2013 Mercedes-benz Gl-class Gl550 on 2040-cars
Moulton, Alabama, United States
Up for consideration is a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL550.
It runs and operates exactly as Mercedes-Benz intended. There are no funny noises, no driving quirks and certainly
no drips or leaks. No warning lights. All maintenance is current. It is an absolute pleasure to drive. If you
didn't know, you'd think it was a brand new SUV from the way it drives and operates. Truly, it's that nice. It is
a true testament to Mercedes quality.
Everything, and I mean everything, works exactly as Mercedes' designers and engineers intended.
The seats are in gray leather. The front seats are heated, air conditioned and are massaging! They, of course,
have memory and lumbar support. The wood trim is honest-to-goodness genuine burl walnut. No cheap plastic here!
The third-row seats have Mercedes' EASY-ENTRY™ feature. The second- and third-row seats fold flat and the second
row has the optional pass-through feature. The four doors have the cool soft-close feature. No need to slam 'em!
Just give the doors a gentle touch and they pull themselves closed and latched securely.
There is Bluetooth interface for hands-free calling. Bluetooth connectivity for audio streaming. MP3 media
interface. Mercedes' COMMAND™ navigation. A color display central controller. Equipped with harmon/kardon
LOGIC7™ surround sound with 830 watts stereo output. The car also has the rear seat entertainment system with
headphones that is a $1,950 extra-cost option. Two 115-volt AC power outlets. The car has a changeable ambient
lighting package for the interior.
There is a 360-degree surround view camera system. (You'll never again skin your front bumper on a curb with this
feature!) Anti-theft alarm system. Automatically folding outside rearview mirrors. Unlock and lock doors with
the wave of your hand. Power liftgate. ISOFIX™ (for child safety seats) anchoring on all rear seats.
One of the nicest features the SUV has is the Driver Assist Package™, a $1,950 option. This includes DISTRONIC
PLUS™ (with PRE-SAFE™ brakes) active blind spot assist and active lane-keeping assist. (I have actually tested
the braking feature by taking my hands off the steering wheel and my foot off the brake pedal and have come up at
35 mph behind cars stopped at a traffic light and the car stayed in the lane and came to a full stop without me
ever touching the brake pedal!!! Scary? YES! But way cool!

Carlsson turns Mercedes-Benz SLK into 610-HP hill-climb clawer
Mon, 28 Jan 2013Carlsson's race-tuned versions of the Mercedes-Benz SLK have been taking checkered flags for years, and we won't be surprised if its SLK 340 hill climber fares any different. Developed by multiple German and Swiss hill climb champion Reto Meisel, the carbon-bodied SLK 340 with lightweight brakes and a closed underbody weighs 1,716 pounds. Propelling that tiny bit of weight is a 3.4-liter V8 from Judd with 610 horsepower, and it rolls on 18-inch wheels shod in Avon tires.
It will debut at the Geneva Motor Show before beginning its racing campaigns in the summer. This one won't just tear up roads in Europe, though - Meisel says he plans on bringing it to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The press release below has more details.
Watch this perfectly nice Mercedes get crushed by a front-end loader
Mon, 25 Mar 2013In a world where the YouTube hoax continues to thrive, it's hard to know what to think of this little vid, but here are the facts as we know them: a coupe that looks like a first-generation Mercedes-Benz CLK gets crushed by a giant front-end loader. There you have it.
Our questions arise in the aftermath - we know industrial resource machinery is heavy, but the Benz gets squashed so flat we wonder if someone's trying to play a joke on us. We hear that the white coupe may have been the heavy-equipment operator's foreman's car, but who knows? The on-camera interview seems awfully conveniently placed, yes? See for yourself in the video below and then leave us your thoughts in Comments.
X1, 3 Series power BMW back into global luxury autos sales lead
Thu, 14 Mar 2013BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase of 40 percent in February while the company's bread-and-butter 3 Series jumped by 26 percent.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to stem its continued market share loss with the addition of the entry-level CLA sedan to its portfolio in April. The company is set to roll out an updated version of its cash-cow E-Class at the same time, and a new-generation S-Class will follow along shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, the company is increasing production to meet demand for its A and B-Class models.
