We Found A Crazy Rare Twin-Turbo V12 AMG Mercedes Sitting At A Salvage Auction & It Sounds Amazing!

- I've always wanted a Twin-Turbo V12 AMG Mercedes and so my Buddy Sam took me to a Copart Salvage Auction to check out one of the best. They only made 52 of these cars in 2006 and it's one of the most sought after V12 AMG in existence. This super low mileage example started right up and due to some exhaust "modifications," it sounds amazing.
Stay tuned until the end for a big hint on the project car that Sam and I and possibly another guy are working on. 0-60 in 3 seconds!

Ok, real talk. How much is this car worth?
Seriously No idea Man.
Probably 20-27k
No more than $15K 😎
30k on internet doug demuro said
I wouldnt buy it for over 13k, its a very nice car and is one of the most rare Mercedes ever especially it being a CL
Sell the Vette and get that V12. Only you have the ability to bring it back to life. A rare car like this needs to be saved. You have the tools, the technology. You can make it stronger, faster, better....
I second that as well....go for it boy!
Why sell what would be one of his most reliable for one that would be the opposite?
Thanks Oscar
@@Roderickdl Uh? Because he runs a UA-cam channel for the purpose of content creation? What kind of question is this?
@@MrCarGuy it comes a guy who's a fan of C5 Corvettes more than CL65 AMGs.
4:52 "I don't think I've physically touched a Rolls Royce in my life." 2min earlier : Touching a Rolls Royce.
Haha, so true
@@LegitStreetCars I'm glad your there...you should definitely should get that Cully and let V tuned work on it
Urabouy you obviously dont understand how people make money on youtube then
Dude.... Just sell whatever you can AND SAVE this Twin Turbo V12 CL65AMG
Like.... PLEASE!!!!
Yeah definitely.. they should buy it cut the roof of and make-it convertible.. to be even more special like a unique hoonicorn ! ;0)
10:18 CL Starts here
thank you
This is definitely one of Mercedes AMG’s best cars
That V12 is amazing!
BASITH PH it’s a bi turbo, adds saving feature~on demand horsepower
Nothing but problems very fasst after u get through the turbo lag and the 1/4 its in the low 12z i believe not that impressive and yes its a gas guzzler foresure
The CL65 has aged gracefully
It still looks good to this day
Von_Nightmare_ Luciferian yeah the early 00’s and before is like the peak of Mercedes
BASITH PH
Until you look inside, looks like something from the 80's
3 name changes allowed every 90 days. Those are the best
@@leebenstead7171 yup outdated looking now
@3 name changes allowed every 90 days. what about the 02 pontiac transam ?
a rare car like this cl65 needs to be saved, one of the greatest mercedes ever made it looks amazing!!!
In Middle East those things r like civics they’re everywhere
@0 9 Shut the fuck up
It is a cool and rare car, to be sure. But one of the greatest? Ehh... I for one rather think about the 300SL Gullwing or some of the other oldtimers there. Call me crazy if you will, but I like those old cars - those were really built to last forever (almost). Whereas the newer ones, though still durable, have so many gadgets, bells, and whistles that some of them are sure to break. The more tech a machine has, the more things can break. PLUS you can still get parts for those oldtimers I spoke about earlier.
A fact. It's the sister vehicle for the S class
Looks like that CL65 met an angry ex-wife
@Stimpy&Ren seems plausible. the windshield/hood look like a baseball bat was taken to it though.

oplix 😜😛🤪
Buy it for the motor and m275 swap an e55 w211 !! Pls and thnx
yes deffinitelly yes.
Pls
HOLY shit!
Now, THERE'S an idea!
...why didn't I think of that?
Please do not swap E55, but some less rare w211. Wouldn't be first tho, Speedriven and Brabus can help maybe with parts. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brabus_E_V12
S211 wagon swap, obviously!
Great AMG content - keep it coming.
There's a strong AMG following out there that is untapped.
UA-cam need to stop with the double ads. Or we’ll raid them instead.
Lol
@@Legend-lc9bv oh no cia

How in do you think creators get paid? SMFH
Just pay premium lol
I love it!! Earliest mass produced vehicle with hydraulic suspension that I can think of is the Citroen DS from the mid 1950s. The hydraulic suspension automatically leveled and also lowered down when parked for easy access. The hydraulic suspension also allows for wheel/tire changes without jacking the car up.
It also had headlights that turned with the steering wheel that I believe were hydraulically operated as well.
