From the famous AMG Hammer to the Koenig Specials 560 SEC, The Patina Collective is home to the world's most unique and influential Mercedes-Benz. We are not car guys though. We are culture guys. We appreciate these cars for their cultural relevance and the eras of Miami Vice and 80s opulence that they symbolize. The rarest tuner Mercedes from SGS Styling Garage, ABC Exclusive, Koenig Specials, RennTech, Brabus, pre-merger AMG, Gemballa, Maybach, and more, all lie within our Mercedes collection in Boca Raton, Florida. Benz culture runs deep in our blood and we aim to share with you all our passion, knowledge, and dedication to keeping these widebody cars alive. This is more than a car collection for us - more than a vintage Mercedes collection - it is a preservation of global cultural history!

*Edit Note:* Meant to say *1989* Ferrari F40 & we also want to correct that it's the 4-speed automatic transmission, not 5-speed Hey guys! As we’re documenting cars for the museum we are trying out this “Museum Collection” format. We are planning to release one video like this every two weeks or so while giving you longer “Vlog” videos the rest of the month. What did you think? And thanks for watching!

[@joshuad1716]

Gotta put out hella videos to catch the algorithm so the channel will blow

[@fatg_world4605]

That's awesome guys, but you should do this alongside the vlogs, maybe during the week once every two weeks. That way you will build up engagement and will work the algorithm alongside our weekly rendez -vous of the Sunday ! Anyway, we love the work you put in and are the best to ever do it !

[@areoff-road8286]

Yes I like that idea, a lil bit more time to wait for the vlogs but it will be satisfying as it will be a lengthier episode 👍🏿

[@E63DOM]

Love it keep it up

[@DaleC.]

One of your best videos yet. Keep it going. Might need a new channel for these. Cataloging the cars this way gives them immortal status. They may rot or rust but these will go on in digital format forever

[@chriszaiser]

You want another 1/4 million 1/2 million subs. This review format for every single damn Benz in the place. This is what the rest of the channels can't even come close to doing. You have most of the baddest mercs on this continent. You alone can provide all the content that the rest can't. ❤

[@tonychavez2083]

Exactly right my friend. My thoughts exactly while watching this video. Backstory and deep dive into the cars and engines is what a love to see.

[@matteightytwo]

Chris is right. These are cars that most of us only saw in magazines or books. Show the details... And occasionally race a couple of the tuned ones to see which tuner really did make the fastest

[@jdmjaggo]

Ai can write up a lot of the content.

[@steven12734]

Really like the idea of putting the spotlight on an individual car for each video, awesome job again from Patina 🔥

[@car_pal]

right when I try to heal from the R129 fever you guys upload this, I'm going to have to get myself a R129 now

[@xxkonrayxx]

I watch ur beamng videos it's good to see u are a mercedes fan

[@1240Dax]

Go for it man, got my R129 SL500 over 5 years ago and haven't lost even a bit of the excitement of driving it each time, the R129 generation SL-Class is easily one of the best cars of all time.

[@shaheenal-asadi]

Really digging the Museum Collection format to highlight the Brabus 7.3S, very nice details and history about the car - also great job editing in all the images and text details. 10/10 Episode

[@marcogrund7500]

Code 911 means that the car got a special treatment after it was built. Meaning it was checked for rattels and they made sure that the car was 100% perfect. Also ist has most likely more paint layers than a normal bulit car. This makes it even more special

[@PatinaCollective]

Thank you for the insight

[@joshuad1716]

This review format is dope tho, really does a good job at explaining the origin, history and what makes the car special. Definitely looking forward to seeing more like this, 2x uploads a week? One like this and one behind the scenes?

[@ravazskrachless9058]

stop telling them what to do.

[@joshuad1716]

@@ravazskrachless9058 it’s called a suggestion you clown

[@tonychavez2083]

Thanks guys, this is one of your best videos thus far. We want backstory and deep dive into cars and engines. You guys will be one of the best channels on KZbin…

[@yamennissi2556]

Im a merc collector and this is definitely out of my league!i had an amg one like it from 95 but i sold it so cheap that i regret doing that 15 yrs ago !i wish i didnt,i didnt realize that these cars are never going out of style! Love mercs,love amgs but definetely adore a brabus!! Cheers!

