I love my CLS55, but I'm looking for something with a little more charachter. I think I found it.

1966 Mercedes 600.



Opinions?

 

I think you have too much time on your hands. And $$$!! LOL!!

 

Is that a Pullman? NICE. I actually drove one before, its pretty interesting but really a collector's car. I cant picture you driving it every day.

Now, a 190SL might be a different story LOL

 

If it comes with a guy named 'odd job' let me know.

 

OMG that's one of my favorite cars!!!

Get the Landaulet with the convertible top for the back. That's what's up






etc...

 

^ god that is awesome

 

I absolutley love this car - it has 25,000 ORIGINAL miles, owner is asking $140,000. I've only begun to look at them so I may find something better suited fora daily driver. Although this car is damn well perfect.

And no, no HRE's for this bad boy if I get it.

 

well that certainly has character.

 

$140K for the one pictured seems kind of a lot. You can probably import one from Germany for a lot less. You won't need to do much paperwork as well since the car is over 25 years old. Nice choice...good luck!!!

 

Really HdS? Who can I contact?

 

Really neat cars. Maintenance costs as well as parts availability are gonna be rediculous, even compared to lambo standards. Just a warning....

 

Robert what about a reliable vehicle for everyday! nothing like an old school 600 though!

 

 

You have infinite number of resources. That guy asking 140 is absolutely dreaming IMO.
Here are two from www.carclassic.com :

There is also another site full of german cars...I forgot its name though....heard it was bought by eBay or something. Does anyone know/remember that website's url? Finished by .de...I'll try to find it.

Edit: Here's the info on importing a car to the States: http://www.carclassic.com/us_info.asp

 

They are extremely costly to maintain but are beautiful.
