1972 MERCEDES-BENZ 600 SWB LIMOUSINE
Local physician and car collector, Dr. Shu Cheuk, was very familiar with the finest, and had an impressive stable of fine automobiles as proof. However, his ultimate prize had still eluded him: the finest Mercedes-Benz 600 that money could buy. In the early 1980s he focused his full energies into an exhaustive search for the finest Mercedes-Benz 600 in the country. After viewing and rejecting many potential candidates, in 1983 he finally determined the car before you to be the ultimate 600, discovering it at Prestige Motors which had acquired it from its original owner. He then proceeded to personally drive the car back to his St. Louis estate where it was lavished with unwavering and unceasing care and maintenance. Finished in much of its original and still spectacular Mercedes Silver Gray Metallic, and graced with its undyed, still soft and supple blue leather hides; this 1972 Mercedes-Benz 600 is most certainly one of the most well maintained, most well documented, and most incredibly original to be found anywhere at any price. Its powerful 6.3-liter V-8 hums smoothly while whisking you to your destination in the most opulent luxury imaginable in its day. In fact, this car was determined by the motoring press to be the undisputed finest car in the world; even trumping the highly revered Rolls-Royce. Fitted with such options as a powered sunroof, Becker Grand Prix stereo, front and rear air conditioning, it even has its original Stabilo Therm flask and crystal shot glasses. It is a truly remarkable 600 virtually without peer. Public opportunities to acquire 600s do not often present themselves, as most exchange hands privately and without fanfare; making this an extremely rare and unusual occasion to add this incredible car to your collection. All systems are in top form, including the legendary hydraulics system and air ride. This car wants for nothing but a discriminating collector who understands both what this car represents, and the uniqueness of this opportunity. This 1972 Mercedes-Benz 600 is ready to drive, show, admire, and watch appreciate in value as one of the most desirable and collectible cars the world has even known. Such limited production, artisan craftsmanship, and exclusivity mean that a car of this quality and prestige make this one of the best automotive investments in the world today. In fact, classic cars have proven to be among the most resilient and rewarding investments in recent years with the Historic Automobile Group Index (HAGI) jumping 39% in 2013 and posting gains of 395-percent over the last 10-years.

We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.
We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.
Terms available up to 144 Months
