| 2001 Mercedes C320 for sale in Chicago Illinois. This Mercedes is a one owner with 30,390 actual miles! This Mercedes had all of its recommended service done at a Mercedes Dealership, has new tires, and runs great. Options include A/C, AM/FM/CD changer, cruise control, heated leather seats, lumbar support, power brakes, power steering, power locks, power seats, power windows, power sunroof, anti-lock brakes, keyless entry, anti-theft system, traction control, power rear sunshade, seat belts, airbags, and radial tires wrapping aluminum alloy wheels. These C320s are powered by a SOHC 3.2 liter V6 engine rated at 215 horsepower and an estimated 26 highway MPG! This engine backed by a 5 speed automatic transmission with Touch Shift. Touch Shift allows manual gear selection of the automatic by pushing the shift lever to the left slightly to downshift and to the right slightly to upshift. When in normal drive mode, the electronically controlled automatic can also adapt to both road conditions and driver style. Another carryover from the previous car is Electronic Stability Program, or ESP. Found on every Mercedes product and tailored to each specific model, ESP uses a steering angle sensor, speed sensors at each wheel, sensors for lateral acceleration and vehicle yaw to calculate the path being asked by the driver (through the steering) versus the vehicles actual path. If there is a discernable difference, ESP activates to reduce the chances of understeer and oversteer, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle. Traction control and ABS with brake assist are also standard equipment. If the C-Class does get into an accident, there are plenty of other new measures to keep occupants safe. The body structure itself features new reinforcements in the body floor, doors and roof pillars to improve impact absorption. Tele Aid, Mercedes cellular-based emergency call system, is standard in both models. Inside the cabin, all five seating positions in the new C-Class are fitted with three-point belts with electronically controlled pre-tensioners. Front passengers get dual-stage front airbags and door-mounted side airbags. Rear outboard passengers also get side airbags, and curtain airbags deploy from the headliner to offer head protection to all outboard passengers. Like before, the C-Class has BabySmart, a system that uses transponders to detect the presence of a BabySmart-compatible child seat to automatically deactivate the front passenger-side airbag. Located in our Chicago Showroom, this 2001 Mercedes Benz C320 can be seen at www.gatewayclassiccars.com or call 708-444-4488 for additional information. |
