Wasn't too long ago I had a poor internet connection and running Linux on older hardware, meant that all those java configurators and fancy effects were a real pain. Now that my computer stuff is up to snuff, my budget says no more new cars.

Ras815 It's insane they would go through all of that added expense and time to ship to Italy and back, all for noticeably inferior workmanship on their flagship product. A harbinger of GM's increasingly questionable decision-making, perhaps?
ChristianWimmer US-spec 380SLs were especially asthmatic thanks to the emissions regulations. In Europe these were considered quite “quick” and powerful. They are slow cars by todays standards but excellent cruisers so this 380SL is perfect for someone who just wants a solid, open-top cruiser and not a weekend drag racer.IIRC the 560SL had a torque advantage over the European 500SL, but the 500SL was ultimately the quicker car.I own an ‘89 500SL R129 and despite the 326-horsepower torquey V8, it’s 0-100 km/h “performance” is held back by the 4-speed automatic and 2-ton weight. Even in their day these cars were not intended for drag racing or 0-100 km/h bragging times. They are cruisers meant to be enjoyed in a responsible manner. Plus, driving faster than 120-130 km/h with the top down or the soft top closed results in high wind noises for the former and a loud fluttering cloth top for the latter. As a result I drive a maximum of 110 km/h on the Autobahn with the top down or 120-130 km/h with the top up.
Tassos more lipstick on the pitiful pig...
Tassos While Summer officially starts w the Solstice around June 21-22, my summer has started on Monday May 6, when I started my ocean swimming season, a record early for me. Fortunately I think the water is warmer than in previous years (on Monday May 14, 2007, when I returned to my summer palace from a week's stay in Warsaw (the VIP treatment etc) I could not stand it, but did swim the next day May 15.
Tassos I will wait for the more understated, if not eliminated, fins of the 60s and 70s. Form Follows Function unless there is really good reason, and I fail to see anything more than a passing fad here. Good Riddance, glad current Caddys are not as juvenile in their excellent styling (that Art and Science or Whatever theme has already lasted a quarter century and still looks better than Bangle-d BMWs.
