While most vehicles depreciate, the opposite is true when it happens to be one of just 1,400 Mercedes-Benz 300SL coupes made between 1954 and 1957. The appreciation is even more when that car happens to be one of 29 “alloy” models, one of which just sold for a jaw-dropping $4.6 million at a Gooding & Co. luxury car auction in Scottsdale, Arizona! See our Mercedes gullwing rentals here! (the fabulous SLS AMG)!

Mercedes-Benz is an Apple fan of epic proportions, and is making Apple the core (pun intended) of the A-Class infotainment system! This will occur in future Mercedes A-Class models, which will integrate Apple’s Siri voice-assisted technology. A special application will also translate an iPhone’s screen onto the in-car display, allowing drivers to control radio stations, update social media statuses like Facebook and Twitter and much more. Yes, the end of the world has arrived…we can now receive real-time updates on things like potholes, road-rage and "how long is this traffic light?"….sigh.
While our fleet of exotic rental cars are equipped with all the latest technology, this move by Mercedes is definitely bold!

Young starlet Miley Cyrus is certainly doing well in the financial realm, recently throwing down for a 2012 Mercedes-Benz SL550 to the tune of $127,000 USD. I assume for that price there are a few custom enhancements and perhaps a personal chauffeur. The Encino dealership was likely thrilled to see Cyrus arrive that day! Hey Miley, for that price, you could have enjoyed our arsenal of exotic rental cars in New York, LA, Miami or Chicago– changing it up as often as you alter your wardrobe!

In November of 2011, Daimler announced that it intends to axe one of the world’s most potent symbols of wealth—the Maybach. Volkswagen AG (owner of Bentley and Rolls Royce) sees the opportunity to approach some of Maybach’s wealthy clients, including Jay-Z, Samuel L. Jackson, King Juan Carlos, Roman Abramovich and the Sultan of Brunei to perhaps capitalize from the luxury car’s cancellation.

Mercedes is rolling out the next generation of its Mbrace in-vehicle communications system (cloud-based services), Mbrace2, set to ship out in the new SL Class cars in March.
Mbrace2 will incorporate social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Yelp and Google to enhance the overall driving experience…and to compete with the expanding technology in automobiles! Unlike Ford’s amazing MyTouch, however, Mbrace2 will not feature a touch screen. So…if someone were to hijack your Mercedes or Mercedes rental, could they hijack your Facebook account? This could be huge!
