The 1964 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE, equipped with the 3.75 rear-axle option, was the fastest and most performance-oriented variant of the W112 series. This vehicle is powered by the legendary M189 engine, a 2996 cm3 Gasoline engine with aluminum block and mechanical injection Bosch, which produces 170 hp / 168 HP / 125 kW at 5400 rpm and a 249 Nm torque at 4000 rpm. Thanks to the longer axle ratios (3.75), this car reaches a top speed of 200 km/h , making it one of the fastest limousines of the time. The pneumatic (airborne) suspension ensures that, despite the high speed, the vehicle maintains a level of royal comfort, while the 4-speed manual gearbox allows for more dynamic control over engine power.
