A Modern Classic at only $9850 – 1995 E320 Convertible The Mercedes aficionado knows that this generation of 4-seat mid-size convertible may have been the best built in
the modern era. A much stronger, smoother car than the later CLK, the E320 ‘cabriolet’ is a
timeless classic but fully usable today. The car is quite when the padded, power top is up, but positively
uncanny in its lack of turbulence or noise when driving with the top down, in part thanks to the included wind deflector.
This car had been well-maintained, with only 100,500 miles since new. The seats look new and the
fresh repaint in original Brilliant Silver shines like a new car. A 6cd changer is in the trunk.
A ‘must see’ car that will yield years of extraordinary driving pleasure for a very reasonable investment. See more pictures at http://www2.snapfish.com/thumbnailshare/AlbumID=254639638/a=162960395_162960395/otsc=SHR/otsi=SALBlink/COBRAND_NAME=snapfish
Unbelievable! A G-wagen cabriolet- $20,000 Perhaps one of a mere handful in the US. A crazy fun vehicle with 4 wheel dive and TRIPLE locking differentials! The Gwagen was designed as the NATO version of the Hummer, so its never been more true that this is a Mercedes that is "built like a tank". This particular vehicle was the featured attraction at the 1991 Milan (Italy) Auto Show, to introduce the last redesign of the Gwagen series - the 462. Because it was intended for street use it Italy, it features a tax-beating and fuel saving 2.0l I-4 engine and a 5speed manual transmission. In need of some minor cosmetic refurbishment, it is the ultimate addition to any collector of Mercedes vehicles or just someone who wants a truly unique and truly fun vehicle. It is sold on Georgia registration.
The best of the BEST! 1971 280 SE 3.5 Cabriolet - $75,000 What can I say about the fantastic 111 series, especially the Cabriolet. What makes a top-drawer classic? Desirability? Yes the 3.5 has it like few others! Rarity? Yep, less than 1500 made! Curb appeal? Well, judge for yourself! This particular car was born as a coupe, but converted to a cabrio in Germany in the mid 1970s using only authentic, original Mercedes Benz parts. Therefore i looks and functions exactly like an original cabrio, with only a single digit in the VIN to tell the tale. But for the smart buyer, that means a savings of $50 to 75,000 over an original cabrio. On top of that, the ultra discriminating buyer will find that this was as a phenomenally thorough restoration that would cost $75,000 in and of itself, with particular attention paid to how the car performs as well as how it looks. Call now before it slips away...
1996 S500 sedan - a smooth operator, indeed - $7995 This is a great survivor - a one owner car that was well cared for all its life only to suffer the ignominy of having a tree branch fall on its roof, producing an ugly, but not real obvious dent right above the rear windshield. In every other regard the car is really wonderful - roomy, comfortable, quiet, and with a presence that maybe even the new S-class cannot rival. A complete service history is available for examination. At only 142,000 miles, this car can carry a family in style for another decade easily.
1999 GMC Suburban SLT in remarkable condition - $6995 This one-owner, local Suburban looks and performs half its age. We know that many family SUVs end up getting 'ridden hard and put up wet', literally sucking the value out of them. This amazing specimen has clearly been babied all its life - how else can you explain the paint that looks like new (not to mention no body repairs, ever!), bumpers that are straight as an arrow, and a soft leather interior without any cuts, stains, or abrasions.. It has the preferred package with all the goodies, like 8 passenger seating, CD, compass, rear heating and air-conditioning, running boards, and two package. The aficionados of the brand claim this generation 1500 truck wi easily do a quarter million miles, so with only 102k on the clock, this truck has a long way to go, for very little money!

2004 Mercedes C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan - $14,490 The C230 Kompressor has been a strong favorite for a decade, combining the aggressive
looks and handling of the Sport package (with its lowered suspension and wide 17" 5-spoke wheels) with the economy and
great acceleration of the supercharged 4-banger (with 30+ MPG easily attained, but with a wonderful mid-range power lunge).
This handsome example has only 63,000 miles and is in ready to go condition with fresh tires, good brakes, and the 60K service
complete. It also has the glovebox-mounted CD changer. Go to http://s729.photobucket.com/albums/ww295/jbirdga/2004%20C230/ for more views.
