For sale is a 2007 Mercedes ML63 AMG.This is the Mercedes midsize,luxury SUV crossover - similar to the ML350, but VERY different.

First, here is some information on AMG (if you don't already know about this special line of cars by Mercedes):

AMG is the high performance division of Mercedes-Benz.AMGindependently hires engineers, manufactures and customizes Mercedes-BenzAMG vehicles. Mercedes-AMG is headquartered in Germany - this is wherethese engines are hand built.AMG follows a "one man, one engine"system, where a single AMG technician assembles the complete engine andis therefore responsible for everything from the installation of thecrankshaft in the engine block to the assembly of the camshaft and thecables and oil fill-up - his signature is then put on the engine plate(see pictures of the plate on this vehicle).It is said that there areonly 45 AMG technicians in the world.

This is a truly luxurious yet incredibly capable vehicle.The originalsticker price was just under $90,000.There are some importantconsiderations when buying an ML63 with over 100,000 miles.Mainly,some key maintenance should have been performed to ensure that thevehicle will not give you any surprise repair costs.I have addressedthese issues by having the following repairs / preventative maintenancecompleted in the last 30 days:

- Valve cover gasket replaced.These gaskets are known for eventually deteriorating.
- Replaced oil temperature sensor
-Replaced oil cooling seals. This was leaking oil, and after extensiveexploration for the leak, was identified as the cause. Also a knownarea of problems and has been addressed.
- Power steering pump / reservoir replaced.Also a known issue with the ML63.
- Emission risks addressed - replacement of evaporative emissionscharcoal canister.Vehicle will come with a recent emissionscertificate valid for use when you register (avoid the lines at theemission testing facility).
- Front air adjustable shocks / struts replaced.Again, another issueis the ultimate failure of these expensive parts that provide theamazing ride and ability to raise and lower the vehicle based on yourroad conditions.

While it is impossible to predict all future issues, I have addressedthe known sources of problems in order to have a safe and reliable carfor years to come.
The exhaust is really awesome, too. It has a deep, throaty V8 sound thatpairs so well with the acceleration.Yet, while driving conservativelyor on the highway, it is just a pleasant background hum.

This 2007 ML63 AMG is in amazing shape for it's age. Most cars havemany more dings, scratches, and flaws than this one. This is truly inexcellent condition inside and out.