[@skyworks1621]

This car reminds me of the good old times. Such a cool car. This and the 190E 2.5-16V EVO II are the most stylish benz cars for me. I remember watching German movie Manta Manta in the 90s with that cool Benz in it.

[@Boost_95]

It was great seeing the history explained in this video format. Having longer vlogs will be great though 😁

[@ip2networkz81]

Great video -- this Brabus SL is so sweet. The numbers it put out in the 90s are amazing for the time period

[@BainMac]

As a Norwegian where we have the highest prices on cars, strict modifications rules etc. also some of the lowest speed limits with the highest fines 🙁 I can’t imagine how much the original owner payed, very cool.

[@c4r5on88]

As a brabus owner myself the w211 i love the fact that so many people have no clue what it is. Its styling is less aggressive than a amg but some people who know there cars will come and talk or ask questions. Has full body tuning package. Exhaust. Suspension. Engine tuning and interior accents so theres no Mercedes badges on it but all original and of course its in black. Subtle yet you just know its something special.

[@mikmillerrealtor]

This channel will go down in history as the best car story tellers of a generation of pure performance!

[@pagamevideofiles665]

MAN THE AMOUNT OF GAME AND INFORMATION WE GET FROM THESE VIDEO REGARDING THE HISTORY OF MERCEDES TUNING IS SO DOPE... THANK YOU ALL AT THE PATINA COLLECTIVE... 💯💯💯

[@andrewnichols1023]

I’m totally hooked on special edition Mercedes, you seem to own them all, what a job, l love your enthusiasm and knowledge, you obviously love what you do. Very jealous, you make amazing videos. It’s a real treat seeing these beautiful cars reviewed.

[@PatinaCollective]

Glad you like them!

[@rborissov]

Blue ABC SEC, White SEC AMG, Black M119 SEC and this car are my favorites of Patina collection!

[@d.felixphoto2260]

This winning something at the Rick Ross show. Y'all taking home some chains this year for sure

[@DanielBenzs65AMG]

can't get enough of this channel, this makes me want to send my s65 to brabus one day

[@wordsboldpublishing]

You guys really stepped up your "content" game with this video - great job. This is a Bold approach.

[@ITSAULGONE]

I'm very lucky to own a Brabus 7.3 R129 1993, but man, does it need work. I'm jealous of how this owner kept his mint after all this time.

[@tinorosmg9374]

Content. The patina collection!!! Lovely stuff guys😊. This is what you call live levelling up. I thoroughly enjoyed this.

[@TheCluelessEnthusiast]

What a car! I'm jealous of this one. Nice purchase

[@thelowlychicken]

What a true great rare unicorn 🦄 of car For me the r129 is greatest roadster ever built. Thank you for sharing your passion and dedication 🙏🏾

[@rustytoyota]

I love the passion for cars. Only spoken like somebody who LOVES cars.

[@arvindarvind-wr6jr]

I agree. Best video the Patina boys have done. Well documented.

[@oelverlust8250]

Great video! I don‘t wanna be that guy, but the transmission in that car is the 4-speed (722.3) without electronic control, not the 5-speed (722.6) which would have a stage in the lever for locking 4th gear. The 5-Speed was not available till 95

[@anilpatel5877]

Has to be one of the best videos to date! Hope the Patina go through the collection and do more videos like this

[@carbonfiber117]

Absolutely u guys should snipe for the latest model of the r129 as what's was showcased in top gear was the 1999 with a hard panoramic top that produces 592hp twin turbo

[@ivarspragulbicks3395]

I love the way how you both decided to make it. Truly beautiful car and full respect for you guys to doing this all for us. ❤️🙏🏻

[@Steven91637]

Woow the legendary 7.3l Brabus SL Benz

[@ricorocky9000]

Great car. I m using w210 1996. Still going strong

[@AD-oq2wt]

This new style of video was elite💪 keep it up

[@jonathanraos435]

Thank You Daniel and Vico for curating such a stunning video on this very special Brabus R129.

[@Benzo-h6f]

Nice car one of the most beautiful in your collection . Keep it up going . Guys have nice taste

[@opoxious1592]

You have a legend amongst cars. Consider yourself blessed to own this beautifull car. I mean, driving this car must feel like making a trip trough heaven on a shiny afternoon. Am i right?

