If it was a woman, it would be Jackie Kennedy, in a white sleeveless sheath by Oleg Cassini, about 1962 when she was at the top of her game

Jim, I just finished reading your description of the W123. I am going to have to take a cold shower!
PS I agree with your description. Except mine would have to be Havana Brown (of course) and there would have to be a 230SL, 250SL or a 280SL, in Tiffany Blue, parked right next to it. For me that would be like having Sophia Loren and Audrey Hepburn waiting for me in my driveway. OK, back to the cold shower.
