2008 Mercedes-benz Clk-class Black Series on 2040-cars
Barrington, Illinois, United States
We have decided to sell our Black Series and go into a different direction. We love this car and that is why we
did all of these upgrades, but unfortunately it is time to move on. We are the 3rd owner, I know the 2nd owners
name and his California address is still in the Navi. However the Autocheck shows 6 owners since it went from
dealer to dealer. If a dealer has the car longer than a month they have to transfer the cars title into their name.
We bought the car locally from a dealer here in the Chicago area in April of 2014 and have put around 4K miles on
it since then, but only 150 this year. The plates expired in April and it needed emissions tested for us to renew,
at that point we kind of knew that we wanted to sell, so it just sat here. Yes, it will pass emissions.
Over the winter 2 pieces of carbon fiber cracked (lucky me), the ashtray and the shifter surround. I removed the
front bumper in February to get it repainted (rock chips & several previous touch ups) so I had the front louvers,
ashtray & surround redone by a carbon fiber guy. All 5 pieces look like new.

-42,715 miles.

*More Pictures* This car has went up in value and I am sure that it will continue to do so. They imported 367 of these to North
America, most of those are Black, or Silver. The other 2 colors are Red (approx. 10 made) & White (approx. 35
made). Here is your chance to get a rare car that has all of the "required" upgrades already done!

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA order guide leaked
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The dealer order guide for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA has made its way online courtesy of the crew at CLAForums.com, and not only does it shed light on the ways buyers will be able to configure the entry-level sedan, it talks specific option pricing. Shoppers will be able to select between the CLA250 and CLA250 4Matic, and the option sheet should offer a number of packages to suit buyer tastes, including a sport package with tweaked fascias and unique wheels. Bi-xenon headlamps and 18-inch alloys may also be had as well as a panoramic sunroof and a collision avoidance system. The CLA will be available with a number of active safety systems on board, including lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, park assist and blind spot assist, to name a few.
The new sedan comes in 10 colors, including a very dashing purple Mecedes-Benz calls Northern Lights Violet, and there are a total of four interior trim finishes. The automaker hasn't released final pricing of all models just as of yet - we do know from Mercedes' Kate Upton Super Bowl ad that the car will start at $29,900 - but you can check out individual option and package pricing in the gallery. You can also find more information over at CLAForums.com.
Next Mercedes-Benz GLK to get AMG variant? Not likely...
Fri, 15 Mar 2013If you think Mercedes-Benz will slap an AMG badge on anything with wheels, think again. Word has it the German manufacturer will not offer buyers a performance version of the GLK, with Tobias Moers, director of AMG vehicle development, saying that he doesn't see a market for the car. That's not to say the picture won't change in the near future, however. According to CarAdvice.com, AMG is keeping a close eye on the arrival of the Porsche Macan.
"Maybe there will be a change in the market when the Porsche [Macan] comes up," Moers said, "but right now, no."
The real hitch in the giddy-up seems to be cost. Moers says developing the machine into something worthy of an AMG would represent "a huge investment." We can't exactly argue with that. Fortunately, AMG buyers have plenty of Mercedes-Benz models to choose from.
Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG officially teased in mini video
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The followup to the Mercedes-Benz S550, the S63 AMG, will sport a biturbocharged V8 that will likely turn out around 550 horsepower. The new engine is probably the 5.5-liter, biturbocharged V-8 that's been popping up in everything from the ML63 to the E63 AMG. The front fascia is more aggressive, which shouldn't come as a surprise, while a meaty exhaust setup can be found out back.
We managed to pick all that up from a short, 17-second video posted by MB. The original video that unveiled the S63 AMG has since been pulled down, making this YouTube clip the best look we now have at the new super sedan, at least until the Germans give up the goods for real.
Be sure to check out the video below, along with our original posting on the S63 AMG.