Yes! definitly get the CL65. Get a cheap CL500 as a donar and swap the body work. It would be an awesome build
SK8215 this guy definitely knows what he is talking about.
that is what i was thinking !
exactly my thought
is it possible? I mean have you seen someone doing this?
It's a 3 door ROLLS ROYCE which are rare normally got rear doors for chauffeured clients
Yep, they didn't even notice which is laughable considering they were seeing it in the flesh. "Car guys".
@@DiscoFang so many cars man. Hard to know everything
It's a Silver Shadow Mulliner Park Ward (which were later badged as a Corniche). These were/are crazy expensive, even for a Rolls Royce.
jonathanrabbitt pretty rough and if anything was long with the hydraulics it would turn into a nightmare
The rollers used a Citroen hydraulic suspension licensed to them. They used it in all rollers. Citroen was fantastic for the hydraulic suspension esp in the DS 21 Pallas I was always happy to own.
Citroën DS had Hydropneumatic suspension in 1950's, they started putting it in passenger cars, so Rolls and Mercedes adopted it later on high end models.
I believe RR paid royalties to Citroën to use their suspension tech under license
I see a collab is happening. I like it. If Rich walked in your shot when you mentioned the secret project it's totally a Tesla.
It is a white Tesla, I saw it in his driveway
You need to meet me in Florida to look at some of those awesome cars. We can take Samcrac out to McDonalds lol.
Auto Auction Rebuilds lmao randy
your the man Randy
No way randy you need to come to chicago lol
You need to evacuate Florida now then talk cars later after the hurricane is gone.
@extremedrivr you think he didn’t already fucking know that?
That's an early coachbuilt and rare Rolls Royce Cornich Coupe. Starting to get valuable. Well worth a resto and it has pneumatic suspension like Citroens.
James may has 1
If it's pneumatic suspension, why does it have a bleeder valve?
Whole lotta mineral fluid.
The Roller has hydraulic suspension. Rolls did a deal with Citroen to use their design princable. And then developed it to their requirments
And the DX is still special today.
TheMidrev DS
That Rolls is a Silver Shadow Mulliner Park Ward 2 door saloon (wow what a mouthful). 6.25L all alloy V8 and quite rare. Height adjustable hydraulic suspension all round. '70 onwards they had a 6.75L engine , no height adjust on the front and was called the Corniche. That's what I've got sitting in my shed waiting for some love!
friends have an ex Australian Governor Generals Silver Shadow - iirc a 67 too - but longer than standard. Apparently the suspension on theirs is heavier duty and even more expensive then getting them to make the standard ones.
Welp - definitely a '67 since thats the only year they were offered in the 60s in long wheelbase here. There are 10.
Looking forward to seeing some content of your Rolls!
Oh, and it'll be also great if you get together with Sting and Copeland for some 'The Police' tribute 😉 haha.
More info on the wikipedia:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_Silver_Shadow#Silver_Shadow
"A distinctive feature was a high-pressure hydropneumatic suspension system licensed from Citroën, with dual-circuit braking and hydraulic self-levelling suspension. At first, both the front and rear of the car were controlled by the levelling system; the front levelling was deleted in 1969 as it had been determined that the rear levelling did almost all the work.[4] Rolls-Royce achieved a high degree of ride quality with this arrangement."
@Colin Ashby Yup will be. Might have to lose some weight first as apparently the camera adds a few pounds and I'm a fat Bastard already!
Arthur Tussik can bring this AMG's body back to factory condition in no time
he could probably have the metal work done in a couple days. that man is a machine
Auther tussik, #legend
Arthur the classic Soviet work horse, getting job done without tools and procedures
haha right he can do it in no time
6:38 that loader was hauling some ass!
2:14 yes thats right. The Mercedes 600 (W100) had this feature. Even the trunk lid and the sunroof were operated by hydraulics.
It is pretty amazing to see no ABC light or Check Engine light on the 65. 👍🏼👍🏼
Hydropneumatic suspension they licensed from Citroen. They also had an auto leveling system.
You're referring to the Rolls, yes?
Which fluid used RR?
@@autobreza7131 yeah the rolls
Also used to power the brakes (on Citroen at least).
@@GsrItalia my buddy has worked on a couple, says it's all mineral oil. Weird eh?!
LOL! Samcrac creeping in @0:14! Great video @LegitStreetCars. Thanks for sharing.
Cool channel, car is a classic. I just purchased a 2003 Audi RS6 and it's incredible. Twin-turbo V8. Similar hydraulic issues tho but the past owner installed coilovers. Merc is worth it IMO
Do you see a red sls there? If so that's my friend's car.
