The all-new Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupé is among the most attractive models in the carmaker’s lineup, but its steep price (from €125,961) in Germany) will make it unaffordable for most people. These Mercedes-Benz fans can comfort themselves with…scale model cars from the Mercedes-Benz Collection.
Available in two sizes (1:18 and 1:43) and a total of four original exterior colors, the S-Class Coupé scale models are available starting in September 2014 at the Mercedes-Benz dealerships as well as the online shop.
Created in collaboration with the renowned model car specialists iScale, the 1:43 model consists of over 50 individual parts, while the 1:18 model from Norev has 110 mounted parts.
Mercedes-Benz says the greatest attention was paid to the authenticity and craftsmanship of originality, with the interior details being represented exactly like the original model. The cabin is made of high quality printed material.
On the 1:18 model, the doors, bonnet and boot can be opened. The new S-Class Coupé model cars are mounted on a printed base and delivered in a presentation box. The 1:43 model is priced at €29.90 ($40.80), while the 1:18 version costs €79.90 ($109.40). Both prices are recommended retail prices in Germany and include 19 percent VAT.
