    6.9 advertised as 450SEL?

    I came across this eBay advert for a 450SEL, however, the VIN number seems to be a 6.9 -- and a very late production model. Can you guys confirm my suspicions? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Mercedes-Benz-450SEL_W0QQitemZ220514464129QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Cars?hash=item3357afb181
