This is the Ultimate German Muscle car 560 SEC AMG

Join this channel to get access to perks: These days, AMG is an absolute juggernaut. It’s the performance division of a world-class automaker, the driving force behind years of F1 dominance, and they are one of the best engine builders out there. Now in the 80s Mercedes and AMG were two different companies. AMG was a tuning house specializing in building and tuning engines, later expanding into customizing Mercedes-Benz vehicles and producing unofficial accessory and upgrade packs. With that said, this machine AMG’s built back in 1989 – this is the 560 SEL AMG 6.0 – and it was and still is one of the most badass cars to ever come out of Germany. Now the normal Mercedes 560 SEC was already a beast for its time. At the time it was Mercedes most powerful production car. Powered by V8 that made 275bhp and 336lb ft, But that’s before AMG got their hands on the car. AMG took the 5.6 liter V8 from the 560 and completely rebuild the engine. They bored it out to 6.0 liters, modified crankshaft, added a set of AMG-exclusive, DOHC, four-valve heads, as well as a new intake and full exhaust. The result, well she went from producing 275hp to 380hp on top of that AMG managed to push the torque figure up to 410 ibs or 550nm from a naturally aspirated V8. The increase in power meant that this new 560 SEC AMG would be able to complete the sprint from 0 to 60 in just under 6 seconds which is also around a second faster than the normal 560SEC. Now a sub 6 second time is proper impressive for a big 1.8 ton manual car of the 80s. #AMG #560sec #mercedes #mafia
