I had my '82 240D for two years - said I'd never sell it. Then I was tempted by a turbocharger and bought 2 300SDs. Great cars. I'd love to drive them forever. But, I know that I'll get bored. Maybe a second car would help me stay happy with my commuter. There's a '73 280C for sale for $2000 that I think would be fun...
