61000 Mile 300 Turbo Diesel, Perfect In Every Way. Has Bio-diesel Conversion. on 2040-cars
Pocono Manor, Pennsylvania, United States

I purchased the 300 7 years ago and have driven it about 3500 miles. Its been a summer car and stored indoors the rest of the year. I have acquired 25 collectors over the years and need to sell a few, although I'd rather buy than sell. This might be the only car I own that there is nothing I need to do to be perfect. I love to drive it and its a cruiser at 85 MPH all day and with a 13 gallon bio diesel reserve it can go almost 900 miles without a refill, although Ive never done it. The paint is beautiful and the underside looks like it is a year old, dirty but absolutely no rust, not even a trace. Still has original exhaust, as well as everything else. The interior is impeccable, carpets and seats are excellent. I would drive across the country and back tomorrow. The bio diesel conversion is really trick, just a flip of the switch and you're running on vegetable oil, that easy. Air condition works every summer and everything else works perfect, even the original radio.I switched the wheels over to the next series type and they are 16 inch with continental 215/60-16 tires, about 1500 miles. The original spare is in the trunk, but not in the compartment because the bio diesel tank fits in there. The wheels are perfect, no marks and the tire size looks good and handles even better than stock. Speedo is off by 5 miles an hour but it cruises at highway speeds easier. This engine is just starting to break in and is actually very peppy for a diesel. The transmission shifts really nice, I had a specialist tune it perfect and Ive driven others that shift very hard. I will truly miss this car as I always loved this classic look but the next lucky person will have many years of enjoyment as I have. If for any reason you don't think this is the car for you after seeing it, you will not be obligated to buy it. I wont ask for a deposit but if you cant pick it up after 2 weeks of the auction I will sell it to the next bidder. I am straight up and never want someone stuck with a car that is not what they thought it was. I have sold a few cars and my feedback is good on selling. Good luck bidding.

Mercedes rules out hybrid supercar, promises SLS successor
Sat, 16 Mar 2013The recent Geneva Motor Show was a festival of hypercars, with the presence of not one, but three over-the-top debuts: the Lamborghini Veneno, McLaren P1 and Ferrari LeFerrari. The latter two have hitched their carbon fiber bumpers to the electrification bandwagon by using hybrid-electric powertrains not entirely unlike the propulsion systems we've come to know in cars like the Toyota Prius and Chevrolet Volt. Does that mean the flow of electrons up the four-wheeled food chain will eventually consume our hallowed supercars? Not if AMG has anything to say about it.
AMG Director of Vehicle Development Tobias Moers recently confirmed that not only will there be a successor to the Mercedes-Benz performance division's SLS AMG, he notes that its internal combustion engine will most definitely not be sharing living quarters with an electric drivetrain. Instead, AMG plans to focus on further pushing the power and efficiency envelope of the internal combustion engine and advancing the use of lightweight materials to achieve their goals. The first example of this effort can be seen in the new SLS AMG Black Series that incorporates many weight-saving techniques to shed some 154 pounds from the SLS AMG GT (above), which itself is lighter than the standard SLS AMG.
Furthermore, Moers remarks that his company is happy to leave the hypercar segment to companies like Ferrari and McLaren. He admits that, "Ferrari in the hyper-car segment is still a different brand than AMG. We have to be honest..." So rather than taking the SLS further upmarket to do battle with bulls and stallions, Moers hinted that the next-generation SLS may be joined by another performance model that fits neatly between itself and the C63 AMG.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
World Car Of The Year down to its final four
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
