Mercedes CLS Pimped with EXE Wheels

MercedesTalk — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 03:15:15 +0000

It’s been established: the CLS is one heck of a car and it has everything a pimp or a rapper might look for in a car just as much as it’ll please the 60-year old lawyer. It’s versatile and it’s hip.

I’m sure the lawyer wouldn’t go for this rimmed out edition though. Wheels by EXE wheels. Source: The Rimsorizer.

Both Mercedes’ Take off at ‘99 Le Mans

MercedesTalk — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 23:01:15 +0000

First up is the Mark Webber crash, extremely painful when you see the Mercs take off after going over a crest — and even though the first vid doesn’t show Webber crashing, the second one does… That one IS from the actual ‘99 race and my heart still skips a beat when I see that CLR flip over….

Sickening footage!

Mercedes CL550

MercedesTalk — Sat, 31 May 2008 02:28:41 +0000

I was talking to my friend Mike who’s looking to buy a BMW 3-series Coupe, trying to convince him to save a couple more bucks and go for the ever so sexy Mercedes-Benz CL550. I haven’t convinced him just yet — but I’m not giving up. No friend of mine chooses the BMW over the Mercedes. NONE I TELL YA!

Anyway, looking up reasons for him not to buy the beemer made me fall in love with the CL550 all over again. I picked my favorite pics and hope you enjoy them!

1963 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE Cabriolet

MercedesTalk — Thu, 08 May 2008 16:58:06 +0000

This one is for sale at Silver Star Restorations and it’s probably one of the most beautiful 300SE from the sixties I’ve ever laid my eyes on. Being in pure mint condition, its $58,000 price tag is probably very much justified — from the SSR page:

Finished in white with a stunning red leather interior which has the very, very rare front and rear bucket seat option. The wood dash is in great shape, it has power steering and a 4 speed automatic transmission. Like all 300 series cars from the 60’s, it has the Bosch air suspension which gives this great automobile superior road holding capabilities. Powered with a 3 liter engine, this car will cruise today’s highway speeds with no trouble.

If only I had the dough…

Mercedes-Benz Safety Vid

MercedesTalk — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 15:12:51 +0000

I realize this is Mercedes-Benz trying to take a bite from Volvo’s “safety”-market segment, and I actually like the idea behind the video they put together — but it kind of cheesy, isn’t it?

Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing

MercedesTalk — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 15:06:21 +0000

This is by far the most classic Mercedes-Benz ever to have hit the streets. I haven’t spoken to a single car enthusiast that’s not 100% in love with this car — and rightfully so! It’s ingenious fuel injection system, its trademark doors, its Le Mans win… They all make this car a true classic in automotive history.

I went and made a selection of the 10 most beautiful photos I could find of this beauty. Enjoy them!

2009 Mercedes SL

MercedesTalk — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 04:41:59 +0000

This video report from the 2008 Geneva Motor Show about the 2009 Mercedes SL (a facelift version, which doesn’t change too much to the previous model if you ask me) shows a little too much of the show host and way too little of the SL, but still, what they show looks good.

The SL isn’t as glamorous as its original 1954 grandfather — but still quite awesome!

Enjoy them, I promise loads more on MercedesTalk.net!
