In the Spring of 1963, Mercedes-Benz debuted an all-new roadster to replace the 190SL and 300SL- The 230SL. Internally designated W113, the 230SL 'Pagoda' was a stunning Paul Bracq designed two-seat Cabriolet that followed Mercedes' new design language, featuring crisp lines and upright headlights. The 230SL was fitted with a prominent three-pointed star in its grill as a reference to the already iconic 300SL. To save on weight, the hood, door skins, trunk lid, and tonneau cover are all composed of aluminum, affixed to a rigid steel monocoque. The car's distinctive concave-shaped removable hard top quickly earned it the nickname 'Pagoda.' Although controversial at its introduction, these SLs are now considered a masterpiece of design.
