With a top speed of 200 km/ h, as stated in the original brochure, this Pagoda stood as an elegant yet powerful counterpart to the Jaguar E-Type, Ferrari Daytona, and Corvette C3.
The Legendary W113 Series
The W113 series, produced between 1963 and 1971, included the 230 (1963-1967), the 250 (1967), and the 280 (1968-1971). Only 48, 912 W113 models were built. The Pagoda owes its nickname to the distinctive shape of its hardtop, reminiscent of a graceful Chinese pagoda roof.
