M-100 Powered Mercedes Benz

A short film that stars the M-100 Powered Mercedes Models from the 60's and 70's.

The 600 "Grosser" was a car built without comprimise powered by the first generation M-100 Engine, a 6.3 Litre V8. Some nice footage in the car with a demonstartion of speed and incredible turning circle!

The 300 SEL 6.3 was the result of an interesting experiment of fitting the 6.3 Litre V8 from the 600 into Mercedes standard sedan. Absolutly stunning car with Raw Power, in car footage in this film.

The 450 SEL 6.9 featered the M-100 engine, this time displacing 6.9 Litres. A more refined package than the 6.3 and featureing hydrolic suspension that provides a magic carpet ride. Nice drive by in this film of a low milage 6.9.

Enjoy the footage and there will be more to follow soon.

how much is the 6.9 450 worth

[galgenkopf]

hi topgear1507,

It depends on condition and you buy the best you can afford at the time. That said really good ones can fetch between $15 to $25 Thousand Australian Dollars. In Europe I have heard of ones changing hand for around 10 to 20 Thousand Euros, The UK about 5 thousand Pounds and the US around 10 to 15 thousand US dollars. The pricing is different all around the world, some people appreciate them more so are willing to spend more, other's don't. I hope this helps you out. Galgekopf

When I was in high school in the early '90s I knew a guy whose parents had a 1970 6.3. For some reason they allowed him to drive it regularly, lol. (Would you let your 17 year old drive yours?)

I have some great memories of riding around in that car, blowing the doors off Mustangs, C4 Corvettes, MkIII Supras and other "performance" cars of the time. I'll never forget the looks on the other drivers' faces when the 6.3 passed them. Truly a fantastic automobile :)

@Grunch73 I graduated in '87 in the San Fernando Valley of L.A. One of my classmates started a little collection of $1k-2k cars and the more modern 6.9 was one of them (his family had a scrap metal business and he dabbled in that, and then sold and/or traded cars, so he had a few grand to play with). Funny enough, the one that actually brought him the most $ in the early 90's was the near-perfect '67 Cadillac hearse that a funeral home bought from him for $5k.