[@DannyRodriguez-kx5yk]

My Sunday morning coffee and watching Patina collective

[@bmwf1152]

I drive by brabus everyday. Greetings from Bottrop-Kirchellen

[@Wlodek1410]

3:03 good diction good commentary, good to hear from you

[@msobic]

I don't want to nit pick... but some objective comments form an aficionado: it seems this is a "regular" design with the engine design tune option. Normally the front bumper lower lip is one straight line. You can see it in the Jeremy Clarkson Part at the beginning. The Brabus back bumper is also somewhat more muscular than the regular stock. There were also specific Barbus Design side skirts. This car "misses" the period correct Body Kit but given the horrendous price for the engine tune one can understand that some owner opted out. The wheels you have are not 100% period correct but very nice. (Its from the CL Coupes which came after 2001) Normally you would have the three spoke star or the "multi spoke star" option for the early period SL''s until 1996. Still this is one impressive car to have and built in super small numbers. I once had the privilege o drive an original SL 73 AMG. Truly amazing straight line performance. Congrats on you collection and purchasing all these cars and on the channel.

[@rihet]

Lovely one ! Good job ! I like the way Vico talking not raping during talk, sounds more serious and respectful. What ever, I like u guys keep pushing it ! Thx for the videos and everything u doing for the Benz community. ❤

[@gtboard]

Woho Notweigans are the Saudi / Arabs of the North 🎉😂 Great owner!

[@rubencromeyer8043]

I have no words. This is beautiful and amazing.

[@housearea]

The intro of this video is insane! Keep up with the great work guys!!! Patina Sunday BABY

[@E63DOM]

I like how this video was very informative and explaining the R129 BRABUS 7.3s came about. I'm glad it's part of the collection and that it's going to be in the museum for us to explore and check out. Keep finding Gems 💎 and keep being great. #ThePatinaCollective #Benzonly #Thebiggesttoeverdoit

[@DrHumorous]

Guys, you are awesome! The cars couldn't be in better hands. Very happy for you and for us too 😃

[@theniceones1613]

*Glad to se eyou guys taking this channel more serious instead of getting haircuts and acting cool. This is the content we need.*

[@Cav3mann]

If I had over 300 Benz’s I’d think I’m cool tf 😂😂😂

[@jeffdaniel1000]

incredible video. Fantastic commentary. Mercedes could learn something from Patina.

[@georgewhite7611]

This is a great direction to take the channel! Love the history and stock video of brabus factory. These videos will become your bread and butter, Maybe even put tags in the titles so they are the first result for someone looking for a specific merc.

[@summer-ww3op]

Patina collective is the one who makes your head spin the level of these great mfkrs is unmatched sorry for the language 😊

[@shingnosis]

This car was peak 90's.

[@deejayzagadka7656]

i got one of this but 500 and that was my dream car when i was young now i own :)

[@kaiyondo]

An actually good youtube ad wha!???

[@jbmectronic4314]

I remember back in 2004, having a -95 M3 coupe, late night in stockholm, seeing a SL500 in rear view mirror, after redlight I heard it on the revlimiter and drifting out in the left lane to pass. The race was on, I had put in a new stereo but it wasnt locked in properly so it came out over a bumpy bridge sektion😂. The SL didnt have much of a chance but it sure sounded mighty, both gave thumbs up 😁 German engineering ❤

[@Guaposostoned]

Do one technical review/history for each of the unicorns. This presentation is immaculate Vico and team. Watch the numbers. This is that niche. 👌

[@doylehargrave233]

OMG You fuckers got it!!!! I saw your initial video with all the others which were amazing….BUT you guys captured a unicorn!

[@SayMyNaamee]

[@RENRAW111]

Great video! Thank you so much for all Your hard work. All Your efforts in putting it together is much appreciated. I love both Mercedes and Brabus. I'm a car guy from day one. But Brabus Is doing and does what Mercedes used to do and more. And either can no longer do or wants to. So, Thank You once again. And I look forward to many more. Well done!

[@albertobiserov9904]

Cl 600 was crazy for me but this wooh😮

[@stumc2223]

Keep pushing guys. Gotta get you guys over the 100k subs. Hidden jem channel🔥

When he said “look at this guy and his old Benz” I felt that! I get judged all the time for driving a red clk430 with a amg kit on it.

That SL7.3 S is a very nice car from Brabus. But Renntech upped the ante to an SL7.4 in the 90's as well.
