Market commentary
Today, when a Toyota or Chevy can have 385hp it is hard to remember the effect the dohc AMG conversions of big M-B V-8s had with their 385hp engine, but they were seriously impressive performers and housed within AMG’s lowered “Wide Body” coachwork they were intimidating. Today this is still a car that will scare poky drivers out of the lefthand lane, a serious, purposeful, aggressive hardtop. This is four times the value of a 238hp 560 SEC, but appropriately valued here even at barely half its pre-sale low estimate.