Maybe some scaffolding fell on the AMG. Could explain the odd damage and no Airbag deployed.
I think both those MB rolled over at some point
Late in the day but (from England) I can tell you that this Rolls is an early Silver Shadow Coupe, the predecessor of the Corniche. Early Shadows had all round hydraulic self levelling which was deleted after 1971 in favour of rear only height control. ostensibly to upgrade the handling but really to cheapen manufacture. This car was coachbuilt by Mulliner-Park Ward, a bankrupt traditional coachbuilder which RR had recently taken over. The colour is not British Racing Green - that would be much darker and non-metallic. It clearly once had a vinyl covered roof, fashionable in the late sixties, and was probably a British delivery as it's RHD. A nice car, still cheap for what you get, and restoration is only now becoming viable as values slowly increase. Great channel too!
love the contents on your videos, always intriguing!
That CL startup gave me a fright 😨... I was listening through my home theater😏
Please buy the CL! It would be great to see you revive it. I always loved the CL
How cool is this !! Samcrac is really very good. Great to see him here with Alex
someone probably hit the CL 65 with a golf club, probably a women, which got cheated
Previously owned by Tiger Woods 🤣
I’m fairly certain that CL65 had multiple collisions with multiple baseball bats and/or blunt objects. Easiest explanation of the isolated dents, smashed windows, etc.
Yep. It’s vandalism. From the owner perhaps? Tired of the looming brake, tire, reset service light bill, etc.
Or, this car has maybe trickled down from an expensive, garaged neighborhood to a run down apartment building in a blighted part of town, and it caught the eye of a jealous ex-girlfriend’s husband.
Wait for its autopsy results.
Todd Lloyd I’d vote for the jealous ex-girlfriend’s husband.
Hit an animal I think. A Cow or Deer which ended up on the roof.
If you buy it you have the makings of a Pagani Zonda S chicago style. You will just have to find someone to weld you a Tipo Birdcage frame and your in!
Great video. The CL's drive like nothing else. Especially like the Alabama Crimson Tide shirt. Roll Tide!!
I didn’t realize they were that rare. We had one at my work a long time ago, I loved that car. It was white on black. Funny about the skunky smell, I noticed that
Hot damn Samcrac got you to Copart AND McDonalds?!?!
I'm a cheap date I guess
Randy you love Mercedes you need one in your life
Thats crazy, this place is literally less than a mile or so away from my house. Ive picked parts from the junkyard down the road for my old 3000gt and honda civic. Its cool to have a channel i watch post content that i actually recognize from my everyday life.
My dad bought this car 2 years ago and has fallen in love with it you get the coil overs thats the way to go. And my dad says if you get it it will spoil ever car you'll ever own. Its a hard car to beat! Buy it!!!
But then you don’t get the features of the normal suspension
I wouldn't buy to restore. Rather I would gut the driveline and come up with a sleeper to drop it in.
Or replace the drivetrain in a cheap to buy CL500.
Was thinking the same... Buy both the RR coupe and the Benz. Take all the underpinnings of the Benz and gem them in the RR
Yes, 600bhp 60's roller
That Rolls Royce, Doesn't that mean the insurance called it a total of it's at the auction ?
Not all cars are totaled at the auction. Any car for any reason can be sold at auction
3:20 At that time, "TD" was for Estate Diesel.
The "T" stands for a German word for Estate / Station wagon / 2-volume type of car.
Diesel was for the Diesel Engines.
Than, with the addition of Turbos, the added a big sticker stating "TURBODIESEL" on the right, much like "CDI" in the 2000s.
E was for the Electronic injection of Petrol.
So, there are some with TE, and other with only T.
Hey Alex , been away for a while but now I’m back, I can resume watching your channel!
Nice cameo, the Mercedes looks like it vandalized with a baseball bat
Mate, if you think 10k is acceptable then please place a bit! Nice to see you're friends with Sam n Rich
Hi Alex. Love the channel. Why not swap the guts and interior in a another CL body...would be something different to see as well
Ah man, I love it when UA-camrs collaborate, its great seeing so many of you guys all hanging out just having a blast! I am a new viewer, following the Samcracc side of this video haha, binge watching your stuff in 3...2....1....
Thanks Blair!! Sam and I have some more videos coming soon.
I feel so bad for that beautiful AMG sitting under the sun like that.
The body of the drug dealer who used to drive the AMG.. hit the roof when he sort of fell of a high balcony...... :)
Yes Officer. This post right here
Umm it was suicide officer, he had a high level of drugs in his system. Yeah, that’s right. No I don’t know how that balcony door glass got broken or the railing got bent officer lol.
