Italeri 1/24 Mercedes Benz 540k Model Kit

The Mercedes-Benz 540K was the pinnacle of prewar automotive luxury, its supercharged 5.4-liter straight-eight producing 180 HP when the Kompressor was engaged. Built from 1936 to 1940, fewer than 400 were produced, each bodied by master coachbuilders in styles ranging from elegant cabriolets to the stunning Autobahn Kurier streamliner. The 540K combined effortless power with craftsmanship that has never been equaled, and pristine examples have sold for over $10 million at auction. This 1/24 Italeri kit captures the sweeping fenders, chrome-laden elegance, and supercharged grandeur of prewar motoring's finest hour.
