Hey, your dreams dont have to go on the back burner. I have been following the pricing trends of the SL. For a while, they have not decreased, nor have they increased, as in the case of my 1996 SL600. That is good for us who already own them, and those who are looking to buy one. I have noticed that the early ones still hold their value well, as I have seen mint 92's and 93's go for 15,000. However, I have seen ones in Excellent condition, but they have 150,000 miles or more going for around 8,500. I think that you may be able to swing your car, you just need to get approval from the "higher power."
Hehehe, its my dads car, but my mom steals it when he or I isnt driving it. She says it makes her look and feel younger. See if you could convince your wife by telling her it will make her look good, and stylish when you drive it.
