This week Canyon State Classics is proud to bring to market one of our favorite automobiles here at the shop. The beautiful and powerful 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEC Coupe. This was THE big boy car to own in the 80's and 90's and 1991 was the end of an era of overbuilt, zero compromise engineering from the Silver Star. This Bruno Sacco designed masterpiece is considered one of the best built, best designed S-Class models of all time. This particular example is a lifelong California car before making its way to Arizona several years ago. The previous owner embarked on a no expenses spare refresh of this beautiful 30 year old machine!
The following is a list of options as this 560 SEC is currently equipped:
-5.6L 299hp V8 Engine (Fresh Timing Chain)-4 Speed Automatic Transmission (Rebuilt)-Ice Cold A/C (All New)-Limited Slip Rear End-Cruise Control-Power Windows-Power Door Locks-Power Antenna-Heated Seats-Upgraded Bosch Euro Headlights-Dual Note Horn-Fog Lamps-Automatic Climate Control-Hydraulic Rear Suspension-All New GAHH German Leather Interior-Power Sunroof-Power Seatbelt Arms-Upgraded Premium Sound-Period Correct OZ AMG 3 Piece Monoblock Wheels-Brand New BF Goodrich Performance RadialsThe body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car is finished in its original color of Blue Black Metallic and is in very good condition and is ALL ORIGINAL on all sheet metal! The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any well cared for garaged car should be. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape and original. This car shows fantastic for its age and miles and has always been well cared for. The hard to find Bosch European full glass headlamps really stand out and the car is riding on high dollar original fully restored AMG multi piece wheels sourced from Australia! Just between the wheels and headlamps alone are over $5k in upgrade costs.
The interior is the highlight of this car and in like new condition all around. The dash and door panels are in very nice condition with zero cracks or damage to be noted anywhere. The mushroom leather seats are all brand new GAHH supplied which shows the quality of leather used in this car. All wood grain is in excellent condition including both accordion console lids and all were sent out for full restoration. The carpets and headliner are also brand new high end materials. The car also still has OEM Mercedes floor mats. All dials and controls function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully functional. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very clean and does have the original jack, tools, and the original spare tire and wheel. This car is all there and in excellent shape with all functions and accessories working as they should.
Mechanically, this SEC runs GREAT! I have owned nearly 20 80's and 90's era Mercedes vehicles, and this car is definitely in the top tier! This car has all of its recent service as well as special attention to problematic items like the hydraulic suspension, steering box, valve covers, timing chain, fuel system, transmission and complete new AC system and automatic seat belt guides! The car has also has fresh suspension all the way around to improve handling and give the car a more "aggressive" look. The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. The V8 engine is very quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The 5.6L V8 has been Mercedes workhorse engine for nearly 30 years, so you know it is just plain reliable. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 90mph, and is claimed to have a top speed of 156 MPH! The car is tight and right as many other even lower mileage cars are, with no leaks or current mechanical issues. The car will include 2 keys, tools,spare tire, and owners manual.
All in all, this is beautiful SEC for the miles. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owner.This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. The car also has a clean Arizona Title. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Tempe, Arizona.
