    "It had to be a car from January 1993 to August 1993, because after that they changed the name from 600SL to SL600, and I preferred the script of the old lettering, which wasn't italic, but underlined."

And if you're suited up and you look like a million bucks and you look like a success, you'll be the guy that gets tapped to sit with the chairman. And if you're wearing a pullover sweater and no necktie, you're not going to be sitting with the chairman. You'll be sitting with some other journalists who are dressed just like you are." David E.

    why would you not want that slice of automotive awesomeness?

    I even like the discrete styling, just 2 exhausts and no massive wheelarches or anything

    That engine would snap the dogleg. It would make it into a normal gearbox.

    Very nice indeed. Those old SL-s have always been my favorites.

    Still, if I had to choose between the SL73 and a Vantage V600...I'd go for the Vantage.
