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

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.

@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.
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
