I am selling my 1995 Mercedes Benz S420 with 71,xxx miles on it.

I bought this from the original owner in December of 2012 and I have put a lot of time, effort, and money taking this from a good car to a great car.

The car is not perfect as it is 20 years old but it looks and runs great for its age. There are the normal paint nicks from regular driving that have been touched up with paint.

The car has always been garaged since I have owned it.

Things I have done since owning this car:

Replaced the engine wiring harness (known weakness on these cars)

Tune up

New tires in fall of 2013, roughly 5,000 miles on them now

H&R sport springs and Bilstein Shocks with new rubber shims and tie rod assemblies summer of 2013

Updated the oil level sensor and pressure switch

Regular synthetic oil changes

Comes with extra set of brand new rotors, pads, and wheel bearings

The car does have an aftermarket cd player installed, I will be putting the stock one back in upon sale unless new owner would like to keep the aftermarket one as well as the stock one. No other stereo modifications have been done and the upgraded factory bose system works great.

The air injection pump acts up every now and then, the dealer explained to me this was for emissions upon start up. It does not effect how the car runs and drives. 

I would like to see this go to someone who enjoys big german cars and appreciates them. Any more information you would like please let me know

I will be on vacation from April 5th, 2014 to April 12th, 2014. I will not be able to show the car during these times but I can communicate and answer any questions you have.

Mercedes-Benz intros long-wheelbase E-Class for China

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

Long-wheelbase sedans are a pretty hot commodity in China, and to keep up with the competition, Mercedes-Benz has introduced an extended version of the 2014 E-Class sedan at the Shanghai Motor Show. Audi, BMW, Volvo and even Cadillac offer extended versions of sedans specific to the Chinese market, and now the E-Class L, shown off in E400L guise, will give luxury sedan buyers in China yet another option.
Compared to the standard 2014 E-Class sedan, the new China-spec E-Class L has been stretched by 5.5 inches - all of which goes to the rear-seat passengers. According to an article on China View from earlier in the year, the market for chauffeur-driven cars is growing in the Asian nation, so automakers need long-wheelbase models like the E-Class L in order to fully compete. As for what powers this stretched E-Class, it's available in three models: the diesel E260L, the V6-powered E300L and the E400 Hybrid.
The redesigned E-Class and the all-new A-Class are just the first of 20 new Mercedes-Benz products that will be introduced into the Chinese auto market by 2015. Scroll down for the full press release on long-wheelbase E.

Mercedes S-Class Magic Body Control ad is clucking awesome

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

This is a new ad from Mercedes-Benz. At no point does it show an automobile. Instead, it stars animals, but not the sort you might normally see in car commercial. This ad is all about chickens. It is bizarre, to say the least, with Diana Ross and the Supremes belting it out in the background, but it all kind of comes together when you realize just what Mercedes is hawking (yeah, pun intended).
It's for the manufacturer's Magic Body Control, found on the new S-Class. The system basically analyzes the road and prepares the suspension accordingly, leading to a ride that is, in the words of our own Chris Paukert "nothing short of spooky." You can read about it in our full review of the 2014 S550. Take a look below for the 53-second spot.
