The 1967 Mercedes-Benz 600 Grosser is the epitome of automotive luxury and engineering excellence, a car that redefined the very notion of what a flagship vehicle could be. Introduced as the most advanced and luxurious automobile of its time, the 600 Grosser was the world’s most expensive car at launch and remained Mercedes-Benz’s flagship model for an extraordinary 18 years. It set new benchmarks for craftsmanship, performance, and prestige, making it the ultimate choice for royalty, world leaders, and the elite of the entertainment industry.
At the heart of this engineering marvel lies Mercedes-Benz’s legendary 6. 3-litre M100 V8 engine, the first V8 ever produced by the marque. This powerplant delivered astonishing performance with effortless refinement, enabling the 600 to move with authority and grace while providing a supremely quiet and comfortable ride. The advanced hydraulic system powered nearly every feature, including the windows, seats, doors, and even the boot lid, reflecting the car’s revolutionary approach to luxury and convenience.
Every Mercedes-Benz 600 was painstakingly hand-built to ensure perfection in every detail, making each example a bespoke creation tailored to its owner. This particular Grosser is presented in a striking Blue-Black exterior, exuding understated elegance, while the interior is nothing short of breathtaking. The sumptuous Tobacco leather seating is beautifully complemented by rich Burr Walnut woodwork, rear privacy curtains, and factory-installed air-conditioning—a rare and coveted feature in its time.

From John Lennon and Elvis Presley to Elizabeth Taylor and global heads of state, it became the vehicle of choice for those who demanded nothing less than perfection. Its presence on the road was, and still is, unmatched—a statement of power, sophistication, and taste that resonates to this day.
This 1967 example is a shining testament to the innovation and opulence that defined the 600 Grosser.
