  • the 300SEL 6.3 is faster than the 450SEL 6.9. it used a 4 speed ZF autmatic transmission, the 6.9 used a three speed automatic Borg Warner transmission, that really slowed it down

  • Very strong Car compared with new models acceleration

  • No ZF or borgwarner gearbox , it's mercedes benz gearbox !

  • @DummkopfRadar my bad, what fuckin video was i watching when i typed that? lol its clearly 6 seconds. oops

  • @mbphofan no not the lenghth of the whole video..it startet at 0.2 second and reached 60 at 0.8 seconds..thats 6 seconds, not 13!

  • Amazing, this was the culprit of technology and luxury when I was born. Awesome!

  • @Heske1991 but you're right: the 6.9 has only 3 gears.

  • @Heske1991 that's wrong. the difference between both was the power transmission: the 6.3 had a hydraulic clutch and the 6.9 was one of the first MB with lock-up torque converter. to me it's unknown that Borg Warner ever engineered a transmission for MB. maybe some parts were taken from Borg Warner but till 1990 nearly all MB transmissions were engineered by MB! btw: the 6.9 weighs about 200 kg more, that could also explain the worse performance.

  • speedometer in MPH

    approx. 6 seconds

  • @anas2912 WHAAAAAT?! it went 0-60 in 13 seconds lol my minibike would eat this thing off the line.

  • Now whoever said it can't go around corners is a dumbass. No other car that long can corner or do a u turn. Try doing it with a caddy, your not gonna get fat.
