The Sportwagen was yet another rare example of exclusive design by MB through its uniquely drawn body and small-racing like cockpit.
The soft-top cabrio had an elongated nose that stretched to almost 2/3 of the car’s length and an incredibly short rear. Particularities included stretched front fenders and signature door sills that had been reduced to an oval-slate. Rear fenders were also widened while doors saw a significant size decrease. An interesting feature was the roof-folding system with its arms having stretched along the body to nearly half of the rear wheels in open top form.
