Fun fact: The M120 has the least number of warranty claims of any other AMG engine. Though that could also be due to the lower production volume.

Do you think they had less Warranty than the E60 M119 engine?

Correct, but that’s why all statistics are normalized. Especially in the auto industry. You would take your total claims divide it by engines produced and multiply it by 1000. This would give you a number of claims per 1000 vehicles. This way you would be able to take build volumes out of the equation.

Mechanics all claim it's bullet proof...and percentages, don't change. so i would feel safe to buy any 1990s V12 benz.

The AMG version always felt like a cloak-and-dagger engine. I've worked in a Merc dealership and have never seen one. Still, the regular M120 is a beautifully smooth engine. Great video as always.

All mafia guys in 90s Russia drove w140 (called Kaban which means boar) or 7-series (called Bumer). Those who has s600 were the most respected and feared mafia bosses.

The M137 was less powerful but it was much lighter, making the V12 S class faster and more economical overall (which is what matters in the real world). Also, other than the badly designed coil packs which failed quickly (theres a fix for these now), the engine is more reliable than the M120. It doesn't leak oil as much, it doesn't have failing wiring harnesses and throttle actuators, and it is much easier to work on.

Back when engine presentation mattered. The twin turbos now are badass, but they are ugly and rightfully hidden under plastic shrouds. Mercedes, you need to take a page from Ferrari's book. This M120 is the only attractive V12 you produced.
