The W126 generation brought new prestige to the already desirable Mercedes-Benz S-Class thanks to its combination of build quality, safety, luxury, aerodynamics, and technical sophistication. These characteristics were essentially unmatched in any other car and qualified the W126 as one of the finest cars in the world when it appeared in late 1979. The car’s intrinsic desirability was ideally suited to the conspicuous consumption demanded by consumers during the image-conscious 1980s and became one of the status symbols to have during the period.

This desirability had a very real basis: the W126 offered a long list of technical and luxury features ranging from ABS and airbags to automatic climate control, electrically adjustable orthopedic seats, deformable aerodynamic bumpers and much more. The car also marked the public’s first encounter with Chief Designer Bruno Sacco’s work, which combined a restrained,  and elegant but also modern and aerodynamic design language. Most importantly, it was unmistakably Mercedes-Benz design language that would come to define the marque for the next quarter century.

In late 1981, a pillarless coupe version appeared, marking the re-introduction of a model which had been absent from the previous generation of S-Class. It was even more aerodynamic than the sedan, while its $5500 higher price and less utilitarian bodystyle made it even more exclusive.

For the 1986 model year, all S-Class models were cosmetically facelifted and received new engines, with the new top of the line model being the coupe with the 5.5 liter M117 V8, the 560SEC. By the model’s final year, its MSRP had climbed to a hefty $85,000, well in excess of $200,000 today.

For the original owner of this car, however, that was not enough. The car was purchased new by Stephen Stills, of Crosby, Stills, and Nash, and immediately had the car sent to Canepa Design for AMG modifications after buying it new on the 4th of February 1991 at Gregg Motors in Santa Barbara, California. The Canepa modifications list was extensive, including AMG body kit (front and rear bumpers, side skirts and trunk spoiler), AMG wheels, AMG exhaust system including headers with Porsche 928 catalytic converters, AMG differential with 2.82 final drive ratio (compared to 2.47 originally), AMG shocks and springs, color coded brightwork, tinted windows, and many small detail updates. A binder outlining the modifications, including many photos taken during the build, is included with the car.

Stills retained the car for approximately 15 years and it has been enthusiastically owned since, with a substantial file of service invoices detailing the car’s service history is included with the car. Work performed in the last 11 years and 15,000 miles includes new shock absorbers, rebuilt transmission, rebuilt air conditioning system (compressor, receiver/drier, expansion valve), and various age related maintenance items such as new alternator, new radiator and hoses, new EHA valve, and more. In addition to the service records and build binder, the car also comes with a copy of its original window sticker as well as  its original books set and a signed copy (by all 3 members) of a Crosby, Stills & Nash vinyl album.
