I owned one. This is the last hand assembled Mercedes. The head liner and any other non-leather parts of the interior is either made of wood or suede, not Alcantara, the cheap stuff. The only vehicle that cost is not an issue. I regret selling it. I was just stupid.
Derek would love to see a video pertaining to everything associated with purchasing a vehicle and shipping it to the U.S. pertaining to all the actual costs and paperwork. I know you did one for Canada but would love to see one for the U.S. Thanks for all the great videos and info you provide! Also in a past video you were talking about getting a mechanic so he could look over the cars for customers. Any luck on that?
The sign of a modern man, when you try and cater for all regions. :D The UK way of saying it coupe is correct i think since it is a french word. Keep up the great channel
Love those small period correct wheels and meaty tires, must ride like a dreem and looks classy! 20' wheels are for wannabe gangsters, with no taste :(
Are you familiar with the big issue that the 91 to 96 W140s use a Biodegradable wiring harness. They WILL DESOLVE OUT OF NOWHERE..YOU NEED TO CHECK TO SEE IF ITS BEEN RESOLVED OR UPDATED YET. ITS SOMETHING THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED..HOPE THAT HELPS..I had a 96 SEC500 AMG and now have a 97 SEC600 AMG I PICKED UP WITH 38,433 MILES WITH ALL RECORDS AND ALL SERVICE WAS ACTUALLY DONE AT Park Place Mercedes-Benz ...Anyway I paid $4000 and since I in fact was Head of BECK IMPORTS Mercedes&Lamborghini Service Dept. I know these cars inside and out...and what problems to look for..On this Chassis which is the W140...Never mess with one that has AC or ANY HVAC problems because its an automatic minimum $3000 u.s. and that is regardless if it is the dealer or ANY quality shop. the entire dash must be completely removed which when done is a 24 to 30 hour job. Its NO JOKE..The SEC 600 AND THE 4 DOOR S 600 HAVE 1.4 MILLION PARTS!!!! KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR A 1992 -1995 500E which is THE HOT ROD MERC..IT WAS TRULY BUILT IN STUTTGART BY PORSCHE FOR MERC AND IT HAS THE 5 LITER OVERHEAD CAM H.O.V8...AND PUSHES 400HP WHICH IS QUITE A # FOR THE DAY.. PLUS IT WAS UNDERRATED AND IS ACTUALLY PUSHING 450...I have a 94 and the Dyno doesnt lie.. Take care

ME TOO
Legendary vehicle.
A dreamcar... Hardtop coupe. 400 bhp. And I can't import it. Gonna get a suicide machine from E-bay...
Where is the button for the frontlight vipers?
i miss the legendary tree already
Don't worry, I am not changing the location for good.
@0:23 Isn't it an SEC 600?
What a great car.

Is it true that this would be more fuel efficient compared to the american versions?
Awesome cars, i remember Clarksons review on Top Gear on these 👌
You should put the times were you inspect the interior,exterior,engine,turnk in the trunk :) love your channel
It would be a nice thing to have eh?
Perhaps when we are rich enough to hire more people. GO EVERYONE!!! BUY MORE CARS!!! haha
it is crying to get some 20" wheels, it looks sad with those old tiny things

Nice! Are you guys exporting from a different port now that you're allowed to film at?
Only for some countries. Our regular port doesn't use one of the shipping lines.
Laughed at that normal human comment once I got it. Took a bit. That’s funny. Love this btw
They made them as small as 4.2 V8, but whats the point of that? V12 beast please
Just a quick question, does the Toyota Alphard import to North America?
First ones made in 05/2002. I have one en route to Vancouver Bc. Ask Derek to find you one!
Ricky Ho I live in Richmond British Columbia, and Alphard is one of my favourite JDM. XD
I definitely want one of these, especially when it's decked out with the AMG kit.
I thought all s600s come with full leather stitched door cards and dash boards, but obviously not.
I love these. Thanks
Can i order from my country n have it shipped there too?
junior igie depend which country u from
I love how you said b b b ball joint
Potential drift missle?
CRINGE, keep the drifting antics to the true touge attack vehicles.. big Euro cruisers just don't seem right to go sideways imo
Its a 600 CL
You didn't play the seat memory game!!!!
I actually shot the 330i after I shot this one. If you like that game, I can play it more.
PacificCoastAuto it's gotta happen more! It's hilarious how some people drive...
Collectible. .please drive it to my garage,thank you
Love those small wheels and meaty tires, must ride like a dreem and looks classy!
does this make the vrom vrom sound like the lambos ? lol
I live Mercedes they are top quality cars.I'm selling a 1996 250!;)
The bloody cat would it had been suppa kool with right hand drive. Ty 😀👍🇺🇸
hahaha 235 rears with a v12 oh my that would be interesting
Same 6 in Nas video If I rule the world.
600 SEC
wanna be a baller shot caller
20 inch blades?
Thtasss righttt!!!
Id rather get the CL600 or the S600L than this I dont know the exterior is so boring imo 😅 and the color im not a fan off. Interior ofc awesome
possibly just needs bigger wheels, a set of 20's would totally transform the vehicle
I really like the looks of the CL too. Funny thing, these ones are becoming more expensive than the (Newer) CL now.
PacificCoastAuto Easy to understand why, W140 chassis is far superior to the CL.
The shape of the car is wrong 😷
