Up for grabs is a 2001 Mercedes S500 with clean title. It starts without a hiccup, drives smooth and transmission auto-shifts like butter.
- The Radio/Navigation is not coming on anymore (since battery replacement earlier in September). It may be something as little as a burnt-out fuse or loose wire(s) in the back. A Mercedes service advisor stated over the phone that the system needs to be reset after the installation of the new battery. In the worst case scenario, original replacement units are available on eBay for under $170, or you may buy an awesome after market touchscreen unit with iPad connection, Bluetooth, CD/DVD/MP3, 2D and 3D GPS navigation, steering wheel control, AUX, SD and USB options for under $660. That's if the problem is a lot more than a fuse or reset.
- Cracked/broken plastic-trim on the driver seat (as shown in one of the images). It does NOT affect the functionality and/or movement of the seat; the seat moves in all directions with the directional controls. You may get a replacement trim from a junk-yard for next to nothing (perhaps $50), if it becomes an eyesore ;-)
- Scratches/scuffing on the front and rear bumpers (as shown in images)
- Scratch below the passenger door (as shown in two images)
- Missing Mercedes emblem on rear passenger wheel (costs approx $20)
- Needs new wipers (costs approx $30)
- The car was professionally detailed recently in September (and the carpets are still in the trunk)
- The battery was replaced earlier in September
- The overall exterior (with the exception of scratches mentioned above) and the interior (except driver seat trim) are very good for the age of the vehicle
- The value of this car, according to Kelley Blue Book (KBB), is:
- $8,692 Retail Excellent Condition
- $6,967 Private Party Excellent Condition
- $6,617 Private Party Very Good Condition
- $6,382 Private Party Good Condition
- Depending on the level of how picky one is, most would rate this car as in a very good to excellent condition

Dartz promises own 6x6 G-Class with golden shishas and a dining room
Mon, 25 Mar 2013So you didn't really think Dartz Motorz was going to let the limited-production, 544-horsepower Mercedes 6x6 G63 AMG go without a challenge, did you? Picking up the gauntlet as only Dartz can, the Russian dream-makers have come up with the Sahara G-eopard, supposedly a special request from a buyer to make one of the 'standard' six-wheelers "more opulent and insane."
That means the vehicle from the factory gets extended by about a foot (30 centimeters), coach doors in the rear, a "yacht floor" and air conditioning that runs on its own power source, Asanti 24-inch Gold Bullion wheels and a water dispenser with Russian diamonds, which the owner will need to fill the golden shishas (hookahs) in the portable smoking room. That's right, you heard the man: a portable smoking room. Where the occupants will retire when they're finished in the portable dining room. Of course.
Yes, it will even have leopard spotting painted onto its nano-coating, and so much more. You can check out the press release below from the source. Try not to be jealous.
Carlsson SLK 340 Judd is winged up for hill climb glory
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Carlsson has been expertly tuning Mercedes-Benz products for more than 20 years now, but we can't say as we remember the outfit turning out anything quite so racy as this SLK 340 Judd that it has brought along to the Geneva Motor Show this year.
This SLK is meant for competition, obviously, and Carlsson has already booked the car to race in several hill climb events in the E1 category. The purpose-built racer should have a fighting chance to do well in said races, with a shape vetted in wind tunnel testing for maximum downforce, the SLK uses a carbon-fiber bodyshell to help achieve a curb weight of just about 1,720 pounds.
The featherweight SLK's name comes from its 3.4-liter V8 engine, which churns out a wicked 610 horsepower to go with its 317 pound-feet of torque. A Hewland transmission with paddle shift operation manages all of the thrust.
The Mansory Speranza proves that money can buy taste and good sense...
Tue, 05 Mar 2013...Just kidding.
No one in their right mind has ever accused German tuners Mansory of being subtle. So, when our Geneva team wandered across the Mansory Speranza - A Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen that has been denuded of its roof and spackled inside with quilted leather and red carbon fiber - they didn't ask a lot of existential questions. Why does the Speranza exist? Because Germans are weird sometimes, that's why.
Forget for a moment that you'll have to pay Mansory hundreds of thousands of euros (we're guessing, no pricing information has been revealed) for the privilege of converting your G-Class into something that looks like a Suzuki Samurai, and prepare to be impressed by the details. The tuning house has increased the output of the Mercedes V8 to a healthy 700 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque. The wheels are 24-inches, and wear almost unbelievable 305-section ultra-high performance Vresdestein tires. Carbon fiber can be found nearly everywhere one looks, including making up the housing for the spare tire. Oh, and there are leather pillows for the backseats... no word on whether they're standard or optional, but we're looking in to it.
