.....running condition....the car sails down the highway with good power and handles well. has almost new tires all the way around. the transmission shifts through the gears up and down and engages good with no slipping. the diesel engine is an old school diesel. it needs glow plugs to start sounds like a truck diesel, and has the usual diesel smoke. but all in all it runs like it should. all around a good solid mercedes. please look at the photos, as i dont know what more to say, only that it will sell without reserve, so if you want it, bid on it !! the car can stay here (garaged ) for up to 60 days if need be as long as its paid in full. i can help load on your trailer or transporter for you.....thank you and good luck !!!!

Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG coming to the New York Auto Show

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

Mercedes-Benz showed off the CLA45 AMG at a private event on the eve of the Geneva Motor Show, but was determined not to let it be photographed. We can talk about it, though - after all, a teaser image was released to promote the new Sony game Drive Club. The CLA45 AMG will use the same powertrain as the A45 AMG, which means a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. And that means a small four-door coupe sedan with the highest horsepower-per-liter in the segment. It will shift through the same seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, should also run out of speed at 155 miles per hour and have that three-stage stability control system.
As with its hatch sibling, the CLA is already so aggressive on the outside - and the parent company so anxious not to demolish the sedan's 0.22 coefficient of drag - that not much has been done to the cranked-up CLA. Even the rather thin tires on the standard only get a little less thin on the hotter variant. Inside will be the telltale AMG signs, with lots of red detailing and that flat-bottomed wheel among the giveaways. We'll know more later this month when the wraps come off at the New York International Auto Show.

The Mansory Speranza proves that money can buy taste and good sense...

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

...Just kidding.
No one in their right mind has ever accused German tuners Mansory of being subtle. So, when our Geneva team wandered across the Mansory Speranza - A Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen that has been denuded of its roof and spackled inside with quilted leather and red carbon fiber ­- they didn't ask a lot of existential questions. Why does the Speranza exist? Because Germans are weird sometimes, that's why.
Forget for a moment that you'll have to pay Mansory hundreds of thousands of euros (we're guessing, no pricing information has been revealed) for the privilege of converting your G-Class into something that looks like a Suzuki Samurai, and prepare to be impressed by the details. The tuning house has increased the output of the Mercedes V8 to a healthy 700 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque. The wheels are 24-inches, and wear almost unbelievable 305-section ultra-high performance Vresdestein tires. Carbon fiber can be found nearly everywhere one looks, including making up the housing for the spare tire. Oh, and there are leather pillows for the backseats... no word on whether they're standard or optional, but we're looking in to it.

Mercedes goes boating again with G63 AMG-inspired Cigarette

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

Cigarette Racing has another Mercedes-Benz AMG-themed boat headed out to sea. After The SLS AMG-inspired 46-foot Rough Rider in 2010 and the C63 AMG Black Series-inspired 50-foot Marauder in 2012, this year's Miami Boat Show will introduce the 42-foot Huntress, theme provided by the G63 AMG.
The latest Cigarette homage is less overly racy than the ones before, befitting a watercraft modeled off a performance SUV, but don't let the looks fool: there are five Mercury Racing Verado 350SCi outboard engines, each one of them packing a supercharged inline six-cylinder with, natch, 350 horsepower. Those 1,750 horses will be good for 78 miles per hour when you've got some saltwater underneath you.
If you're in South Florida this week, Booth B-23 at the Miami Convention Center could be your best place to see it. Otherwise, like the 536-hp G63 AMG, it could be hard to catch. There's a press release with more information below.
