23 CommentsPosted as: ClearPOST COMMENT August 2nd, 2023 at 6:51pm ESTscottst (4) 1These are great cars. Pro tip: It has launch control. Simply rev to only 1800 RPM (peak torque) with foot on brake. Release brake suddenly and you will get 2 honest car lengths of scratch and annoy everyone in the neighborhood, and scare everyone standing nearby. For you it's controllable, fun and just a hoot. Gramma ready to run over a reindeer... the 4matic cars can't do this.August 2nd, 2023 at 6:04pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 0Thank you so much to everyone else who bid: this was my first auction ever and quite an eye opener 🤣 Cheers, Alabaster August 2nd, 2023 at 5:43pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 0@Rhuurman congratulations, you got a fantastic deal on a great carAugust 2nd, 2023 at 5:41pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 1@Leonator134 if you had placed a bid it'd have likely gone to youAugust 2nd, 2023 at 5:33pm ESTLeonator134 (0) 0Did it sell or was Reserve not met?

I'm still here in case anyone has questions, the reserve is low but it is in the teens. Good luck!August 2nd, 2023 at 4:54pm EST$9,000 bid placed by @OMdriverAugust 2nd, 2023 at 4:54pm EST$8,750 bid placed by @Leonator134August 2nd, 2023 at 4:53pm EST$8,500 bid placed by @OMdriverAugust 2nd, 2023 at 4:31pm ESTMSerpe (33) 0@Alabaster Now that IS an HONEST!! explanation lol Thank you August 2nd, 2023 at 12:50pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 2FWIW I am extremely sensitive to smells: I don't allow fabric softeners or scented detergent in the laundry, nor candles nor air fresheners in the house or any of my cars. Believe it or not I am so weird about smells that I actively avoid walking down the detergent aisle at the supermarket and order unscented Biokleen detergent in bulk from Amazon. The only thing I've ever used to clean the interior surfaces is 3M glass cleaner and a microfiber towel. The interior has never seen armor all or any other similar product. She smells like a middle aged Mercedes and nothing else. They are all I drive, other than a Chevy Caprice PPV which I bought because I always wanted to own something with an LS Engine. August 2nd, 2023 at 12:28pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 2Yes, it has been smoked in exactly one time: my brother was smoking a joint in the back seat of the car, the windows were open halfway and I was driving. A burning ember fell out, landed on the middle seat cushion and he wasn't quick enough in grabbing it. I am certain that was the only time the car has been smoked in. I was furious and it never happened again. I don't smoke weed and didn't think such things could happen but apparently if you don't roll the joint tight enough sometimes a burning ember can fall out. It had been an extremely stressful trip to see our dad and I understood that he needed a break. That is the only burn mark in the entire car and it absolutely does not smell like smoke at all, nor are there any other indications that it has ever been smoked in; there is no residue on the windows, in any of the ash trays, no burn marks in the carpet anywhere and absolutely no other sign other than that mark on the seat.

Curious based on possible burn hole in one of the photos of rear seat, please explain thank you.August 2nd, 2023 at 7:03am EST$8,250 bid placed by @LundrillAugust 1st, 2023 at 5:35pm EST$8,000 bid placed by @Jc3634August 1st, 2023 at 2:25pm ESTbenzwishes (1) 0@Alabaster LOL--I missed those with me OLD (sleepless eyes)-thanksAugust 1st, 2023 at 2:09pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 1Lol from the last 8 pics in the listing 6 are of the injectors = no black death. On October 1st 2022 I paid $297 for a Pre Purchase Inspection at Mercedes Benz of Draper and the only things they found wrong were a few hairline cracks in the wood trim and the worn shifter boot. This is a clean, original, unmolested, dealership maintained car which I no longer have garage space for. Good luck!August 1st, 2023 at 12:42pm ESTbenzwishes (1) 0@Alabaster Any signs of BLACK DEATH? You would need to remove plastic motor cover and take picts of all 6 injectors.August 1st, 2023 at 7:28am EST$7,750 bid placed by @LundrillJuly 31st, 2023 at 10:53pm EST$7,500 bid placed by @Jc3634July 31st, 2023 at 7:32pm EST$7,250 bid placed by @rgarney0July 30th, 2023 at 6:59pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 0Upon checking my records I found that we averaged just under 35mpg from Boise to SLC. Also found pics of the extremely minor damage to the front bumper which I'll upload now. July 28th, 2023 at 7:29pm ESTAlabaster (9) Seller 1The computer shows 31.8 mpg over the last thousand miles and that's all been around town. On the highway from SLC to Boise we averaged 38mpg but I was doing 90+ most of the way. It's amazing how infrequently you need to fill the tank on theseJuly 28th, 2023 at 1:09pm ESTbenzwishes (1) 0@Alabaster what kinda MPG were you getting locally and Highway?July 28th, 2023 at 12:13am EST$7,000 bid placed by @Jc3634July 27th, 2023 at 7:56pm EST$6,000 bid placed by @RkingJuly 27th, 2023 at 3:37pm
