So you cannot conclude that if the car has twin headlamp pods, it's a 300SEL, let alone a 6.3 !!!! Because this is the only picture it;s difficult to tell: it looks as if the bottom bumper has a rubber strip, which would mean this is an early 280SE.... If there is no rubber strip on the bumper, it would be either a 220SE or a 250SE. Wether it is a long version, or wether it's a 6.3, cannot be deducted from this picture.
