I had the pleasure, or rather the honor, of having worked in Germany as Export Customer Service Representative for this car. That was the best time of my professional life. Of the many celebrities I met, the car itself was the most impressive. Unbeatable!

As a former murderous African general who took power in a blood soaked coup in the mid 70's, this was my primary vehicle choice as the tyrannical president of said country. I obviously can't say which African nation I ruled with an iron fist, but now I live my days blissfully in exile and still have my 600 Pullman.. This video brought back wonderful memories.

ah yes, i bought one of these off a fellow who traded it for a 454 chevelle in the late seventies. done had it blinged to the nines by a renowned coach builder of the era. still have the car to this day, and take her out on the roads at least once a year. softest ride, smoothest trunk close, and luxurious seats, a ride that can't be beat.

Kudos to you for maintaining this vehicle I have two cars benz w 115 and 123 Both vehicles do not run very badly The w 115 car was the official car used by the world’s first prime minister ( Mrs. Shirimawo Bandaranayake ) My dream is to get those 2 cars running It is not easy The politicians of sri lanka have stolen the national economy and the whole country is in debt to the world The country is now being run by IMF and world aid Everything is taxed Just breathing is not taxed I have seen benz cars abandoned in some countries which are in the best condition Both my cars have about 60% damage to the bumper Recovery is difficult If you have the body of the w 115 or 123 cars in you possession, I would be grateful if you could provide me with the body of those cars. Also, if there is any possibility to help me in making these two cars, I would be grateful Sorry if there was a mistake…… I am also a person who loves benz cars…………………

In 1950s, the American cars were the pinnacle of luxury. Better than a Rolls, Bentley or Mercedes. Their styling was so superior that in 1958 Mercedes brought out tailfins on their cars. Love the 600 but each of them have their own place. P.S. These cars cost a bomb to maintain and fix

The 600 needed a bigger engine, a quality auto transmission (GM), an efficient a/c (GM), and ridden of all this nonsense hydraulic/pneumatic powered everything. Also, even the swb models weren't fit as owner/drivers (unlike Silver Shadows) because of the disproportion between front side windows that are too narrow, and the rear compartment side glass given it a "must be chauffeured" look. If not for that styling flaw the 600 would have sold like hotcakes (like the Silver Shadow).
