The front of the car features a dual vertical light with the traditional Mercedes upright grill is instantly recognizable.

The rear-view mirror holds a pair of fuzzy dice reportedly from 1969. Power windows are also in functioning condition. Behind the massive but elegant steering wheel sits the temperature, fuel gauge and oil in one cluster, whilst the other cluster features the speedometer and a middle smaller one housing the analog clock. The center dash features the 280S logo along with the defrost control and the air conditioner controls. The glove compartment still bears the Mercedes-Benz roadside assistance sticker.
The 280S is not only about the looks, but it was also available with an in-line six or V8 engine. This 280S, is powered by the 2.8L I6 which produced 138 hp of power with a top speed of 115 mph whilst mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission which powers the rear wheels. The engine is fed by dual carburetors. Ensuring a smooth ride are double wishbones, coil springs and a torsion bar stabilizer at the front. A unique feature of the 280S during its time is the hydro-pneumatic compensation spring located above the rear axle, which automatically adjusted the cars level based on the weight and speed.
