In March 1977 a coupé variant of series 123 was presented at the Geneva Motor Show. Types 230 C, 280 C, and 280 CE succeeded the 114 series “Stroke Eight” coupés. Their production had run out between June and August of the previous year. As in the preceding Types, there was a close technical and stylistic relationship to the saloon. In contrast to the “Stroke Eight” coupés, which were based on the unshortened body platform of their four-door counterpart, the wheelbase of the new two-door cars had been reduced by 85 mm in comparison to the saloons. This measure made the coupé variant stylistically more independent and enabled a more homogeneous and more attractive design. Especially the tail end was now less dominant and therefore fitting in more harmoniously.

As to their mechanical components, the coupés were exactly like their four-door counterparts. Like those, they had a semi-trailing arm rear axle which had already been introduced in the preceding models. Furthermore, it showed a double-wishbone front wheel suspension with zero steering offset. The braking system, too, was taken over without change from the saloons.

The range of models first consisted of Types 230 C, 280 C, and 280 CE. The engines corresponded exactly to the equipment of the respective saloon. In contrast to the preceding model, the 123 coupé was also available with a 4-cylinder engine. Its performance of 109 hp was not of overwhelming temperament, but it provided adequate power.

The W123 magnificent indeed. The 200 was underpowered but the 230E and 280E were superb.

Great vehicle though. That and the W124 300CE “Baby Benz”. In my eyes they’re up there with the 62, 250 Ferrari GTO’s. That outta piss off the Ferrari contingent! LOL!
