1:18 AUTOart MERCEDES BENZ 280 SE COUPE 1968 in black is coming…
AUTOart will soon release MERCEDES BENZ 280 SE COUPE 1968, in black, scale 1:18. Expected price is around 115 $ / 77 € .
The 280SE 3.5-liter cars were Mercedes-Benz’s first V8-powered sports cars. A combination of elegant styling coupled with effortless performance made them highly desirable and they were every bit as prestigious as their competitors. From the outset, the emphasis was on quality and the cars featured a new interior with more wood and leather upholstery as the standard. The 3.5-liter V8 engine was highly advanced, with electronic fuel injection and transistor ignition. It marked a turning point in Mercedes-Benz engine manufacturing. The high price that these cars retailed at reflected the quality and expense of their production and ensured their relative rarity. Even by Mercedes-Benz’s efficient standards, output was limited, thereby enhancing the car’s rarity and prestige.
These large and accommodating 3.5-liter Mercedes are ideal for carrying four adults and luggage on long-distance trips in absolute comfort.

HI there, nice work but may I point out two things:
Firstly I hope the headrests are removable, they somehow look out of scale to the rest of the car – secondly the 280se coupe did not have solid red tail lights, they had orange for the turn signal portion and red for brake and running lights. Thanks
Chris.
This model is not of the 3.5 v8 it’s the high grill 2.8 straight 6.
Beautiful model all the same. I would love to see a good model of the v8. There’s gap in the market…

Hi there, this is a wonderful work. I myself have a 1969 black and red interior 280 SE Coupe two doors. It has solid red tail lights.

Has anyone seen a 1:18 or 1:24 diecast model of a Mercedes 300SE coupe? I have the real one and have been searching for a model of it.
