An impressive Mercedes-Benz 560 SEC AMG 6.0 Widebody 1989 is being auctioned off next month and could be the perfect vehicle for Mercedes aficionados.
The rare 560 SEC AMG 6.0 is a Japanese market model and as part of its transformation into an AMG model, the standard 5.5-liter V11 M117 engine has been reduced to 6.0 liters, while a set of new camshafts also were assembled. In addition, the engine now balances 16 valves, three parts, sand cast cylinder heads, a modified throttle body, orifice intake manifold and a new exhaust, resulting in 385 satisfactory horses under that long hood.

RM Sotheby’s list reveals that the car also features AMG four-piston front brake calipers, as well as Bilstein shock absorbers on all four corners.

The car also maintains its original 17-inch wheels, which are now lined with Bridgestone Potenza tires.
As for the cabin, it includes a Momo M38 steering wheel with a white AMG instrument panel. There are also padded buffalo leather door inserts and black carpet.
The car is going on sale for 90,400 km (~ 56,200 miles) on the watch and includes a Japanese service manual, jack, spare tire and an AMG document bag.
