Captivated by the sporting success of the 300 SL (W194), which had been running since 1952, Austrian-American car salesman Max Hoffman persuaded Daimler Benz management to bring the 300 SL into serial production.
This is the car that would be unveiled at the New York Motor Show in February 1954.
The 300 SL (W198) is a car with an innovative design. For example, the chassis is tubular, very rigid and very light (50 kg).
It was one of the first GT (Grand Touring) cars, and one of the fasttest of its time. It could reach 250 km/h.
With its elegant and legendary design, the 300 SL (W198) can be recognized by its Butterfly or Gullwing doors. These are featured on this model and can be opened. This model has the fire engine red paint.
