 You are bidding on a Classic 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450 SE, the first S-Class which I am selling for a friend.  This is a  fine example of a true well maintained 41 year old gem which has 139,878 original miles on the 4.5 SOHC V8 with 190 HP. This model was built from 1972 to 1979, with this cars production date of August 1973.  

 This car is overall in GREAT shape and still shows Very Well!  The only known issues are a fist size rust area on the right quarter panel and some damage to the right front of the car where something fell on the fender in the past.  The interior is in above average condition for a car of this age and mechanically solid.  The state of Virginia does not require a state inspection for antique vehicle, but as you can see in the windshield, it passed the Virginia Inspection until September 2014.  Not many cars of this age could pass such an inspection.  All original VIN Etched Owners Manual, Ice Scrapper and Books are still with the car.

 Anyone interested, can come and see the car and drive it  as much as you would like!  I try to represent my items on EBay the best I can and my feedback reflects that.  I am selling this car for a friend of mine and if you contact me I can forward you his phone number for further questions, or I could answer them myself.  I will also send more picture if needed.

 The bidder is responsible for shipping the car or could come and drive it home.  I can store the car  to allow more time to make arrangements.  Please look at all pictures.

 Please ask questions before bidding!

 A $500.00 deposit is required within 24 hours after the auction.

SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head

Fri, 05 Jul 2013

In 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.

Next Mercedes-Benz GLK to get AMG variant? Not likely...

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

If 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.

New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

Last we heard, the Mercedes-Benz SLC had been put on indefinite hold, but now Car Magazine is reporting that the Porsche 911-fighting "Baby SLS" coupe could be on sale by 2015. Riding on a modified SLS AMG chassis, the smaller and lighter SLC could be priced in the sub-$100,000 price bracket.
We'd already heard that the new car would feature conventional doors (instead of SLS-like gullwing doors), but this report focuses on some of the possible powertrains Mercedes-Benz is likely to use. At launch, the SLC could offer a pair of V8-powered models - a 485-horsepower SLC and a 585-hp SLC S - both being powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. About a year after launch, a new V6 model could emerge giving the SLC an estimated 333 horsepower and its lowest price point.
It also sounds like the car's name hasn't been completely finalized as some people within Mercedes are favoring a return of the SLR name.
