1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Cabriolet. This is an original US-delivered 3.5 Convertible, professionally restored in the correct factory ‘mittelblau’ metallic blue over Saddle Roser leather interior with burl-walnut trim and a contrasting Haartz blue convertible top, the results are nothing short of stunning. this car has factory-installed Behr air-conditioning, a Becker Europa radio, dash-mounted clock, power-windows, vacuum-operated power locks and much more.Mechanics, as described above, this Mercedes is a fantastic running and driving car. There aren't any apparent mechanical flaws and it's obvious that this car's been well maintained and restored to a very high standard. The suspension and shocks feel very good and the tires have plenty of tread. Watch the video below to see this 280 accelerate to 60 MPH. Notice that there is no hesitation in shifting and no vibration in the wheel. I sustain a good speed on a small two-lane road, then slow down and turn at a traffic light. Pay close attention to how quiet the car is while running and while braking, you can clearly hear the "tock, tock" of the turn signal and no problematic noises.Exterior, Exceptional! As detailed in the pics below, this cabriolet has been restored to a very high standard and has seen little use since. The paint, top, glass and chrome are all wonderful.

Mercedes-AMG teases GT interior, announces fall 2014 debut
Tue, 15 Apr 2014Mercedes-Benz opted to tease the assembled media at its post-New York Auto Show party, showing off a pair of images of the exquisitely crafted interior of the highly anticipated successor of the SLS AMG - the V8-powered Mercedes-AMG GT.
Slated for a debut in the fall at either Paris or Los Angeles (we're betting Paris), you'll note straight away that there's something wrong with this car's name. Where's the "Benz?" Well, it's been ditched to, as Mercedes says, "make the dream of the authentic Mercedes-AMG sports car come true." Sorry Karl.
"The new Mercedes-AMG GT proves that we will be positioning AMG as a dynamic sports car brand even more strongly and aggressively than before," said Tobias Moers, CEO of Mercedes-AMG.
Popular Science magazine's Best Of What's New 2012 all ate up with cars
Tue, 20 Nov 2012Popular Science has named the winners in its Best of What's New awards, the victors coming in the categories of aerospace, automotive, engineering, entertainment, gadgets, green, hardware, health, home, recreation, security and software. The automotive category did not go wanting for lauded advancements:
Tesla Model S: the Grand Award winner for being "the standard by which all future electric vehicles will be measured."
BMW 328i: it's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets called out for being more powerful and frugal than the six-cylinder it replaces.
New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC
Sat, 02 Feb 2013Last 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.
