1970 Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG w109 Red Pig Replica

The Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 was a full-sized luxury performance car built by Mercedes Benz from 1968 to 1972. It featured the company's powerful 6.3-liter M100 V8 from the flagship 600 (W100) limousine installed in the normally six-cylinder powered but top-end Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL (W109). The result was a nearly 2-ton sports sedan with muscle car performance. At the time of its release, it was the world's fastest four-door car. AMG, now the sports tuning subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz, but then a small local tuning company founded by former Mercedes engineers, modified a damaged car to compete in racing events, nicknamed "Red pig" (German: Rote Sau) which finished 2nd in the 24 Hours of Spa in 1971. At the end of its racing career, the 6834 cc engine yielded 428 PS (315 kW; 422 hp).
