Love these, really rare to see one today!

 

I don't know the exact year but I will guess 1990's?

Ok, not sure if my phone is playing tricks on me but it looks like this car has had some body work done on it.

From the fender up forward to the front looks like it's been repainted.

 

C126 so 1981-1990. The monoblock wheels are not original.

 

That front fender does look like it may have been repainted

 

That was Sacco's favorite front end. Hard to disagree.

 

Here is something I saw in NY over thanksgiving weekend that I didn’t know existed. Maybach EQS. I actually don’t mind the EQ SUVs but for some reason it does doesn’t seem right to have a Maybach version.

 

Yeah the Maybach version has been out a while.

 

There was also a nice Rolls Royce parallel parked in front of my sisters place which isn’t in the best neighborhood. So much money up there.

 

I saw my first Cullinan in the flesh the other day.

Too small, like the Bentley one. Not enough presence.

What's funny is the sedans from each have more presence than about anything, but the SUVs don't.

I was up higher than him in the LX570.

 

The sedans are MASSIVE. That's the difference, low, long, and wide with very upright grills.

 

Just had a 19 E450 coup in, engine was surprisingly gruff even under 3k. Power delivery was very front-loaded/the turbos hit hard in the first 1/2 of throttle and tbt back half didn't really change the level of TQ....

Car was in that rare deep ruby red metallic with the AMG package, in good shape too other than some maintenance items

Drove nicely though for the coil spring version, I like how M/B does the sensor fusion of the parking sensors and 360* cam. Some of the easiest things to get on the racks for sure!

 

What neighborhood?

 

That 560SEC definitely has an 80s drug dealer vibe to it.

 

Great Miami Vice car...

 

maybe he got cheap ones?

mine are japanese... noritz. very, very pleased. the two are different sizes... a 12gpm (most of house) and a 6.3gpm (mbr). the circuit board in the smaller died years ago and i got another and replaced it myself.
