In 1961, the Checker Motors Corporation, makers of the ubiquitous Checker cab, decided – for whatever reason – to offer a civilian version to private buyers. Called the Superba, you won’t be surprised to learn it was a complete financial flop. Checker went back to making taxi cabs, no doubt thankful they didn’t try to market a civilian hearse instead.

The two reasons why you would want to install a set of alloy wheels on your Mercedes are simple: you want to either reduce the weight of your car resulting in an increase in performance and fuel efficiency of you want to up the style quotient of your Mercedes.

The base models will come with a conventional steel suspension, while optional goodies include a sports suspension with harder springs and dampers and the Dynamic Handling Package with continuous adjustable damping, further refined by a better steering system and torque vectoring brakes.
In conclusion, The Mercedes SLK 350 is not my type of car. It's not an exciting drive in the sense that a Caterham or a TVR is exciting and it's not comfortable like some of it's bigger brothers. I think this car is targeted at the 50+ female driver who does not want to drive quickly and is more interested in the look rather than build quality and performance.

Really Coming In the U.S. the new generation 2012 Mercedes SLK.
0 comments Posted by kanjengngawen at 10:02 PMIn the U.S., the new generation of Merc's roadster model will be offered in two variants, the 302HP SLK 350 (0-60mph in 5.4 sec) and the 201HP 1.8-liter four-cylinder SLK 250 (0-60mph in 6.5 sec, 27mpg combined with the standard 6-speed manual gearbox).
The car's suspension is very hard and is set up in such a way that hard driving into corners will produce a little initial under-steer followed by very controllable over-steer. The suspension is, in my opinion, just too hard for everyday use.

Keep it brief. A powerful affirmation should be brief and precise, so that it's easy to remember. Like an advertising jingle.Make it specific. It is more powerful to add details to the affirmations. "I am enjoying driving my new silver coloured Mercedes Benz CLS 63 AMG" instead of: "I'm driving in my new car".

Mercedes-Benz is also offering the world's first direct-injection gasoline engine with a spray-guided combustion process for the 3.5-liter V6 engine under the hood of the CLS 350 CGI. As a result of this innovative powertrain technology, the Mercedes CLS 350 CGI pumps out additional horsepower and torque output, and boost the vehicle's performance while improving the fuel efficiency.

A powerful affirmation should describe what you want as if you already have it, and as if it is already accomplished.State the affirmation in the positive. Affirm what you want, and not what you don't want. Our unconscious mind do not understand the word "no" or "not". If you say: " I no longer feel stressed out", your mind will hear: "I feel stressed out"!

2012 the Mercedes CLS is particularly high in the U.S.
0 comments Posted by kanjengngawen at 7:44 PMMake the powerful affirmations for yourself. Make the affirmations describe your own behaviour or situation, not others. Don't affirm: "My husband now treats me with respect and love" Instead say: "I'm now living in a loving and respectful marriage"!

In addition, in an official company press released, Mercedes-Benz reports that:
"Demand for the CLS is particularly high in the U.S., where about 27,000 units have been sold since the vehicle was introduced to the market in January 2005. The second most important market for the four-door coupe is Germany accounting for about 20 percent of global sales. The most popular engine version in Germany last year was the CLS 320 CDI, which was chosen by more than half of the customers."

When it comes to leasing a car, it makes little difference whether you want the most run-of-the-mill Ford Fiesta or a full blown Mercedes SLK. In fact, when it comes to the higher end brands such as Mercedes, BMW, Audi and so on, contract hire makes even more sense. Why spend tens of thousands buying your dream car outright when it would be much more affordable and beneficial to pay for it monthly?

Mercedes SLS AMG Gullwing: Okay, there has to be at least one car on the list that most people can't afford. A seven speed automatic, 563 horsepower, and a host of standards - backup camera, satellite radio, power-folding mirrors, and of course the retro Gullwing style, make this a true collector's item. The price of $185,575, however, along with its $1700 gas-guzzler tax put it out of range for most of us.

This year's edition of the Paris Motor Show is probably the "greenest" yet. But since we're talking about a full fledged car show, the gas guzzling supercars are still the main attractions. Dozens of press conferences, unveilings of both concepts and new models that are already being manufactured, triumphant speeches and talks on the crises in the industry - all these mix under the roof of the Paris Expo.

