- This is a new edit of a car chase scene in the film K-9 (1989), with music added by Frankie Goes to Hollywood ("Two Tribes"). The random shots of Jim Belushi yelling in his '66 Mustang have been removed.
The W126 in the clip was a grey market European-spec 1981-85 500SE in two-tone Lapis Blue Metallic (932)/Matt Gray Metallic (7007 or 7175) with a grey interior (unclear if it was velour, MB-Tex, leather, or cloth). At the time of filming, the car retained its original bumpers. But the headlights, corner lights, and taillights were all changed to North American versions, and the headlight wipers were removed.
I wonder what happened to this car.
Note to viewers: I have seen this video stolen and reposted several times on social media without credit (some users have even added their own watermarks on top of it). Please give me credit if you plan to repost this to your own account. My account is @shervinsgarage on Instagram. This is my own edit (I removed the scenes with Jim Belushi, I color-graded the footage, and I added the music on top). Reposting without credit is a scumbag move.
So many movies in the 90s had W126s being hooned around. It only made sense that when I was finally the owner of a 91 560SEL I did plenty donuts. For a big car it’s pretty nimble.
That's why this car is a barnfind.
Imaging doing the same thing with the current 2022 model of the S Class.. .
Do you think that the current generation Mercedes Benz S Class can do even half of what’s shown here in the video.
The cars nowadays can either be very luxurious and super thirsty for fuel or it can go really fast in a “straight line” apart from that nothing is good about the current generation models hell, I would trade my W220 S Class for this one any day!
That was typical of "gray-market" Benzes in the '80s. The lights and instrument cluster were changed to American spec, because that was needed to pass inspection in many states, but the bumpers were not changed.
New Mercedes can never compare to these tough as nails cars. That’s why you still see these driving around after 40-50 years especially the diesels which my folks have had plenty off. Twin turbo my ass! Give me an 85 300SD! Tell if you’ll still see a W222 rolling around in 30 years. Probably not.
I love these old cars.
that car is beautiful 😎
To me, one of the nicest cars in the world, even more beautiful than latest models
@@carlossony4064 yes, the latest models are nothing compared to this vehicle in my opinion
Yes indeed it is 😍
I used to own an identical '83 Benz. |t was a diesel and a bit of a rust bucket but for $500 it was the best "beater" I've ever had. They are really built like tanks.
A really slow tank
@@alejandrocastellanos1208 True. The car in this clip is a 500SE (5.0 litre V8) My 300SD could never drift like this! It took about 10 seconds at WOT for the turbo to spool up.
@@theautumnred those in movies are generally modified. About yours, was engine silent and unnoticeable smoke or noisy and bad for the air like most diesel engines used to be?
@@carlossony4064 She wasn't particularly loud and I never saw it "rolling coal" under heavy throttle like the big trucks. It was about as subdued as you would expect for a luxury brand.
Was a good car until it shat its transmission one fine day. (still limped home though)
Sold to a guy who put the engine in a Toyota 4Runner.
@@theautumnred thank you
I love this video so much i watch it over and over .Thanks for posting to me
Glad you like it!
Perfect combo Benz W126 and Frankie Goes To Hollywood 😍😍😍😍😍. Best regards from France
Franky goes to Hollywood!
Classic old Mercedes. Nice to see them driven like that. The way a car should be driven. Wish there were more professional drivers out on the roads like this bloke who can really drive a car ! A classic scene from a classic 1980s movie too ! Cool !
Classic comment from classic shit human of classic years from classic bitch-mom
@@alanmalan3819 just go and fuck yourself because no one else will. You are shit . You are a joke. Not a good joke. I have seen people well not real people like you before. You will always lose. Shit brain.
Hey fuckwit. Dropkick. Oh. Run boy run. Run hard. Go hide. Hope and pray you shit. Tell us what a fuckwit you rezlly are. Silence. Yeah thats right.
I try to imagine what scum and shit looks like. Posing as a human being. You. You asshole.
Do you live in a cave ? Or on a park bench ?
Considering how the bumper bit the ground in the jump - you can see it's bent up, and a gap appears between the hood and headlight, I bet the car was junked after the film.
I just noticed - It doesn't have a passenger side mirror!

