Koenig Specials SEL - The 1980's Most Insane Four-Door Sedan
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- Koenig Specials is known for their wild body kits with the iconic side strakes - a feature that would see them sued by Ferrari. Prior to that lawsuit, Koenig Specials modified limited numbers of the Mercedes C126 SEC, and even fewer of the W126 SEL. We have several Koenig SECs in the collection, but driving our two Koenig Specials SELs feels on another level. The blend of 4-door comfort with the extravagant optics of the Koenig body kit is just unmatched. This particular red beast is a car we restored and customized in the Middle East prior to joining us in the Kingdom of Boca!

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!
Imagine having to find rear tires for this one. What a beauty!
Not as hard as you think.
Just stunning, that car screams Miami in the 80s. Vico and bro's killing it as always
Man, that makes me want to work harder now. I want to build an Early 2000s GM collection.
That interior is maybe my favourite of the collection
I would Change nothing
Just fix the speedometer and thats all
The red lines are beautiful 🤩🤩🤩
Gorgeous car!
80's big pimpin' style
Dope dealin' style.
Such a beauty
Yea!
Looks incredible. Love these deep dive videos you do of the collection and love that you are sharing history with us. Shout out to Patina Collective.
Thanks!
This one is becoming my fav one in the collection for sure!
Great car!
Stunning Koenig !! Love the cars brother Humdiallah
Thank you!
Amazing review and info.
Everytime I watch these I have to go out in the Benz for a drive, vico on the system of course.
patina boys
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very very clean car, always loved the Koenig Specials and that red with white interior is beautiful! However I did seem to notice some fisheye in the rear bumper and also noticed around the gas cap and rear it looks like it could use a good buffing 😮 I am sure this was not a cheap build, regardless still a beauty!!❤
These cars are simply masterpieces!
the red and white beauty
Love all the rides and always been a fan of the crazy tuners. Unfortunately the build quality is sometimes not the best.
Insane once again. Big up the patina Boyz!!
Big up
I hope you can give us some back story on some of these cars.
Coming for sure
Another masterpiece, keep going up
🔥🔥🔥
Stunning as always....
Koenig special, I'm sure we ain't got one here in SA. Can't find one for sale in the net either. Nice machine. Much love from 🇿🇦
Bunch in Europe !
That's dope il keep an eye out. Been looking for one, I could only find carat C126's and one 300SE with a full carat body kit and interior fittings ❤ thanks patina 👌🏾
customBENZ ケーニッヒ懐かしい車です😎💯 190E 4ドアsaloon
OZホイール good🎉素晴らしい車を有難うございます♪JAPAN👍💯❤️
In a way it’s almost more special than the more common C126 wide bodies, interior is inane too 👌🏼
You not lying!
I believe the koenig kit is more suited on a w126 than the c126.
True!
I love ❤this car but it’s really hard to find.
Should be the 1980s’ not 1980’s. Grammar cop here. Thank you.
We in germany at this era it was complete the best time and the iconic cars Pop up from the start today never ever give it These cars for other brands,this car are only the 1 of ones in the timeline,all the big guys on the strip habe drive this in the redlight and these cars never beating until today,and sad that it nothing Company give it today that makes this kind tuning on other cars ...sorry for my english
wish youd wear the seat belt, but sweet Koenig
Love it however I would switch all the US lights to the euro, especially the ambers, however I don’t have one 😂
We do not agree! Lol
Great great car, but the rims lets it down a bit ind my view.
Big Daddy Kane had this car ...
What engine is in that one?
Stock m117
🐐
Hi Guys from Patina I m wondering if you would be interested in buying another one 500 SEl KS i could give you some contact i suppose
okay just one little thing. its Koenig not Koonig
Has anyone from Koenig reached out? Even ex employees who build these cars? Love it
Yes Steffen came by in a past episode he was one of the last ppl to close the doors at KS and built many of the cars in our collection.
🙌👍🔥🔥🔥
Another one...
Yea
Gross
🔥🔥
Love the content & the contribution to the car community! 🔥
Appreciate it!!
This SEL and the 190E are my favorite Koenig Specials 😍
Great picks!
This Köenig is fire🔥🔥🔥
I can’t imagine the sheer effort from Julio to paint correct that grille. Must’ve been so damn fiddley. Kudos to Julio!
appreciate u filming in 4k. please dont go back to 1080p! 4k is epic on big tvs. looks better than real life ha
GREETZ From Germany looking so nice without plates
that SLK from Brunei ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Is the engine also tuned or is it left stock? Is this based on a 560?
I re-watched this clip like 20 times. What a car, a king ! You explained everything so well,like you do in all your videos. Park it next to that beautiful yellow r129! Great video, thanks a lot. ps: what is the music you used in the video ? I tried looking it up but hard to find. Byeee
Glad you enjoyed it! The music is made exclusively for the channel and videos!
That's one bad boy right there
Them red seat belts is crazy for the 80s definitely before it’s time did they remove headlight washers for the kit ?
No wipers on the US spec lights !
Lovely car,beautiful.
How much $ is one of these ?
Around 100k
Legendary 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴
👌👌👌😎👍👍👍🏁
Pure art 💯
THAT Car in in its native ground! :-)
Sure is!
Seeing as money is no object. It would look awesome with fresh orange front indicator lenses and some fresh tail lights. These look a bit weathered, but awesome job guys!
Beautiful 🤩 car amazing cars these Koenig-Specials good video I have still got my 4door wide body SEL
Does the white dash affect visibility at all with the bright sun? Always been scared to put white on a dash since I'm in the south seems like it'll just block the whole damn windshield with the reflection
No we didn’t notice the reflection. Maybe in certain lighting… yet to see
@PatinaCollective beautiful build. Just curious was this an original kit that you guys had installed or was this a restoration of a period Koenig
@@SALTYSPITOONMOTORS restored!
@@PatinaCollective beautiful. Love the engagement from this channel very much looking forward to my first trip to the museum...good luck to you boys
One of the most beautiful Mercedes I have ever seen, that color is just perfect 👌so glad it's being taken care of in the collection.
One of the best !
where can I get this kit?
Legendary stuff
Big Benzes like this 126 are timeless pieces to be preserved
Incredible art
Trap BOOMING with this red sled
Facts!
The Biggest!
These Koenig cars have ages TERRIBLY! The standard Mercedes and AMG versions STILL.look great but these a
These are vulgar and grotesque!
THE coolest looking Benz’s from the 80’s!
El 560 sel azul es mucho mas bonito
Gracias!