The Mercedes Benz C230 is a solid luxury car which belongs to the Mercedes Benz division of the Daimler AG. The C320 is one of the versions of Mercedes Benz compact executive-sized sedan C-Class series. This car was first introduced in 1997 and was manufactured as a sports-oriented vehicle in year 1999 and 2000. The C320 versions of the C-Class are quite reliable vehicles but with a few electrical problems.2011 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG Photos
1997 Models: In some cases the EC indicator of the 1997 C320, lighted up and lead into problems relating to air conditioner refrigerant. This can be easily repaired by replacing the refrigerant pressure sensor.
1998 Models: Some 1998 C-Class models like C320 were fitted with batteries from popular car accessory producer Hoppecke. Later, these batteries caused huge problems in the car. The schedule of maintenance of the battery may be less than it required to keep the correct electrolyte levels that the element required. When the electrolyte level was low, it resulted in speeding up of battery grid growth, which in turn increased the chances of battery damage, flashing and bursting. The dealers will replace the battery under the factory recall. They will also fix a schedule to the battery chamber so that you don't forget about its maintenance.

Fortunately for Mercedes, that's not the case with the drivetrain as the 4.038mm long BC301Z hatchback will be offered in China with a choice of two Mitsubishi-sourced gasoline engines, a 1.3-liter unit linked to a five-speed manual and a 1.5-liter powerplant hooked up to a CVT. The five-door model will be followed next year by a four-door sedan (BC302Z) and station wagon (BC303Z) variant.

The Mercedes B-Class, a line of compact cars about the size of a Volkswagen Golf, is expected to be imported to the U.S. market within one or two years time. This model is unusual in that it will be the first vehicle marketed by Mercedes in the U.S. that is not a true luxury car. Instead, the German automaker is hoping to capitalize on its venerable name by serving a greater share of the American populace by marketing a more ordinary model. Soon after the B-Class' debut, yet another small vehicle derived from Mercedes will also make its appearance in the U.S.: the Dodge Hornet. Both the B-Class and Hornet are being developed to revolutionize their respective brands, pitting DaimlerChrysler against some of the leading youth brands in the world.

Mercedes has long looked at the entire U.S. auto market as fair game, meaning it is not just a place where it can sell luxury vehicles, but a place to market "low budget" vehicles too. Unknown to some American motorists, the Mercedes name is much broader than simply being a luxury make. Like its German rival, Volkswagen, Mercedes sells cars in Europe that compete directly against the Golf as well as against the luxurious VW Phaeton. Still, introducing a "budget Benz" to America is a psychological hurdle that parent DaimlerChrysler is delaying making a commitment to. Let's take a look at the proposed B Class and the reasons why the model not make it to the U.S. anytime soon.


Yes, the B-Class is poised to change the way American consumers think about the Mercedes brand while giving the make a chance to capture a broader chunk of the market. With the Hornet deriving its platform and other key components from the B-Class, Dodge will also benefit and be able to holds its own against Asian imports. Yes, both products present risky moves for parent DaimlerChrysler, one that the automaker must take in an ever changing and highly competitive world.

On the flip side, a feature which is easily obvious is the first-rate price tag. The original Mini was marketed to customers on a budget, while the Beetle and the Fiat 500 were made as cars for postwar people. Their revived versions are nowhere near cheap. They're mostly for fashion.

The gearbox is a dual clutched affair which works notably well. There's a slight delay whenever you flick the paddles yet in general it feels very responsive and sharp. The car is quite definitely rear wheel drive. The seating position is very back and harks back to old school, honest GT's and blended with the sharp steering you've whole faith in exactly where the front of the vehicle is gonna go. This super car can easily go round edges very, very quick - in case you try hard enough you could actually compete with a four-wheel drive 911 Turbo. It's also really quick in a straight line - indeed outstanding for a heavy, front engined Grand Tourer.

The Mercedes is a classic, conservative looking sedan. This vehicle goes to great lengths to distinguish its Mercedes styling elements such as the broad chrome grill as well as the dual headlights. Due to these being copied by many different automakers, these features come off looking a bit more generic than they should. The overall profile of this vehicle comes off as being German, which no other brand out there has been able to capture.

With the reduction of prices of redesigned model of Mercedes-Benz E63 people were saying that there must have done some sacrifice in quality to achieve the price break but these words seem wasted as no quality is sacrificed. The new E class is now commendable handler with a communicative steering to boot. There is no doubt that 2010 E-class is the world-class automobile that the Mercedes represented. We can say that E-class has the same power but with new feel. It has BMW like steering accuracy and it is the most complex mid size lineup ever produced by German automaker. Mercedes has succeeded to offer more innovative safety technology than any competitor.
