“The Amelia Auction | Estimate: $750,000 – $850,000”?
- Prior to Mercedes-Benz acquiring AMG, they had an impressive catalog of performance cars.
- In 1991, AMG transformed the 217 hp inline-six 300 CE-24 into a German muscle car, called the 6.0 AMG Widebody.
- They replaced the engine with a 32-valve, four-cam, 5.0-liter M119 V8 and increased the displacement to 6.0-liters to produce 375 hp.
- The rear suspension was reengineered, and the body was transformed into a widebody model with flared fenders.
- The AMG Widebody Coupe has a Nautical Blue Metallic finish with custom blue leather interior and burl walnut wood trim.
- The car received an AMG serial number, indicating the extensive work invested in it.
- The car was believed to have been built in Germany and was a show car when it arrived in Japan.
- It was imported to the United States in 2022 and would be a star in any Mercedes-Benz and AMG collection.
