The 1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SL in photos.
There's no rational justification for a $132,000, V-12-powered two-seater, but allow us to try. How about 0 to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds and a 155-mph top speed, both delivered with utmost smoothness and civility? Yes, a 500SL isn't much slower but is much less expensive, but that's not really the point. The point, for 600SL buyers, is to own the best. And, in the realm of Mercedes droptops, this is unequivocally the best.
The 600SL looks just like its lesser siblings, except for a front bumper extended two inches to compensate for crush space lost to the huge engine.
As in the 300SL and 500SL, the 600SL comes with an aluminum hard top in addition to its fully automatic soft top.
Press one button and the 1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SL drops its top.
The top hardware includes a hidden roll bar that can be raised if you want to look like a dork. It deploys automatically in an accident.
The Mercedes-Benz 600SL top speed is governed at 155 mph.
The Mercedes-Benz 600SL interior provokes questions like, "How did they cover every single surface in leather or wood?"
The 6.0-liter V-12 is a snugger fit here than in an S-class, but still makes the same 389 horsepower.
With 420 lb-ft of torque, the 600SL doesn't require big throttle inputs to deliver rapid acceleration.
