- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- In the 90's when you bought the top of the line Mercedes it would have a naturally aspirated V12 under the hood! Today we experience the SL 600 which was Mercedes top dog roadster!
Thanks to LW Automotive for letting me film their car! It is currently for sale:

Effspot Gordon’s maniacal laugh over the $12,000 exhaust will never get old. 😂
I still remember when I saw Princess Diana driving past my late father's restaurant back in the early 90s in a maroon SL.
Now you need to find a SL73... just a little more ultimate me thinks. 😊
The M120 engine was a masterpiece. Renntech have made an SL74 and SL76 with the M120. The latter iteration with 575hp. That was monstrous back then but it set you back $200k with all the upgrades in the engine, brakes and suspension.
This is my definitive favorite SL generation! Currently have an active search for SL600s here in Sweden to see if anything interesting poppes up! 😊
What a beautiful car. You are right, they do not make Mercedes cars like that anymore and that's a shame.
This car is mint "slams trunks"
Hell yeah!!! The day finally comes, the day when Mike brings an old car to the channel, loved it ❤
Absolutely beautiful, a timeless classic work of art! I bet that V12 with a tune and full exaust upgrade could push out another 100 HP NA!
I remember Ludacris having on of these in his "Roll Out" video
Mike getting hench all that training is paying off 😂 👊🏽
As a young boy my dreamcar was the Opel Senator. Later on the Audi 80 was the most beautyful car like the Mercedes in early 90’ts. And now I know…. Cars looking better until now 😀
That second button is for when the car needs towing somewhere.
Love the 4K quality yess
Yes, this is the ultimate SL and one of the best cars ever built 😊 Luckily, I own a 1996 SL600 myself 😊
For me personaly, this is, the best looking car that i have ever seen. For my taste, these SL's are magic. I would put some Lorinser wheels and just take a ride.
This is a cool car today as it was cool in 1999. Thank you for showing this beautiful thing. I hope the new owner admire thi vehicle, not just the investment.
Thank you, I had a good time watching this video.
R129's are renowned for their build quality and craftsmanship. All R129 V12's came with Mercedes ADS hydraulic suspension. On vehicles equipped with an Adaptive Damping System the driver can select the suspension ride quality at the push of a button. Mercedes with ADS has a button on the center console that allows them to select the stiffness of the suspension. Typically, you have three settings.
I really, really want this car. I am researching flights from SAN-PIT. Great video Mike!
Keep it up Mike, more modern classic reviews!
Coolest Mercedes ever!
For those that grew up watching Sopranos!
Cool video also
You should buy one. Standing out from the crowd of RUclipsrs!
Autovlog Great Video I think it's awesome that you got to Drive that awesome Mercedes SL 600 and I think it's awesome that it has an N/A V12 and I can't wait to see what you'll review next
This is a yrue SL!! Always loved the R129. 😛😛 Going up in sales real fast!!!
This needs to be a series. Review the 90s/00s nostalgia cars.
So awesome reminds me of seeing these in car and driver or motortrend definitely my favorite years
Outstanding car.Thanks for sharing and taking us along.They don't make them like they once did
Hi Mike great video great car 😀
Used to work as a mechanic at Mercedes back in the day, and oh boy, that generation, the R129 was top notch build quality! The metal wasn't that thin piece of sh** like it is on modern cars, the paint quality was great, the Interior ... you could feel it was made with the goal to be durable, the engine, well, 200.000km were nothing to those power trains! Too bad Mercedes did go downhill with their quality! I would chose an R129, W140 or W124 over EVERY modern Mercedes!
When Mercedes was about Quality. I remember in the 90s seeing Michael Jordan driving vehicles like these on the News.
You need to get into a classic like that , you would love it !
This is nice content, Mike 🤗
A key and a shifter? Amazing! :D
This is my dream car !!!!
Mike you need this car for the channel! I would love to see you mod the shit out of it!
Great video!
I always liked the 2005 SL55🤘
Lmao the hood part 0:40 I just did that today looking at a gt63 while my CLS is getting serviced 😂
I think you should buy it Mike...
You could do a lot of comparison videos with this and the S65
that button is for the alarm system to switch it off. with the rollbar down is much nicer btw if you do the top down it wil sence if the bar is up and or the top will clear it mercedes have toucht about that. a w140 s class olso a icon.
Second button is to DE-activate the anti-tow alarm... for when you genuinely need to have it towed.
