@@JMSpeedshop thanks for getting back to me👍, am also considering a 2011 C63 6.2 V8 with performance package. Slightly... concerned in regards to the SL's ABC suspension reliability....🤔, although the SL 600 is gorgeous. Cheers
JM i was looking back to compare it to your video with the naturally aspirated m120 r129 amg sl600 ,and the speeds times at 100.160,and 200 kph are very similar to the bi-turbo which is amazing when you think the sl600amg is from 1994 or something. you know i could not find your video of the sl70 amg is it gone?....... anyway from what i remember there was not such a big difference from the 600 to 700, nice video i bought a c215 recently and i think the ABC is lovely to drive with i like it a lot just hope it doesnt break to soon
sl70 amg video jmspeedshop.com/2017/03/25/mercedes-sl-70-amg-review-testdrive/ the NA engine is just very powerfull there is also a 73 amg verion that had 525 hp and over 700nm that will be faster the the SL600 bi-turbo for sure keep in mind with you ABC system to maintain it and change oil and filters and flush the system better do maintenance then repair it when it is broken
zeker weten. deze motor is kwa omvang better te plaatsen alleen heeft hij heel erg veel aanbouw delen die je niet kan missen . denk dat de turbo's en uitlaten wel een dingete worden om goed te plaatsen. ook zijn alle koelers en groot probleem omdat hij water to air intercoolers heeft dus ook dubbel ruimte en gewicht. de motor zelf inbouwen is goed te doen maar alles er omheen netjes en goed te plaatsen is wel een brein breker
JMspeedshop another great review, you have to feel that engine is strangled. But then it would be more powerful than the amg products. Just another note is this you working for amg? 2:21 ruclips.net/video/gAcGHkhmZMY/видео.html
i think at this point the engine is reliable for a very long time and emissions is also a thing . second is if the torque is going up you need wider tyres to keep the traction . on a certain point this is just impossible with a RWD car. but 500hp could be a little more
this seems wrong the V12 biturbo is alot faster that any V8 biturbo engines. funny thing is the V8 bitubo and V8 kommressa are all 500HP some 368 kW. seems wrong hear wrong
@@JMSpeedshop so true ...with a tcu tune these boxes are just a joy. I had A and M modes added to my c32 as well as torque limiters removed and shift points changed ...changed the whole car feel ...
Nice to see a R 230 in that condition please do more reviews of cars from that dealer.
thanks. there will be more
Love those cars with 12 cylinder. Cheers
yes me too !!
perfect car for this weather
Yes for sure 👍
Good review, thanks. Enjoyed it. Car looks absolutely mint.
Thanks 👍
v12 absolutely!
Henk grooten heeft altijd leuke snoepjes staan. Leuke video ook weer 👍
Zeker hele mooie showroom
What’s better an sl 600 or is it 65
Memories. How I miss you SL600! :(
Buy one again
@@JMSpeedshop tempted!
klopt de m137 cilinderwanden gingen sneller stuk vandaar de m275 die veel sterker is
great video it was really entertaining
What’s better an sl600 or sl 55
Depends . Sl600 is more smooth and more powerfull. But a sl55 is more hotrod
@@JMSpeedshop and more loud and amg
O yes 😎
SL600 all the way. One cheap tune and you have a SL65
O yes
it'd look amazing with the sl65 wheels, they look perfect on my 2002 sl500
Nice. Thought the 65 AMG had standard 19". These are 18"
@@JMSpeedshop yes 19s, 255 front and 285 rear
Nice 👌
A new wheel design and tire up sizing made a huge difference in appearance & performance on my 2005 sl600. I went with 19” Michelin Sport 4S.
Good review
Thanks 👍
Great review👍 how is the space up front if you are 6ft6 6ft7, gonna look at one SL 600 with SL65 AMG optik, from 2006 next week. Cheers!
Im 6ft1. But i think your okey IT is pretty big

ABC suspension can be a pain. But need to do maintenance like oil flush and ook change. To keep the system clean
@@JMSpeedshop thanks for good maintenance tips👍
Wehn by 200kp/h the ABC Storing appears:)
I guess you'll have to either live in Germany or be a Freemason to do those speeds! WHOA what a car
I life 15klm from the german border 😎
Purchasing same model & year any suggestions for shops in america?
No sorry im in europe
Super!

Team v12
God, I like this car!
Then get one👍
@@JMSpeedshop I plan to, but not yet, wife says we have some priorities (you know the story). How much was this one, for example, please?
This car was a low mileage one i think IT was around €50k
Is it a five speed or seven speed
5 speed
what exhaust was done
Oem
@@JMSpeedshop mine not as loud i have s600
I don't know.then
Not OEM exhaust.
No Idea. Sounds pretty good
Motor is een leuke upgrade voor je 190 ;P

de motor zelf inbouwen is goed te doen maar alles er omheen netjes en goed te plaatsen is wel een brein breker
Good stuff; wonder how it compares to SL65
if i get that change i will take it for sure . i think that will be a blast to drive

Hello 2007 S65 AMG American, 79, 0000 miles.
Nice 😎
Maintenance on this model will cost you a fortune!
She sounds angry!
this seems wrong the V12 biturbo is alot faster that any V8 biturbo engines. funny thing is the V8 bitubo and V8 kommressa are all 500HP some 368 kW. seems wrong hear wrong
This not wrong power delivery is much more soft in a v12
The only thing that let's this car down is the gearbox
The Gearbox is perfect IT is the software controlling IT that is slow
@@JMSpeedshop so true ...with a tcu tune these boxes are just a joy. I had A and M modes added to my c32 as well as torque limiters removed and shift points changed ...changed the whole car feel ...
Sounds like engine failure. Original M120 sounds as a smooth as it should sound and not like all later engines ..
On camera the sound is always a little of then in real life but this car is fully healthy
JMSpeedshop ! Thanks for replying so quickly unfortunately I meant in general. The sound design of AMG cars since early 2K is this way...
