In it's day the SL600 enjoyed supercar status with just under 400HP. Today not quite so. But the M120 in the 560SL has what I call just the right amount of power without getting stupid. It's smooth as glass, extremely well behaved and it looks really good. Todays plastic covered engines just don't do it for me.
