KW Suspensions has rolled out something exciting for fans of the legendary Mercedes-Benz W124 (later known as the E-Class): the V3 Classic suspension kit.

This kit is a game-changer, featuring a robust stainless steel construction that seamlessly swaps out your original components without any need for tricky modifications. What's really cool about this coilover suspension kit is its adaptability.

You get the freedom to fine-tune compression and rebound damping independently, tweak spring preload, and even set your preferred ride height. It's compatible with Mercedes W124 sedans packing four, five, or six-cylinder engines.

There's also a special version for the V8-powered Mercedes 500 E. The degree of lowering varies depending on your engine and model, ensuring you get that perfect custom look.

The standout feature here is the KW V3 Classic's multi-valve damper design, which lets you dial in precise adjustments for low-speed compression and rebound damping. That means you can fine-tune your ride to match your driving preferences, significantly impacting how your car handles and how comfortable the ride is.

Rebound damping plays a crucial role in keeping your tires glued to the road, while compression damping affects body roll and how responsive your steering feels.

One more thing that makes the KW V3 Classic Suspension Kit shine is its quick response thanks to pre-configured high-speed valves. These valves work wonders at smoothing out rough roads, making your driving experience more comfortable, and improving handling.

KW Automotive plans to release more V3 Classic suspension kits. So, whether you have a convertible, coupe, wagon, V8 beast, or even an AMG variant within the Mercedes W124 range, you can look forward to upgrading your ride soon. Exciting times for Mercedes aficionados, wouldn't you say? As for the price tag, it's still under wraps for now.
