In the early 1960s, Mercedes-Benz found itself in a bit of a predicament: Its luxury sedan, the W189 “Adenauer” was beginning to look distinctly outdated. Its heir, the “Grand Mercedes” 600 (W100) was under development, but not quite ready. To bridge the gap, the existing W111 series was shouted a special trim level with an extra helping of chrome, leather and wood, as well as the large aluminum-block 3.0 litre 6-cylinder engine and start-of-the-art technology including air suspension and power steering. Known by its internal code W112, the 300 SE became the rarest and most prestigious of the “tailfin” family. 5,202 sedans were built until 1965, plus an additional 1,546 with long wheelbase. The two-door variants, available from 1962 until 1967, were even rarer: Only 2,419 coupés and 708 convertibles were manufactured – in the truest sense of the word, largely by hand – and sold to affluent customers, mostly in the US and other export markets.
Build quality was nothing short of excellent, further strengthening the reputation Mercedes-Benz had aquired as a luxury car maker around the world, and ensuring that right until today, half a century later, the popularity of these cars remains unbroken.
