man that car was SICK back in the day.. I don't know about the red steering wheel and interior, but that is by today's standards- Back then it was 5x as cool.

I have always loved the widebody SECs. The interior is a bit over the top, but on the whole the car is stunning.

I had an AMG 500 SEC with the Orig AMG Motor and body kit. Great car and very fast. But, it still was no match for my cousin's 6.9 450 SEL that was able to burn rubber uphill untill he lifted off the gas; it was a RIDICULOUS car!!
