The 1998 Mercedes-Benz S320 for the US market represents the ultimate refinement of the W140 (Phase-II) series, offering the perfect blend of royal luxury and mechanical durability. This model is powered by the popular 3.2-liter M104 six-cylinder in-line engine, which in the US specifications produces 217 hp . Thanks to the new 5-speed electronic gearbox , the car offers a much smoother and more efficient march on the highway compared to earlier versions. As a last year production vehicle, the S 320 comes equipped with all the time technologies such as thermal double glazing, assisted door sealing and a chassis that was designed without any savings, making it still today one of the most comfortable limousines in the world.