2003 Porsche 911Turbo with X50 - the ultimate "Driver's Car"?- $67,850 A very rare and special car. The legendary 911 Turbo, the 4wd terror of the autobahn, in this case with the X50 option, boosting horsepower to 450! Like all true sports cars, you shif it yourself through Zuffenhausen's silky 6-speed box. Premium leather and drover's lumbar round out the essential options on this serious "driver's car". The mileage is a low. low 9300, consequence of a mature owner for whom the car was a weekend tourer, used considerately and keep up properly. The asking price is roughly half the original sticker representing a fantastic value for the buyer. Rev it up at http://s729.photobucket.com/albums/ww295/jbirdga/Porsche%20Turbo/
2000 BMW 528 Sport Touring with Style, Stance, and Practicality - $8990 Talk about "stance" - to me, few 'practical'
cars look bolder than my 2000 528 Sport Wagon. And realistically, few cars are truly more practical! This wagon, after all,
holds more than an X5, but has that tight handling that made it the "Ultimate Driving Machine". And its certainly
a lot easier to load, on the roof or in the back, than a SUV. The M-sports package is the key ingredient transforming this
car from mundane to exciting, with its 17" BBSs, lowered ride height, and special interior trim, including the Black
"baby grand" wood in this car. The car has a clean accident history and excellent service record. The miles are
low for its age (112,xxx) and its mechanical condition has been Inspected and Certified. The paint is excellent and original
and the interior is virtually flawless! A true Must See for someone looking for Sportiness with upscale practicality. But
be prepared to stand out in a crowd - everywhere I go, people will walk across the street to compliment me on this car! http://s729.photobucket.com/albums/ww295/jbirdga/2000%20528%20wagon/ will show you more.
2003 M-B C320 Sedan - power and style - $13,990Inspected, Certified and a dream to drive! This rare C320 Sport Sedan is a much better driver that the more common
C240 (with its undersized 6 cylinder engine) or the C230 (with a hard working 1.8l 4-banger!). And in addition to the robust
but efficient (24mpg+) 3.2 V6 engine, the upscale 320 package includes full-power front seats with memory on both sides, an
11-speaker (sub-woofered) Bose "Ambient" surroundsound system, and the very attractive and traditional Burl Walnut
interior trim. This car also features AMG-style 17" "twin spoke" alloys with very fresh V-rated tires. The
6-disc changer is in the glovebox and the stereo can inexpensively upgraded for iPod. The windows are professionally tinted
to legal specs. The car recently received its major (60K) service including new front rotors and pads. See
2000 528 Touring - the active lifestyle solution at $8990 This beautiful 'sportwagen' is the perfect option for the person or family with an active lifestyle, but an urban existence. With as much cargo capacity as most mid-sized SUVs, the wagon still maintains its sedan-like performance and handling. That makes it much easier to drive and park, as well as to load, especially the accessible roof rack! Fuel economy is great and the ride and comfort are pure luxury car. And with only 99,xxx miles on the clock and new tires on the ground, you can buy this car with the certainty it will serve you well for years and years to come, despite its amazingly low 'sticker' of only $9k. This is definitely one of those "must see to appreciate" experiences!
2002 BMW 530i Sport Sedan - Color and Condition are Tops - $11590 Many BMW aficionados agree that the E39 5-series may have been the best 5-series ever, certainly more attractive than its successor and probably more true to the "Ultimate Driving Machine" goal. And the best expression of this generation of 5 was the Sport version, like this car, especially with the power upgrade of the strong and smooth inline 6 to the 3.0l. What I like best of all, however, about this car is its rare and very attractive color - most importantly, it is NOT SILVER! Everywhere I drive this car, I never fail to get a compliment on the Sterling Gray exterior color, especially teamed with the Dove Gray interior. I'm sure the rarity of the color has a lot to do with why people respond so well to it, but the outstanding condition of the paint really helps, too. I also upgraded the Xenon bulbs to the 10K color, which looks more like what the '08s and '09s are like. The car has the "Business" CD player as well as pre-wiring for the changer, so an upgrade to iPod integration will be easy. The tires are very fresh as are the brakes. We just did new wipers and an oil change with premium synthetic. The windows are mildly tinted, which also helps set off the paint. Mileage is right on target at 118,600 (though who'd guess that). All the major tuning and upgrades (torque converter, oil seperator, new key) have been done, so if you know your BMWs, you know you can buy this one with confidence. Overall a really great driving, super looking car that will never embarrass you (and you don't have to tell anyone how little you spent on it!).

1999 C280 Luxury Version - $6490 Is there a better one out there? You decide! I'm amazed by the condition, cosmetically and mechanically, of this car - it's 11 years old and has 129,800 miles for goodness sakes! But with the exception of one small bumper smudge, the body and paint on this car are near flawless, with zero accident history. We’ve gone through the engine, transmission, and electrical on the car and everything is in 100% operating order, as the extensive service history would indicate. The 2.8 V6 just purrs until woken up, at which point acceleration is smooth and swift. Of course, it is cram packed with contemporary safety equipment - bags, ABS, Traction Control, pretensioning seat belts, safety steering column, etc, etc. The full leather interior is soft and looks like new. A rare added bonus is folding rear seats, allowing an easy doubling of cargo space. The newish Michelins are good for at least 30k. It is a one-owner Alabama car, so no corrosion issues. Its obviously been well cared for all its life. I just don't think you can buy more car for the money! |
