Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: The $105,000 Mercedes-Benz 600 [Nice Price Or Crack Pipe]

Only 2,677 were built. I've only encountered one a single time, and that was a beater. The very pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz overkill: the 600. What would you pay for one?

We had our first Nice Price vote in quite a while yesterday, with the $11,000 1988 Celica All-Trac just barely squeaking by with 51% of the vote. When you're talking about something as amazing as the Mercedes-Benz 600, it's hard to be truly rational about stuff like dollar figures, but 105 grand does tend to get one's attention. It's got 62,000 miles on the clock, 18,000 of them since getting a total restoration in Germany. It's a Concours d'Elegance winner. It includes the original Mercedes-Benz electric shaver- no doubt just the thing for the hirsute dictator who has everything. It appears to be perfect. It was for sale at $109,000 until recently, so Motorcar Investments is practically givin' this thing away! No credit, bad credit? No problem! Come on down! Right. So, $105,000 for this jewel. What do you think?
