Up for sale is my '98 Mercedes C43 AMG, white with the Black with blue inserts interior. I've owned it just about 3 years now. Great car but I travel extensively now and recently bought a truck to run to the airport and let sit outside instead.

Car had 101K when I purchased it 3 years ago. Only repair item has been a new waterpump, belt and idler/tensioner pulleys around 115K.

Tires at 113K. New front pads recently. New front rotors when I purchased the car because MD Inspection said they were "too thin". Paint is excellent. NO RUST! Not a bit. Interior is 9/10 only because the headliner is sagging on the sunroof cover. Otherwise, all leather is 100% and carpets are excellent and doorpanels are perfect. Comes with a set of original AMG floormats but the driver's one is pretty shot so I haven't used them.

Car had the optional Cellphone which I have removed and comes with the car. I also replaced the factory radio with a Clarion Unit with Bluetooth. Original radio comes with the car and OEM CD Changer is still in the trunk. Clarion head unit is still running through the factory BOSE audio system.

Engine oil changed regularly and only Mobil 1 Zero weight oil is used and Mahle filters.

Body is perfect (for a '98 - not counting a couple little paint chips here and there) with the exception of the front bumper. I hit a small animal on the way to the airport about a 1 1/2 years ago and the "bow" insert popped out and is gone. cracked some of the supports but not visible unless you are on the ground. I recently put in a row of LED lights on each side in the space that my kids gave me for Christmas.

Only two issues currently -

1) the sunroof opens but does not close. I think it's the motor or connection to the motor. I don't use anyway.

2) the knob is off the passenger door. Its in the glove box and doesn't affect operation of the locks. I happened when my wife was using the car with the kids so maybe they pulled up on the lock and it stripped off. I think the door needs to come off to relocate it and I haven't taken the time since it doesn't affect the locks.

Awhile ago I recorded a run from Zero-120 to show that it accelerates properly and, based on the rough numbers, I'd say it's pulling the same numbers as stock. Engine runs great.

European automakers gear up for Brazilian production

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

Brazil is the place to be, apparently. Toyota has been investing in the South American country, as has BMW, which announced a $261 million investment in October 2012, on the heels of an Audi factory announcement in San José Chiapa. The high-end immigration is only set to continue, as Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar-Land Rover have both announced plans to set up manufacturing operations there.
Mercedes is the big news here, as its new facility will see the German manufacturer invest 170-million euros for production of its next-generation C-Class and upcoming GLA-Class. "Brazil is an important future market. With our local production we accept the challenge and take on the competition," noted Andreas Renschler, Management Board member for Production and Procurement at Mercedes-Benz Cars and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Production is expected to begin by 2016.
Jaguar-Land Rover, meanwhile, isn't so concrete in its plans. The news of its investment in South America comes from a job posting for a plant quality manager in Brazil that was picked up by the UK's AutoCar. "Portuguese language skills will be definite advantage" for interested candidates, according to the job listing. The want ad follows on the heels of remarks by Jaguar Land Rover's Dr. Ralph Speth, who said there are "very intensive discussions" with Brazil's government. Unlike Mercedes, there's no mention of which vehicles will be produced in South America, although AutoCar thinks the Freelander, sold in the US as the LR2, is a leading contender.

Mercedes to market Tesla-powered 2014 B-Class EV in U.S.

Thu, 05 Jul 2012

Looks like another Tesla Motors investor will be looking to cash in on their connection. Autoweek reports Mercedes-Benz will offer their B-Class in the U.S. with Tesla propulsion.
The magazine says their source at the German automaker confirms plans for a B-Class electric-only vehicle. While Tesla already provides battery packs for the battery-powered Smart ForTwo, the B-Class EV will reportedly have Tesla batteries, motor and other components. U.S. residents should be able to procure one sometime in 2014.
The same Mercedes source says plans for a hybrid B-Class have been postponed for now. Adding a range-extending, gasoline-powered engine to an electric vehicle would put the car into a different class for which rebates and incentives aren't as favorable in the States.

Aston or Bust? Maybach's fate to be decided next month

Mon, 13 Jun 2011

2011 Maybach 62 - Click above for high-res image gallery
What will become of Maybach? That question has been rattling around the halls of Daimler headquarters in Stuttgart for some time now. But all questions will be answered, and answered soon: according to reports, the German automaker is currently evaluating prototypes and propositions for its top-end marque, and will make its decision next month.
So, what are the options? On the one hand, Daimler could kill the Maybach brand altogether. It was a notion ill conceived and even more poorly executed, taking an old platform and building a new flagship atop it. In that way, it was sort of like the Chrysler Crossfire, only far more costly to both the buyer and manufacturer. On the other hand, Daimler could opt for the long-time-coming proposition of contracting the production (and possibly much of the development) of a new generation of Maybachs to Aston Martin.