That driver was on point ! I enjoy seeing that Benz work out like that, because they can do it !
Scenes from "K-9" movie, with James Belushi
The music goes wonderfully well with the video. Thank you for the quality of work.
You’re welcome!
the most beautiful Mercedes of all time !!!
Perfect edit and soundtrack!
Thank you!
Now thats a quality car. I bet on a modern SUV the plastic bumpers would have fallen right off.
Maybe they used an euro modell because the engine is much more powerful as the US versions which might come handy for a car chase scene. perhaps even a pre energy concept car from 1980. these models were on a totally different level in respect of reving and agility as prefacelift models after 1981 and accelerated even better than a facelift 560
A 500SE that someone ordered headlight wipers on but not the passenger mirror. Any W126 without a passenger mirror is not common since most were ordered with one and it was made standard in the later years of production.
I didn’t even notice that, you’re right.
Euro spec Mercedes s-class cars typically had velour or leather, I believe. MB-tex was typical in the north American market.
I love this actors; W126 and E38 (007)
It does not buckle like Anerican saloons of the era...
Those are fun hills above downtown San Diego.
Porque os carros alemães nunca aparecem nos filmes de Hollywood?
simples, porque os americanos querem anunciar seus carros
0:07 I love to hoon my w126 around.
500se (Euro) market car. Nice.
Driver is marvellous
My dad still drives his 1994 C180 which has 2 million km on it.
Those Germans really know how to build a car don't they ? We must give credit where credit is due. I wish I could buy a car like the Mercedes but I can't afford it damn........
One of The All Time Goats
No. I am not saying we should all drive on the road like this. What I mean is as an enthusiastic fanatic the Mercedes is a nice car. In this film a professional stunt driver is extracting its performance in a way which is very pleasing at least in my eyes. The average car driver is well average. Just average. Every day I see on our roads a very poor driving standard out there in the general community. This is very sad. It deeply saddens me. I like this film but more to the point watching the person driving this car so cleverly. Yes he crashed into the barn at the end but it was a deliberate stunt. Thus magnificent machine has a driver worthy of the name behind the wheel. A real proper well trained driver.
Mine has the same colour that's crazy 😄
The Class...
...The Motor!!! ❤❤❤🌟⭐💫
❤❤❤💪❤👍
I wish the average motorist had better training. This driver here is very good. Great driving. Great.
I had a 1988 300e = best car ever!
Lol that's the exact car that I have right now!
@@AbcAbc-sp1od lucky!!
@@killan001 ironic you should say that. I'm actually trying to sell it, because I can't afford an extra car lol
Like a tank
But seems like 1982-83 380Se or 300se
@Jari Benz No, a grey market European-spec 1981-85 500SE
Tank
0:06 what car is that in the garage?
The black one? It's a 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo.
You killed my brudda 😂

Don't try this at home!
@@theshervinator , no, here in good old Germany never! Only in the USA, and only in L.A.😄

When Mercedes Benz used to mean quality. Now they compete with Toyotas, Nissans and Hyundai's 😞😞🤷. They use to build them like tanks.
I’m guessin that some modifications to the suspension were made for these scenes, but I’m bettin not many. I love too that the continuity is spot on, Car never “changes” throughout 👍🏻
Oh I don't think so. W126 was a driver's car, all MBs then were. Imagine that in a 1983 Cadillac lol.
A real Mercedes, do it that with a 2023 model and all the fucking electronics blow ap in two minutes
Can't wait to do that in my 280s
Shame to destroy such a beautiful car.
It wasn’t treated well, but consider the fact that at the time of filming, these cars were almost new and there were plenty that were readily available everywhere (the W126 was still in production). It would definitely be a shame if someone did this to one today, but we’re talking about 1989, when this film was made. :)
0:018 if you jump this long and high any car would not drive anymore. And your back would break like a twig.
You’re probably right. The W126 is well-known for its durability, but it’s possible they reinforced its suspension for this stunt… or they used two identical cars.
@@theshervinator And no driver inside.
@Man ne amen. DAS BESTE UBER NECHE
bro that is an old mercedes. that thing will never break
I did a jump like that in my w210 running from the cops on a country back road, blew the passenger door and curtain air bags, put the radiator through the frame, and my back hurt like hell the next day but the car drove for months after that
Film?
K-9 (1989)
are This is movie .
Please name this movie
これはK-9ですね？ベンツ運転しているプロドライバー？さすが！日本では出来ませんね💦
I've never personally seen a 500se. I've owned several 420sel cars, though. Any love for those?
Nice low-mileage ones are starting to gain some attention and value, but any well-kept W126 is a good investment.
@@theshervinator I'm glad ppl are starting to appreciate the w126. It's been overlooked forever lol
What's the name of this film
K-9 (1989). Read the description.
Что за песня?
500se
Power of diesel
This one was a 500SE, so a gas-powered 5.0L V8.
ese es un tanque de querra
I cant imagin what went thru their heads when they said, oh its the 80s, we still dont need a right side mirror with all that trafic on the road. Not to mention that it looks ugly unsymetric.
Euro spec Mercedes could be ordered without it. I’ve even seen S Class Euro cars spec’d without AC; however, all US spec S Classes had a right side mirror and AC. As an aside, my 1979 US spec 240D also lacks a right side mirror but that was the entry model.
Mercedes easily could won the role of GENERAL LEE 😊
No, Way...
I was just reading about drifting
-My 2023 model car handles better

Where Brian O Connor chases down the shooter
I don't think my W126 would have stood up to such punishment, sometimes it struggled just to get me to work.
Lol
Name movie

Correct, 1988 or 1989 sequence. But it’s a fake prop plate used for the movie.

My pleasure to driver
US spec 80s headlights look so fucking ugly 😤 let alone the overelongated bumpers 🤮
I'm not sure why, but I find the euro bumpers to look too small. Like, they're not going to protect you in an accident, know what I mean?
@@AbcAbc-sp1od no the regular bumpers still provide a good amount of safety
@@joekurdish3385 I can see that. Just curious... how come the us bumper spec was so much tighter than the european?
@@AbcAbc-sp1od US safety regulations. as far as i know they must survive a crash with 6mph without any damage.
@@vornamenachname5589 oh yeah, that's right... The US has the 5mph bumper standard in the 80s! But then they lowered it to 2.5 mph lol. Forgot about that
Sacrilege 😢