Talk about the ultimate theme park for dads, what a day out😍🥰❤️
Technical info: the front A-pillar reinforcement is high-strength steel, the C-pillar aluminium. The roof, which includes the C-pillar "cover", is also aluminium. Meaning, you would have someone who could weld aluminium and find out how they joined both reinforcements, in case the rear one(s) is damaged, as obviously you can't weld steel with aluminium.
My advice: leave it - am a C215 owner myself, and you want them as perfect as possible. BTW, the 55K is way more exciting to own long-term than the sedated 65TT, whose appeal wears off quite quickly.
TD stands for "Touring Diesel", which are the wagons. It's common for people to assume it stands for "Turbo Diesel." That one's just a turbocharged 300D
Deffo turbodiesel. Mercedes made turbodiesel cars from back in the 1970's
@@classicrestouk My 1982 300D is a turbo diesel, where is the T? They left it off because it is a sedan not a wagon. Who corrects someone without looking it up lol
That was a mulliner roller. They do aftermarket stuff on rolls. Extra levels of luxury etc. not sure about the suspension though. I'd definitely buy that bad boy.
No... mulliner works with Bentley this custom is by another company
we had a 200e mercy from the 80s, absolutely loved it
Really cool videos bro just started watching them keep it up 👍
F it, I'd buy it just for the engine. Are you kidding? Get a cheap CL as a donor and swap over all the good stuff.
If only it was that easy lol
@@benardjenkins6636 True that, but much easier than trying to fix the roof on that CL65. ;)
If the V12 goes for
Even though I'm not much of a Merc guy, I couldn't stop looking when I first saw one of these in Abuja, Nigeria.....It looks like nothing else on the road. 20 years in, this thing will be a rare collector.
I saw someone comment about getting an S65, and I agree. It has the same wonderful engine, and can just as easily be swapped to a custom coil over setup.
I've got a bone to pick with you, good sir. I took your advice and used eManualOnline and boy was that a mistake. Let me explain because I'm sure you're going to want to hear this.
I have a 2014 Ram 2500 4X4 w/6.7 Cummins. I ordered what was claimed to be the service and repair manual for this vehicle. Well, the first time they sent me a manual for a 2003 Cobra King dirt bike. So I contacted them to let them know there was an error. They responded with a link to DL another manual, but this time for "2009-2014 dodge ram" which is a bit strange because over that period of time there were drastic changes between the 1500s alone so it's odd that they'd be all included in one manual. Anyways, I start looking through this "manual" and it's literally over 17,000 pages of random information on various models throughout that year range and lacks huge swaths of information, like nothing on any of the suspension or front axle which is what I need it for. It really looked more like someone photocopied a Chiltons manual and complied it into a huge pdf. No table of contents, or any organization. Just random pages of information and nothing complete for any year or model.
So I again reach out to customer service and in the period of 18 hours they send me the same pdf just renamed six different times. I continue to explain that this doesn't cover my truck and they tell me that this is all they have... and no mention of refunding my money. So I tell them specifically that I'd like a refund since they obviously do not have what they sold me. They then tell me that "we have another manual, which is software driven. That manual definitely includes your model. I can set that up for you if you wish." Clearly this is a bait-and-switch. I don't want anything but what was advertised, which is a pdf service and repair manual for a 2014 Ram 2500 4X4. Now all of a sudden, after 18 hours of them sending me the wrong manual, six times over in hopes I'd eventually go away, they "definitely" have the manual. I just need to get their software and have one of their techs set it up? Yeah, no thanks. This has all the hallmarks of a scam.
It's been awhile now since I've requested a full refund and they've not responded. I honestly can't believe you're recommending this to your subscribers. Damn, now I'm burned on $20 and I still need to get the specifics for pulling apart my front axle. Thanks Alex, I hope they pay well. 🤷♂️
Monster RAM lookup dodge I know ford has a shop manual from ford you and rent for like $21 for 3 days
Swap the engine into a W210 E55 or E430 sport. I would really love to see a V12 in one of those for once
Get it ! V12 sounds very special
Funny I just bought a 2014 gl550 this week for my wife, tis super nice. Eurocharged tune gets it to 600tq to the wheels and 460 to 470 hp to wheels.
I will love to that cl 65 being restored , I think you should get the car
You need to get your hands on that merc asap
I always enjoy your visits to the car sales yards. You show the different cars available not just Prima Donna cars. Lots of fun and very interesting. Thanks.