I had sl320 back then it was dream car sure 500 was better but 600 was a rocket man and so expensive like double price of 320 .....what a car
KEEP THESE CARS COMING
Mike secretly works for LW automotive 😅😅
“That switch is the “anti tow away” alarm, it’s not sport mode it’s a summer and winter switch “W” prevents wheel spin in winter conditions
Yes , basically allows the car to pull off in second gear instead of first. Also the reverse gear has a second reverse gear which is also utilized in winter mode only!!
My mother still has hers a 1996 SL600 with a carlsson wheels
Biffig!!! My dad have this car. I think that button u didnt know what is was is for towing so the alarm dont go on, I think.
God damm Mike 💪🏼🙏🏼 buy it .. they will raise in value soon a lot more than 38 K 😉 .. it’s really a cool and nice car 👍🏼 the only thing that is bothering me is the wood trim they mostly had back then , this is typical German thing with wood , also their furniture is big and heavy wood .. at least it was back then . And so cool it comes with a hardtop so you can drive it in the winter as well 👌🏻But buy it , if not this then another one .. you’re right about the generations .
Great car! The S and W on the transmission means, S - Summer,(starts in 1st gear), and W - Winter,(starts in 2nd gear).
Where are you in PA? I am also in PA, about ten minutes from LW automotive. I have an SL 600 that is cat delete. It sounds very good,but not obtrusive.
Nothing like a V12 stuffed into an SL! Mine is an ‘18 SL 65 AMG!
Shoutout Effspot
This is great content, maybe some classic car reviews
Damn Bro u really looking good in this video, ❤
The ride wasn't too shabby either...
I like the look of the R129 over the R230 chassis
W113 (1963-1971) are my favorites. manual transmission.
mint condition as the seat trim falls apart lol
Yes completely irrelevant in a 25 year old car lol. Most cars have a bit more problems at that age. Enough to be at the junk yard by now..
do you know what a car is?
Too damn good
What a BEAUTIFUL car...& with the top down *you* don't have to worry about messing up your hair. ;)
there was any of those v12 with manual transmission?
Beautiful car 😻
Zonda exhaust sound
No air suspension on these, pure hydraulics (SLS)
great video.. awesome car too
Rule number one. Stop leaning your greasy hands and arms on a freshly detailed black car. 😂😂
@AndersonDick parece muito com a sua!! Carro incrível
Lifted spec!
I own the slk230 amg.i love it its 1999.
Great video
The last real, over-engineered Benz.
I thought 99-02 all got sport package body kit and Amg wheels. I looked at 1996 one time it had to many problems to buy tough.
Nice video👍🏻
Black series SL
You need to get one of these and put that exhaust that effspot had on it! That'll be one to keep forever! I've always been a fan of the R230 myself, and I don't mind the look of the new AMG SL that came out recently (actually prefer that to the new AMG GT), but this era of Mercedes (particularly the W140 S600) has seriously won me over simply because of that N/A V12 sound!
Wanted one of these sooo bad
Duuuude!! What a car buy it lol
I really don't know why RUclips don't show me any of your new episodes. damn RUclips.
Suspension is hydraulic and adaptable.
Legendary exhaust mod by Effspot. That was awesome
This is exactly what I would want too bad no manual
What's that song name ij the beginning need it for when I'm driving through town in the merc
azucares - quavi
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I own a 2003 R230 SL500
They knew what they were doing back then
R129 but I am bias as I have one in my garage
560SL Roadster
Who really cares about some acceleration numbers anymore? An electric Kia can beat a 90's Lambo in the 0-60 mph sprint. Completely meaningless. It's the FEEL that you get from these old cars without cheap and laughable huge screens and electric motors that break and cost 20K when they do. And these cars look SO much nicer than most of the new cars and the old Mercedes quality was just outstanding.
Totally agree that design from 2012 is hideous
my dream car :(
Mike you need this car, trade the Audi for this car please.
Mercedes Benz, not just Mercedes’
That V-12 was designed for smoothness not really 0-60 and most people that bought them prefer the silky-smooth ride and power delivery over a tire smoking 700 hp, a beautiful day for a relaxing drive suits that car perfectly. Yeah but a Volvo or ANY new fast car are twin turbo and look at Toyota and their Tundra disaster, HP means nothing if it costs 75 grand and its broken beyond repair with 5000 miles.
Don’t be hatin on Volvos….😎
Find a renntech SL74
❤❤😊
It's not a 500, but man, can't help scream 2pac!
Honestly it sounds like a vacuum cleaner!
Man this is not car related but I must say don't shave that beard it looks good on you ! Keep killin it Mike awesome car review choice!
Yep,they don't make cars like they used to ,now the make Tablets on wheels !
r129's get a little annoying though with the headlights and removable hard top, why I went for a r230 LCI.
R129
