A very rare Mercedes-Benz S-Class V12 from AMG will be put up for auction (25 photos)

This version of the W220 with a V12 was produced for only a month and sold to select customers.





At the end of April, the auction house RM Sotheby’s will put up for auction a little-known modification of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan of the W220 generation. It is claimed that the Mercedes-Benz and AMG alliance assembled only 70 four-door cars with this engine. The car has serious mileage, but looks almost like new.

The Mercedes-Benz S 63 AMG will be auctioned. This modification was produced for only one month in 2001. The sedan was not included in the official Mercedes-Benz catalog and was sold only through AMG dealerships. The S 63 W220 was produced exclusively with an extended wheelbase.

A distinctive feature of the rear-wheel drive S 63 W220 was the naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V12, which developed 444 hp and 620 Nm. The engine was equipped with a 5-speed automatic transmission. Later, the S-class had more powerful versions with the indexes S 55 AMG and S 600, whose engines acquired a supercharger. In the first case, the unit had eight cylinders, a supercharger and 5.4 liters of displacement, from which 500 forces and 700 Nm were removed, the second engine was tuned for identical output with a higher torque (800 Nm) and a different configuration - V12, 5.5 liters and two turbochargers.

The copy put up for sale has a left-hand drive, although its first owner lived in Japan. The car is currently in the UAE. The rare sedan's trim combines a silver body and black leather with wooden inserts in the interior. The equipment includes active suspension and seats with heating, ventilation and memory settings.

The mileage of the Mercedes-Benz S 63 AMG is 136.2 thousand kilometers, while they plan to get from 100 to 160 thousand dollars for it. In Europe, for comparable money, you can get a new S-class.