I own an amazing cl 65 2008 with 100 k miles. Looks and runs as NEW.The best car I ever had. My favourite. The engine used alone is worth 15k the gear box at least 10k. Do the math.... Undervalued beast . What a car. What an amazing torque filled drive.
Maybe i am wrong, but Citroen DS should be the first stock cars with hydraulic suspension. Which were adjustable too.
Its in my nature to just start fixing mercedes 😂😂😂😂 I actually laughed out loud
Lol I loved that the blk Tesla pirate dude is at the end!!! We live in a killer era!! Take away the UA-cam culture these 2awesome , passionate car guys would have never crossed paths !!! Love it !!
I bought a 07 SL65 8 years ago and have loved it. Worth every cent. Not that many things have gone wrong and after it was Renntech'd it became a total monster. Has to have traction control on to even drive it. They are extremely comfortable also.
I thought this would be an early CL63 V12. Those are RARE
Yaseenshuja. The CL63 badge is Mercedes way of saying the car is a V8. The 65 badge identifies the car as a V12. It also identifies the cars as AMG builds as the factory cars are badged CL500 for V8's, and CL600 for V12's. This badging covers both the 215 and 216 models. The S class is the 220 model and subsequent 4 door models. The CLS models are built on E class platforms, not S class, so a CLS63 is a very different beast to a CL63, but both are V8's built by AMG.
Yaseenshuja; Sorry dude, just checked some AMG figures, and you are right, there were some V12's built in the early nineties, and badged as C63's. The production numbers are crazy low, like 23 or something, but they are still there. Maybe they rationalized the badging after this.
Andrew Longfield yeah there is VERY little data about the v12 6.3 cars. All I know is they were double digit production numbers and used a modified v12 that was originally the 5.8 v12
8:28 Exactly! In real german pronounce it like "day-sin-yo"
Extremely rare find, you should definitely buy it. Body panels are easy to replace, but that motor in great condition, is priceless
Mid '60s RR had hydraulic power throughout like the MB 600 limousines.
Dude I work for this exact location, and I've seen this car.
beware gravity where is this at?
@@alax8985 Elgin , IL right off 20. It's a massive facility stretches miles long.
"Mom took me to the Junkyard" It sounds like a video worth making.
yea, single parent household growing up. i think he asked his mom to take him so he could fix the family car
@@gregh7457 the way he said it about sitting in the cars and using his imagination sounded more like a pleasure trip to the jy not a business trip. Nontheless there is a story to be told.
@@drucifer_too lol, perhaps but i personally went to the junkyard for the purpose of getting parts, even in my teenage years.
Great video and great channel. You've earned yourself another sub! Keep it up! 👍
Thanks brother!
Interesting! Back in the days when I had a Citroën they always talked about the hydropneumatic suspension and that RR had the same. I was like yeah right! Now I have seen it for the first time!more than 30 years later. Thanks :-)
“ Rich builds “ walks through at the end.....could it be a Tesla ? 🙀
Maybe that P100 they saw
That Rolls Royce is a rare “Mulliner Park Ward” version of the Corniche. It’s a coach built car. James May has one in deep burgundy.
I like the color, "British Rustin' Green"!
If my dad would see That cullinan he would say I’m scared to sit in it 😂
Buy the CL65! But make sure that you get VTuneds number from Samcrac before you do!
Hydro-pneumatic suspension licensed from Citroen.
What a beauty. Keep her alive Alex!
You did the very smartest thing by bringing SaM the man into the equation!!!
The rolls Royce had hydraulic steering, suspension, and brakes. I think I am correct, not sure!
my honda civic has hydraulic steering its called power steering
Nice vests, guys. You guys gonna do some highway repair on the side? Just kidding. 🙃 GREAT video as always, Alex and already a HUGE fan of SamCrac's vids. Keep it up, guys!
So on the 300D, that designates a 3liter turbo diesel sedan. The 300TD were station wagons/estates. The 300CD were coupes.
An M275 straight piped is practically orgasmic. It's surprisingly quiet. Just a stock S600 I had with the rear part of the exhaust removed sounded like a Lamborghini. 😂
this guy walks by a new miata like he didnt even see it...
It’s an RX5
There is a CL65 with 100k miles in CA right now for $6300 BIN... No body damage. On Copart
They dont hold their value
Very interesting. Good luck. You're my favorite automobile UA-camr. Looking forward to the next video on the DeLorean.
Thanks to this video 65 AMG prices just skyrocketed. 🙏🏻
