2014 BoConcept smart Car

BoConcept and smart both design products for urban lifestyles. BoConcept creates unique, customizable, urban furniture. BoConcept and smart partnered up and designed the BoConcept special edition smart fortwo.



With dedicated craftsmanship and clever designing, this rare, special edition smart is truly one of a kind. The result is a smart with great detail (interior and exterior) and warm brown leather hand-crafted interior with bright contrasting yellow stitching. You can get this same leather and color scheme in BoConcept's Smartville collection furniture and accessories.




You can visit BoConcept's Website at the link below:

The BoConcept smart is a matte white, with brown leather interior (yellow contrast stitching), and yellow side mirrors. It is also the first to introduce the new anthracite colored tridion safety cell with matching twin 5-spoke Brabus wheels.

I have two of these special edition smart fortwo's on my lot right now. Please call or email me to schedule an appointment to come view and test drive these one of a kind smarts, because they will not last for much longer.

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA is a vehicle we are all excited about. This 4 door coupe will be a smaller version of the CLS. How small exactly? It will technically be a bit larger than the current Mercedes-Benz C-class. The estimated measurements will be 1.4 inches lower, 4 inches wider, and about 2 inches longer than the C-class. The CLA is going to be a front wheel drive vehicle and, in turn, be more afforable. A Mercedes-Benz will now be easier to afford for younger buyers. It is still not official exactly which engine will be coming to the United States, but speculation says the CLA250 will be a 4-cylinder turbocharged engine with 211 hp. I am anticipating the launch of the CLA-class in the United States, because I think it will give Mercedes-Benz a new feel with a different type of customer. I would probably do a Master Lease on one of them when the time comes... :)

Mercedes-Benz 2013's Arriving Now!

Mercedes-Benz 2013 vehicles have already started arriving in! We just received our first 2013 E350 Cabriolet in Steel Grey. I would have to say that the new 2013 vehicle I fell in love with is the new C250 Coupe with sport package Plus. We have about 4 in stock, and they have gotten a lot of attention. The new colors polar white and diamond silver are absolutely beautiful on this car! Polar white is one of the whitest whites you can get and the diamond silver has a hint of blue. The sport package Plus on the 2013's includes sport badges on the sides of the car where the blue efficiency badges used to be on the 2012's. The new sport wheels look great! The most unique component in the sport package Plus is the black interior with red stitching and red seat belts! The red seat belts do stand out, but you can also choose black seatbelts if red is not for you at no extra cost. 2013's allow you to Yelp!, access Facebook, and even pay your car... in your car! Pictures to come. These are some stock photos below, but I will post some photos of the 2013's in stock at the dealership this week. Enjoy! :)

Mercedes-Benz & smart Certified Pre-owned Vehicles

Have peace of mind buying a Certified Pre-owned (CPO) Mercedes-Benz or smart

   Many people ask me what Certified Pre-owned is. Below I will explain what Certified Pre-owned is all about.

   The vehicle must be no more than 6 years old and have less than 75,000 miles. They go through a rigorous 162-point inspection and certification on the engine, drivetrain, electrical systems, interior, exterior, and more. Our CPO vehicles are like new. We have such confidence in our product that you will own it for a lifetime and will pass it down to your children. CPO vehicles come with the original factory warranty along with an additional 12 months or 100,000 miles (or whichever comes first). You can also get an extended limited warranty of 12 months of 120,000 miles or an additional 2 years or 135,000 miles. Don't forget - with any new or used Mercedes-Benz, roadside assistance is just a phone call away.

   Mercedes-Benz is very strict about CPO vehicles being in pristine condition. Mercedes-Benz sends inspectors to MB dealers at random to audit/check CPO vehicles.

   At Mercedes-Benz of Orange Park, I give you the full red carpet delivery with any new or used car and deliver your keys on a silver platter... literally! It doesn't get any better than that!

The Amazing 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK-roadster

The Amazing 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK-roadster

"One of the Best Redesigned Vehicles of 2012 & the new SLK's interior is lavish, its exterior sexier and sportier than ever, and the open-air freedom of a retractable hardtop convertible is always captivating." -Kelly Blue Book

I have to agree with the above quote. I have always loved the SLK's, but the 2012 SLK topped it off. I remember driving the first 2012 SLK we had at the dealership. I was taking it to a show with the top down. This beautiful Mars Red SLK got so many looks as I drove down Blanding Blvd. I had to remind myself that they were looking at the car, not me! :)

There are three different models available:
  • SLK250 - 201-hp, 1.8L turbo 4-cylinder
  • SLK350 - 302-hp, 3.5L V6
  • SLK55 AMG - 415-hp 5.5L V8

The SLK was one of the first retracable hardtops to come out. Mercedes-Benz has taken the SLK to another level. The new look of the SLK-class is aggressive, wider, and more aerodynamic. This sexy, hardtop convertible will cut through the wind and go from 0-60 in only 6.5 seconds. You can shift down the road in a 6-speed manual in the SLK250, or upgrade to a 7-speed automated manual (standard on SLK350 and enhanced on the SLK55 AMG). The new engines are cleaner for the environment, more powerful, and torquey.


First introduced in the SLK is Magic Sky Control. Just by pressing a button, the roof will change from tinted to clear to let more light in the cabin. It looks out UV and infrared light and still keeps the cabin cool. Magic Sky is definitely an option I would suggest when picking out your new SLK.

The top folds down in less than 20 seconds. Enjoy the top down all year long with Airscarf. Airscarf is located in the seat behind your neck and blows warm air to keep you warm.

Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing a new 2012 SLK.
