Looks like a Mercedes 28/95 of about 1922, but who the coachbuilder was, I can't guess.
Not a Mercedes
Looks like a Benz 27/70 with a special Coupé de Ville body. Maybe Kühlstein/Berlin was the coachbuilder..
Neither Mercedes nor Benz. However, a Mercedes engine is under the hood / bonnet. The body was not by Kühlstein/Berlin.
Then it might be a saxonian "Elite S18 18/70 PS or a 18/96 PS Coupé de Ville", built in Brand-Erbisdorf from 1923-26 when they´ve changed to flat cooling masks again.
Not one of those...
Hmmm, I was quite sure as Elite used engines that based on Mercedes design.
This will get hard.
Most ca.1919 luxury cars from Germany, Austria, and Czechoslovakia featured those "Spitzkühler" type of edgy cooling masks.
So let´s begin from the start:
Is it german?
Yes!
Is it a Steiger?
It is not.
Don't just give up now, with the win so near!
Hi, this is a Joswin 25\75hp Town Car 1922 but the same model, in the Henry Ford Museum is called Sedance de Ville from 1920...
Did the subliminal clue help? ;)
QuoteDon't just give up now, with the win so near!
I had it saved as a 1925 Joswin 24 75 PS Town Car, as well.
Now it does!

You are one of the the few, if not the only one, who has gained on him.
Keeping an eye on you all, I am.
If I do understand you correctly (am not quite sure about it..) I can assure you that Mr. P-Jee is out of competition on that contest. My archive of books is hardly the tenth of his — as well is my knowledge. ;)

A constructive detail of the 1923 Joswin cars:
If any of you have a nice, detailed, lengthy feature article on the Joswin, please share it with me via PM or email. Thank you
I wish I had more than this...
thanks for sharing these
And some from me (you probably know):

An ad from 1922
The only Joswin ad I have in my (physical) collection is this one from a 1925 German Motor magazine:
I'm not sure, but this might be another Joswin:
