The original Renntech and AMG mods in these cars all went for nosebleed inducing prices. In this case it's hard to tell what this example has in it.

It's hard to coax extra horsepower out of these, but some can be gotten with enough cash transfusions! Just like the od saying: "How fast do you want to go? How much money do you have?"

The 560 is definately an autobahn cruiser, though, it really comes into its own when you go over 100 mph. It's really engineered to cruise at top speed for as long as you like. It's not just political promises, puysh the pedal down and it'll GO!!!

....Definately a nice looking car though. $18k is a lot for a car that old, but then it's a lot of car with a lot of good miles in it.
