In our series of Mercedes-Benz Class overviews, this blog presents a compilation of descriptive information about the Mercedes-Benz M-Class. Quoting from Edmunds.com, “Mercedes reached for a clean sheet of paper for the second-generation M-Class, which debuted for the 2006 model year. The resulting second-generation M-Class models are more powerful, better-handling and loaded with upscale features. They’re also roomier inside for legs and shoulders: 6 inches longer and 2 inches wider, and riding on a 4-inch-longer wheelbase than the old ML. There are presently four distinct Mercedes-Benz M-Class models: ML320 CDI, ML350, ML550 and ML63 AMG.”

Established Denver area Mercedes-Benz dealership prepares for arrival of the SL65 AMG Black Series — a limited-edition, high performance coupe developed by AMG
Denver, Colorado, July 26, 2008 - Denver area Mercedes-Benz dealer Mercedes-Benz of Littleton has announced its preparations for the Denver dealership’s availability of the SL65 AMG black Series, a limited-edition, high performance coupe developed by AMG. Mercedes-Benz of Littleton provides attentive customer service to its loyal customer base from its location on Broadway in Littleton just four blocks north of E-470. The Mercedes-Benz dealership enjoys a reputation throughout Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region as a reputable and trusted dealership that provides a high quality experience for Mercedes-Benz automobile sales and service customers.
The SL65 AMG Black Series is a limited-edition, high performance coupe developed by AMG based on the AMG 6.0 liter V-12 biturbo model. Beyond massive changes like widening the SL’s bodywork, AMG has developed a new front section and hood and has equipped the SL65 AMG Black Series with a special, track-calibrated suspension system - without ABC (Active Body Control). These significant changes allow installation of the widest rear tires yet on a production AMG - 325/30 ZR20 - necessary to transmit the 661 horsepower in what is the most powerful AMG ever.
AMG has succeeded, through these major modifications, to save more than 550 lbs over the SL65 AMG on which this Black Series is based. This enables the SL65 AMG Black Series to be the first AMG to accelerate to 60 mph in under four seconds as well as reach a top speed of 199 mph (electronically limited). Due to the short production timeline of this model and correspondingly low volume, the SL65 AMG will be offered exclusively for Model Year 2009.
The Denver area Mercedes-Benz dealer is open Monday through Saturday. Additional information about Mercedes-Benz of Littleton and its inventory of automobiles is available at the company’s website at www.mboflittleton.com or the company blog at www.mercedesbenzlittletonblog.com.

