I liked the '57 300 Cabriolet (the black one with red interior), went for about 1/4 million as I recall. It was right before the red Gullwing, which I don't really remember seeing a red gullwing before, always (usually) silver or the occasional black one. The thing that struck me was when they said the 300 Cabriolet was more expensive than the Gullwing back in the day. WOW! Sure was a cool car. They said they (these cabriolets) usually go back to Germany where they are very popular, only about 50 of them were made back in '57, and in the US they were more expensive than a house, which I guess you still see cars today more expensive than houses (depending on your taste in houses, naturally).
