1977 Mercedes Benz 450sel 6.9

In 1977 the 450sel 6.9 was the fastest sedan in the world. This car cost around $70,000 in 1977 dollars. Brock Yates wrote an epic road test/review at the time in which he drove from Ann Arbor Michigan to Road Atlanta Racetrack, ran the car on the track for hours, then drove back to Ann Arbor with no mechanical failures. When I find the link, I'll update this post with it. If you've seen Ronin or Lost Highway you've seen one of these legendary cars in action.
