The Colosimo Double Wing safe is covered in sporty red leather and the front of the safe does look somewhat like the dashboard of the 300SL.  The safe features a Wempe Zeitmeister clock in the middle, which is designed to look like the one on the 300SL’s dashboard, and below it are retro-toggle switches.
