I heard the engine was said to produce 170hp but many were tested to a little less than 140hp. But what made the car speedy was its "slipperyness", very aerodynamic.

Yes, and torque too I'd imagine. We once had a Fiat 130 with its 3.2 V6 that only had 165bhp but it was a delight to drive with a deliciously smooth and progressive power delivery.

With modern fuel they run too lean and hot you need to give it a carb or EFI re-Adjustement and than they will crank out around 180HP

Maybe it was a 'smog' version for north America? 170hp for a 2.7L was pretty much normal for Euro cars of tgat era. A BMW 2800CS e3 from the late 1960's had exactly that, 170hp. Mercedes 280se very similar.

Never mind the Autobahn. I drove this car from NY city to Buffalo in 1980 on back roads all the way. I cruised at around 100mph over bumpy, rough and sometimes curvy roads. The SM just ate up and spit out the road making for for the most enjoyable ride imaginable. Absolutely fantastic space machine!

@2512MaTHias5 ай бұрын
Yes, but only with a freshly tightened steering mechanism. The get loose every 5000 km, and then you can turn the steering wheel 8 cm left-right- left doing NOTHING to the wheels. I had a w123 280E and know what I’m talking about. Really wouldn’t want to drive it this way 200 km/h on the autobahn. The DIRAVI steering of the SM constantly presses 172 bars (2500 psi) from both sides into the steering resulting in ZERO play, giving the ultra exact steering feeling and security.
