Welcome to a great opportunity. You are viewing an extremely attractive, low mileage and exclusively Florida-kept 1997 Mercedes-Benz S500 Luxury Touring Sedan. This is a RARE car...not only is the S500 the most desirable of all the S-classes, but with only 88,000 original, sunny South Florida miles, and this color combination, this is a great find. This S500 is elegant, classy, extra-clean and has been maintained wonderfully. It has remained a Florida vehicle its entire life...and it certainly shows. Only two owners since new, and the same owner. and residing in Boca Raton, Florida since 2004! He has had the pleasure of driving this vehicle, and pride in ownership is evident everywhere you look. From its nearly new-looking interior, to its flawless operation, to its stunning good looks. Many consider this model year that last TRUE year that Mercedes built their best cars. Sure, the new ones have a lot more gadgets and electronics, and comfort items....(and let's face it, are faster and more powerful). But when it comes to bullet-proof durability and timeless style. This one gets the prize. Our certified MB technician looked over this car front to back, inside and out, and when we came to pick it up from its oil change and service, all he said was "Wow" "If you don't sell it on eBay, let me know and I'd like to buy it from you" Hows that for a seal of approval! Without a doubt this is the best color combination for this classy sedan. High-gloss Black over Light Beige leather, with rich wood interior trim, this luxury touring sedan scream West Palm Beach Social! This S500 is an absolute pleasure to drive. The long wheel-base design provides an exceptional ride and the quietness of the cabin really puts a punctuation mark on the true craftsmanship that goes into making a top-level S-class. This is a world-class automobile....in 1997, and 2014! The exterior is in excellent condition. No dents or parking lot door dings, and the brilliant finish is beautiful. Loaded with everything (including heated seats), and it runs and drives superbly. This MB S500 has plenty of power from its monstrous 5.0 liter electronically fuel-injected V8 powerplant and has significantly more power than its S320 and S430 siblings (we know because we've had a couple of those in inventory over the past few month's as well!). And this powerplant is much more durable. Taking nothing away from those two engines and powerplants, but the 5.0 liter has been a staple in the Mercedes factory line-up for years and years and is legendary, both in performance and durability. Purrrs like a kitten.....but opens up like a tiger (a tamed tiger) when you hit the gas pedal. Everything works perfectly and properly, and we have just serviced this car. Its been garaged, and most likely the main reason for its excellent condition. The previous owner obviously loved their car, and it has been maintained extremely well. Carefully owned and maintained, all she needs is a new home. Again, only 88,000 original fair-weather miles. The interior is extra-clean. The leather seats look fantastic, as does the carpet, dash and headliner. The original wood looks phenomenal. This car has never been smoked in. Full power option, including power sunroof, dual 10-way adjustable power seats, Premium audio system, cruise control, power windows and locks, and factory security system. Imagine all the enjoyment you will have with this exquisite and classy sedan, while still driving one of the safest vehicles on the road. It even has a complete set of nearly new Michelin All-season radials all the way around. The previous owner cared for their car, and also put the best tires on it. This should clearly tell you something about the type of person he was when it came to his vehicle. Offered for auction at a fraction of its original $72,355 price tag when new. The mileage is incredibly low at only 88,501 (that's less than 4,500 miles per year folks), and these were sunny South Florida miles--Believe me, it makes a BIG difference! No harsh climate, no harsh roads, no salt, no snow, no hills, etc....You should be getting the picture. This was nearly the last model year for this classic and timeless bodystyle before they ruined it! Just ask any true MB enthusiast! This car drives like a dream. Smooth, quiet, powerful and tight. Just a pleasure to drive, each and every time you get in it. With only 88,000 original miles, this S500 is just getting broken in. We are running this auction for 7 days with No Reserve. That's right, the savviest bidder gets the pleasure of owning this wonderful automobile. Where on earth are you going to find another one like this? Answer" Probably no where. This is a rare, rare find. And it is in great condition, with great original mileage and a well-maintained service history. The only thing we would like to mention is that the front bumper has a little bit of scuff on the left front corner, obviously due to its age. However minor, we would like to mention it. While it certainly looks fine, and some people wouldn't mind it at all, the rest of the car is so extra-nice, I would spend the $100-150 making it perfect. We can do this at the winning bidder's request, if desired. Absolutely crystal clean CarFax and AutoCheck, reports with absolutely no title problems or accident history of any kind. While most S500 of this model year score a low of 15, and a high of 36 grade (for really nice ones), according to AutoCheck....This one scored a 75! WOW! We are happy to assist with transport within the Continental US, and free airport pick-up is available from Jacksonville International Airport. We list our vehicles to sell, and many sell with just a simple phone call to our sales associate. Don't miss out on this one. You will be an excited new owner! No disappointments.Please feel free to call or e-mail us and enjoy a wonderful buying experience. 561.283.9511 ask for Steve. We are also including all the original books, manuals and supplements that came with this car when new. Please feel free to call for more details or a walk around the vehicle. We do charge a nominal $299 dealer fee added to each purchase. Good Luck to everyone bidding. Bid with confidence and Bid to win! |

Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo
Fri, 15 Mar 2013To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.
2013 Airstream Interstate 3500 EXT
Mon, 19 Aug 2013LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.
2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.
