Yakuza Special S72 AMG Widebody: The Emperor of the Wangan

  • Опубліковано 19 тра 2024
  • AMG Japan is known as one of the craziest tuners of the 1990s. They took the engineering precision of Affalterbach to the extreme. With only 7 examples of the C140 S7.2 AMG thought to exist, all of them hail from AMG Japan. This particular S72 however, may be the most special, as it is the only known widebody. With a 199 Blauschwarz Metallic finish and its massive AMG M120, this car was undoubtedly a top speed specialist in Tokyo's Wangan racing folklore.

    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!

    I think Vico honed in on what makes Wangan racing one of the most impressive automotive feats in recent history. It wasn't just cars that could touch 200mph, they could maintain that speed for 30+ minutes and then drive comfortably to a job or business meeting. All while utilizing 1990s era technology! And let's not forget that many of the best JDM tuners were inspired by the German cars and German tuners. Even Nakai San of RWB started on Toyotas, but now builds Porsches (and Mercedes, he dailys an R129). Also, while on the topic of JDM Mercedes tuners, don't forget Auto Fashion Factory Spirit!

    Great documentary episode guys, kinda miss the daily vlog style bit this is more professionally presented. I couldn't agree more, I own 2 JDM AMGs and both have the options where the speed limiter is raised and one of my car has the similar digital radar display (supercat). What I like about JDM AMG is they often has all of the optional specs & features available and normally the car is in pristine condition compared to EU AMG (used vs. Used). Mine comes with Volk Racing wheels which makes it even more JDM 😁

    C140, C140, C140 was done right you can't complain about how they built that car and when it was build it was one of a kind, from the b-less pillar to the v12. AMG Japan and its tuners really did an amazing job on this car. We're glad it's going in the museum for us to see. #ThePatinaCollective #Benzonly

They were never about racing nor had any interest in enhancing the performance of their bikes. It was a street gang which acted as an entry way to yakuza.