In this blog we feature the four E-Class sedan models and two wagons. The descriptions included here are profiled on the Mercedes Benz USA website. Long a favorite in the midsize luxury segment, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has provided comfort, performance and safety for decades.
Poise and performance. Every E-Class possesses a wealth of luxuries while reminding you of their racing pedigree. A choice of sedans and wagons with powerful engines — gasoline or turbocharged diesels — harken to a time of handcraftsmanship and attention to detail, yet look ahead with technological innovations.
We’ve consolidated some of the available information to present a summary here. If you like what you read, consider stopping by the Mercedes-Benz of Littleton showroom on Broadway in Littleton to learn more.
2008 E350 Sedan
With a choice of sport or luxury models, the E350 represents revolutionary engineering to satisfy two distinct driving styles. While both share the 7-speed automatic transmission mated to a 268-horsepower V-6, 10-way power-adjustable front seats, and revolutionary PRE-SAFE technology, that’s where similarities end.
The E350 Luxury Sedan soothes driver and passengers with Burl Walnut high-gloss wood and 12-speaker harman/kardon® LOGIC7® digital surround sound. The E350 Sport Sedan, on the other hand, includes 18-inch alloy wheels, a lowered sport-tuned suspension, and dual chrome tailpipes, plus Black Birdseye Maple wood trim and white-color gauges.
2008 E320 BLUETEC Sedan
The breakthrough BLUETEC® clean diesel technology in the E320 BLUETEC Sedan — winner of the 2007 World Green Car award — blends fuel efficiency and low noise to rival a hybrid without sacrificing power, while significantly reducing the soot and pollutants often associated with diesel engines via specialized filters and catalytic converters. This powerful and efficient diesel luxury sedan also offers performance, comfort, and stylish sophistication.
2008 E550 Sedan
The E550 strikes the perfect balance of performance and luxury. In one instance, you’re sinking into its supple leather upholstery just as the Airmatic Semi-Active Air Suspension sinks into the pavement to deliver a serene ride. With the no-cost optional Sport Package, the E550 suddenly quickens the pulse with a bolder stance and greater aerodynamics thanks to a lowered sport suspension, 18-inch 10-twin-spoke wheels, and more. Factor in our revolutionary PRE-SAFE® technology and optional 4MATIC™ permanent all-wheel drive, and you have a vehicle that is simply perfect.
2008 E63 AMG Sedan
Simply put, the E63 AMG is a four-door sedan that seats five comfortably, rockets off the line, corners with razor-sharp reflexes, and possesses the stopping power of a racecar. Powered by the most powerful naturally aspirated V-8 engine the world has ever seen — the AMG-designed 6.3 liter V-8 — it intimidates with 507 horsepower and an astonishing 465 lb-ft of torque, enough force to put most production V-12s to shame.
2008 E350 4MATIC Wagon
The seven-passenger E350 Wagon balances work and play to bring you the best of both worlds: Mercedes-Benz levels of first-class features, creature comforts, and style along with three rows of seating and seemingly endless cargo/passenger configurations.
This wagon is also quick and economical, with a 3.5 liter V-6 that produces a generous 268 horsepower without scrimping on fuel economy. Throw in the all-weather assurance of standard 4MATIC™ all-wheel drive, and you’ve got a wagon that’s everything a wagon should be.
2008 E63 AMG Wagon
Designed for versatility and performance, the E63 AMG Wagon offers pure luxury, power, and utility in the most uncompromising AMG expression available.
In this blog we profile the three current C-Class sedan models. The descriptions included here are available on the Mercedes Benz USA website. We’ve sifted through some of the available information to present a consolidated summary.
We like the Mercedes-Benz C-Class models. And if you like what you read here, you might want to stop by the Mercedes-Benz of Littleton showroom on Broadway in Littleton to take a closer look.
C300 Sport Sedan
Engineered specifically for performance driving, the newly designed C300 Sport Sedan embodies seven years of automotive thinking.
Now more aggressive than ever, its dramatic 17-inch 7-twin-spoke wheels and new athletic profile are just the beginning. Restyling runs the full length and breadth of the vehicle — even to its underside, where superior aerodynamics work hand in hand with the new AGILITY CONTROL sport suspension that automatically senses and adjusts to different road conditions and driving styles.
An AMG front intake seizes air — and attention — as it channels brake-cooling wind to the wheels. The Mercedes-Benz star is positioned front and center.
Inside, dual-zone climate control and an 8-speaker radio/CD/MP3 sound system are models of easy-to-use simplicity. The multimedia interface, comprised of one central controller and a five-inch color display, can be hidden when not in use.
4MATIC™ 4-wheel drive option available.
C300 Luxury Sedan
The C300 Luxury Sedan takes you where you want to go: the next level. And it begins with an elegant 4-spoke steering wheel and an interior upholstered in available Cashmere/Savanna and trimmed with Burl Walnut wood.
The available 8-way power front seats feature lumbar support for the driver, and the expanded cabin offers more shoulder room for driver and passengers. Up front, there’s dual-zone climate control, and throughout, the superior sounds of an optional 450-watt audio system.
Beyond the classic Mercedes-Benz grille and hood ornament and distinctively redesigned headlamps, taillamps, and roofline, the new silhouette communicates unmatched power and elegance.
4MATIC™ 4-wheel drive option available.
C350 Sport Sedan
The much anticipated all-new 2008 C350 Sport Sedan represents detail on an exhilarating scale. Its wider and lower stance results in less drag and reduced noise. Mercedes-Benz engineers also repositioned the engine lower and farther back for improved control and handling.
Along with AMG styling, the new clear-lens headlamp designs and taillamp housings are rounded to enhance vehicle dynamics, and enlarged wheel wells make way for 17-inch AMG wheels — or optional 18-inch AMG wheels — for uncompromising style and performance.
Ensuring a spine-tingling redline rush, the new C350 is anchored by a 268-horsepower 3.5 liter V-6 capable of propelling you from 0 to 60 in just 6.1 seconds. As for the Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star, it’s on the grille, front and center. Just like the values it represents.
And for those that would like to see the car (imagine that):

As the sedan reaches speed, the Airmatic Semi-Active Suspension lowers the car, shortening both the reaction times and the distance to the pavement. An innovative 5-link rear suspension, coupled with high-performance tires, assures the ultimate connection between available 18-inch wheels and the road.”
