Best looking Mercedes ever,these times had class.......bring back 80s

[@vaughnboston148]

I concur accurate statements compared to today's generic appearing 21st century Benz

[@ryhu5642]

Can still smell the gas of the cocaine in the there too 😂

[@christophertmunro4503]

The music from that series was just as much a star of the show as any member of the cast!!!!

"Don't tell me he's gonna walk." "He didn't, he drove."

[@clevlandblock]

I'm not a Florida resident but I have had occasion to do some late night driving in south Florida along A1A (Stuart area). Playing a Jan Hammer CD during such a drive, with music like this, gives a new dimension to the music and the show.

[@Sonny5675]

Lol. Same here. Some would be embarrassed but not me...Awesome..

[@geekane9462]

Probably the most slick and smooth yet ominous tracks of Jan's whole Miami Vice composing, IMHO

[@leekibble5211]

This is hands down the best Jan Hammer track in 5 series. Thanks for recreating this epic tune.

[@mikeard9127]

Best show ever

[@garyjohnson4161]

Black Mercedes is good music to listen to

[@adamrichardson6821]

That was gorgeous. 1985 revisited. Thanks, Sonny!

[@512Sonny]

Cheers!

Damn it!!!...,,,,18 months of undercover work shot to hell!

[@Sbrodj31]

It's a shame this track iz not on Miami complète cd

[@jairkerker2821]

So much wasn't there, while Jan filled the 2nd CD with newly recorded tracks (which are great) I really looked for various versions of some (Tubbs &Valerie for instance) and more short cinematic themes from the show.

[@christophertmunro4503]

You know any car ever featured in that series (Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati & etc.) is now worth a shitload of money!!!!

[@vakflrir]

Love this Sound ❤️ 80s synth-instrumental sound 😍

[@minutepapillon5060]

On touche au sublime.. cette série était la meilleure parmi les meilleurs ! Merci beaucoup Sonny :)

Your attention to the Benz (no disrespect) pales to my attraction at the laser-striped helicopter. LOL

Hey Pal, Welcome to Definitely Miami, Vice Pal, Vice. Big 😃.

[@BB-zs6gm]

Awesome

[@woodrowclose]

Amazing.

[@yeoldesaltydog7415]

Hot Wheels has I think, this Mercedes out. They're Red now but the first release was Black. If I have one, Im breaking it out for this. Miami Vice got me loving Ferrari. Now that Im into Finned cars, Im so Glad Tubbs had the '60 Caddy. Never saw any 57 or 58 Plymouths though. lol

[@Marklin15]

Appears to be a Euro W126 with a US bumper body kit. Looks like Lapis Blue or Nautical Blue but not black.

[@Romanocalabrese]

♥️♥️

[@DoctNo]

Top class

[@DoctNo]

Fantastico

[@eduardocasasus8663]

Muy bueno.

[@anthonyiadarola1201]

BBS’s

[@BuiltToRace_com]

The car is DB code 904 Midnight blue

[@theshervinator]

No, this is either Lapis Blue Metallic (if the car is a ‘79-‘84) or Nautical Blue Metallic (if the car is an ‘85). Midnight Blue is much darker than this and actually looks black at night. I know this because I own two W126s, both in Midnight Blue.

[@craigorlikowski2507]

At time of viewing, two people did not enjoy the rides!

[@Andrew-dr3wh]

Stunning W126 ... does anyone know what body kit is on this car and what type BBS are on it ...

[@sybex666]

They look like BBS Mahle

[@robertgohlke]

I am pretty convinced (looking at the dark clouds of exhaust coming from the 126 in the car chase when it accelarates) that this a Turbodiesel. Namely a 300 or 350 SD. Which again would mean that the bodywork has been added "after Sales" and it is not a genuine AMG Kit. The tires indeed look like BBS Mahle

[@shoyamauchi702]

I think it is BBS RA 237 with AMG kits

[@cuoresportivo7149]

That’s just how engine’s were back then, probably running a bit rich. The smoke isn’t black enough for a TD/SD.

[@cuoresportivo7149]

Could be a Zender or Lorinser kit, I doubt it’s an AMG kit with BBS wheels in that era.

[@dmitrykostin4227]

W126. Early AMG or Lorinser version.

[@Trucker340]

i want, i need and must have this, Is there any way at all i can get hold of this???? pretty please with cream and cherries.

[@nerdmike3778]

this white car is a Lotus?

[@512Sonny]

That's actually a Lamborghini Jalpa, quite a rare one, especially in white. You get a better look of it in the main tune for this episode: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZuZqJ6iq8l8sLs.

[@Jo281266]

....der Mercedes ist Blau - nicht schwarz ?!?

[@512Sonny]

Ein nicht unberechtigter Einwand, jedoch ist es meines Erachtens nur sehr schwer eindeutig zu klassifizieren, denn alle Szenen mit diesem Mercedes wurden bei Nacht aufgenommen. Der Mercedes-Benz W126 ist in den 80ern in verschiedenen Farbausführungen erschienen, und da bei Miami Vice nur selten gespart wurde, wurde ich mal behaupten dies ist keine Serienlackierung, demnach kein Standard Dunkelblau oder Schwarz. Die exklusiveren Ausstattungsoptionen des SE und SEL wurden in den Jahren 1984-1991 mit einem speziellen 199 Blauschwarz Metallic Farbe (Black Pearl) lackiert, worauf auch die BBS Felgen hindeuten, was ich in diesem Fall für das Wahrscheinlichste halte. Mehr Informationen zu den Farben des W126: www.meinbenz.de/farben/126/Farbcodes126.htm. Des Weiteren wird diese offiziell unveröffentlichte instrumentale Einlage von Jan Hammer seit mehreren Jahren als „Black Mercedes“ geteilt und um mich dem zu fügen, wo zugleich schwarz an sich nicht ganz verkehrt ist, bin ich schlussendlich bei demselben Namen geblieben.

[@Jo281266]

@@512Sonny ...die Wahrheit liegt (wie Immer) in der Mitte. Aber evtl. soll das "Black" eine mehr oder weniger "Symbolische" Charakteristik haben. Eben etwas "dunkles" ..."böses"..

[@fredericmarin4636]

Oui mais il fait nuit et black ça pète plus pour un titre même si ça fait beauf en couleur voiture.

[@ReSiDeNt_E]

@@512Sonny Aus meiner Sicht ist es nautikblau (Farbcode 929)
