The Mercedes-Benz 300S was one of the world’s most exclusive automobiles between 1951 and 1958, introduced at the 1951 Paris Auto Show based on the stately Mercedes-Benz 300 sedan.  The W186 300 was Mercedes-Benz’s first all-new post-war automobile design, considered, then and now, to be one of the finest engineered automobiles of its era.  While the 300 set standards for luxury and performance, the engineering and platform also gave rise to the exemplary, limited production 300S and the later 300SL racing and sports cars.  The Mercedes-Benz 300 series re-established the German automaker’s pre-war reputation as one of the world’s most prestigious manufacturers, engineering and building high-performance luxury cars, often by hand, utilizing the finest materials.  The 300S was intended more than a little to recall the great pre-war 500K and 540K sports luxury models.  The comparison is apt.  The 300S shared most of the components of the 300, but rode on a shortened 114.2-inch wheelbase to enhance handling and offered the most powerful engine available, a 3.0-liter ohc in-line six tuned to provide 150 hp and 178 ft-lb of torque with three dual-throat Solex carburetors for the early S model.  The chassis features independent suspension and power-assisted brakes on all four wheels.
