this car is in very good shape - it has brand new brakes and rotors(last week) - the tires are at about half life - the pictures here were taken last summer but the car has only been driven about 500 miles since these pics were taken - just enough to keep it rolling - i will list everything that i can think of that is an issue - the drivers side door latch is broken but i have a brand new replacement for it - the back driver side window does not open - glass off track i was quoted 400 to fix it but i think it can be done a lot cheaper with some salvage yard searching - drivers side power window sticks but i also have a replacement switch for that - clock and tach don't work on dash - rear wiper and power antenna don't work - drivers side seat is a bit soft - all that being said - the car is great - runs great and is quite clean - i just want to disclose everything so there are no surprises - --- the grease conversion is a one tank system which I have found to be MUCH easier than the dual tank - the filtered grease pours directly into the gas tank and mixed with diesel - you can mix it - use straight grease or straight diesel - whichever you like - the fuel injector and the fuel lines are heated - when you get in the car in the morn you just flip the toggle to heat the lines and wait two min before starting it up - once the car is warm if you are making multiple stops around town you will not need to warm lines every time - in the coldest months you can mix in diesel w grease so it wont clog up - but i usually just use straight diesel once it gets below 30 - (I got stuck one time - lesson learned) --------- the only real rust on the car is under the back wheel wells - see pics - car is super cool to cruise around in - my wife used it as her daily driver for 2-3 years before getting a new car 2 years ago - now we just use it to kick around in - so its time to unload it - i have over 10 k into this car but realize that will be tough to recoup so i will let it go for much less - good luck - feel free to ask questions or come drive it if you are nearby -

Mercedes calls CLA 'best launch in 20 years' as it warns dealers of tight supplies
Fri, 13 Dec 2013It's still in the early going, but it's looking more and more like the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA is a verifiable home run for the German brand. According to a new report from Bloomberg, the new small car isn't just widening the sales gap between Mercedes and BMW, it's attracting a new, younger breed of customers into the brand's showrooms. But that early success is straining supplies of the turbocharged four-door.
Dealers have been warned that the first half of 2014 will see limited supplies for CLA, with a letter to dealers indicating that "tight inventories and low days supply" will exist from February through June, despite the car's Kecskemét, Hungary plant running at full tilt.
"This is our best launch in 20 years," said Steve Cannon, the US boss for Mercedes. "The CLA has been a phenomenal success right out of the gate." The numbers certainly support that. We reported in early October that Mercedes moved 2,300 CLAs in its first week on sale, and now Bloomberg is saying CLA sales were almost singlehandedly responsible for Benz's November sales gains. Mercedes' annual sales are up 14 percent through the November, and it's enjoying a healthy 7,600-car lead over BMW.
SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
Brabus 800 Roadster is a power-mad aristocrat
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If we're being completely honest, we haven't exactly been in love with the aesthetics of the sixth-generation Mercedes-Benz SL-Class. It's mostly a front-end issue, with its glowering eagle-eye headlamps and upright, dinner-plate-sized Three-Pointed Star coming across to us as overwrought. That's particularly troublesome for a roadster whose history has of the most elegant designs of all time in its back catalog. Somehow, the new R231 generation's brash visuals seem more at home on this Brabus 800 Roadster to us.
That's probably because the high-dollar German tuner has turned up the wick on the SL's visuals even further, with carbon fiber bodywork, a more aggressive aero kit, matte hood scoop and complex two-finish wheels. It's all-the-way committed to its brashness, in other words - and justifiably so. Anything with 800 horsepower and 1,047 pound-feet of torque has earned the right to look however it wants, right?
Brabus started with the SL65 and its not-exactly-underpowered 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12, and went to town, fitting their own turbocharger and intercooler system, along with a less-restrictive exhaust system with driver-selectable sound levels and new engine electronics. The result is a 3.7-second 0-62 mph time, an electronically limited top whack of 217 mph... and one seriously compromised toupée.
