W124 is an iconic model that represents very well Mercedes in its evolution from classic Mercedes of 60s and 70s to the modern and actual system and process that Mercedes uses to realize cars.

They introduced CAD in developing design, in developing chassis and engineered systems (suspensions, engines, gearbox, frames, and subframes) they developed safety for driver and occupants and even for the pedestrians in case of impact, they developed one of the best aerodynamic for the class of car, they introduced microprocessor in car's managing.

They developed this project in about 7 years before introducing the car to the folks. This car is not only one of the nicest of ever made by Mercedes (thanks Bruno Sacco for this design) but is even the exposition of the Mercedes process of developing and realize cars in the 80s.

Today, unfortunately, Mercedes not reserve this brand attention to all of its production.
