I think I'd still prefer a W126.


This one happens to be the same color as our 300SD, and is also the first 2nd generation W126 I've seen in a color used mostly in 1st generation W126s. It's rare on most 1st gen W126s I've seen for that matter too.

No. It's still a tinkertoy. I'd rather have a W123 or a W126

Pretty cool. I liked the point at the end. The cars both faired better than a human inside either of them would have.

I can't imagine the Smart car would have done very well had it been hit in the side.
