Sirius has announced an introductory three-month trial for Mercedes Benz Certified pre-owners, allowing them to enjoy the benefits of the satellite radio service that is offered by the factory installed device in the latest Mercedes Benz models.

Called the “SIRIUS Everything” package, this special feature can be availed of as a monthly subscription after the three-month trial period. But while that can be decided on later, check out if the service is something you would love to have on your car for the mean-time. You have three months to decide!

“We are delighted buyers of SIRIUS-equipped Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicles will now be able to experience all that SIRIUS’ exceptional service offers,” said Mark Webster, Manager, Pre-Owned Operations, Mercedes-Benz USA.

We all know that the Mercedes Benz has been known to project class if you are seen owning and riding one. But apparently, today’s celebrities are getting these Mercedes Benz models for the green of it. Just take the case of singer, musician, songwriter and environmental supporter, Sheryl Crow, who is part of a growing group of well-known musicians and actors who have become passionate about the benefits of the Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC clean diesel vehicles.

Her Mercedes-Benz R320 BlueTEC is one of today’s modern diesel vehicles that are extremely quiet, environmentally clean, and can achieve a range of 500 miles on a single tank of diesel fuel. A benefit of driving a green car like a Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC beyond not sacrificing space or luxury is the IRS alternative-powertrain tax credit.

Owners of new clean diesel vehicles are eligible for the same tax credit as hybrids. The current Diesel Tax Credits for owners of a 2009 Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC are $1,800 for the GL320; $1,550 for the R320; and $900 for the ML320.

According to the EPA, the nation would save 1.4 million barrels of oil a day if just one third of all light-duty vehicles in the USA were state-of-the-art diesel vehicles. The Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC vehicles combine a smooth, quiet ride with fuel efficiency that delivers 20-30 percent higher fuel economy than a comparable gasoline engine making it the GREEN choice for Sheryl Crow and several other celebrities including Kim Cattrall, Billy Baldwin, Kyle MacLachlan, Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber, and Nicole Richie and Joel Madden.
