Sometimes I have time to kill and snap shots of the cars. This one I just took, nothing special, but I like showing off the cars every once and a while, kind of an evolution of design photo. Anyone have any other good/interesting photos of their cars?

I like taking pics of my cars but I have tried several times to "attach" them with no luck

They are Euros. The guy I bought it from imported it himself - he had all the paperwork etc. He imported it into AZ so not much was changed on it as they have very lax rules. It got a cat convertor and that was about it. The car is a real Autobahn number. It has hardly any "luxury" equipment and the 2.8 motor has about 30 more horse than the 380SL's V-8. Without the heavy bumpers, top motors, option equip, etc, it is light and fast. Sometimes I regret not finding one like it with manyal tranny, but as you get older you want less and less to work the stick, The 4spd auto, however, when manualy shifted is truly impressive. If you shift it into "S" it will lock down the tranny to keep it from starting out in 2nd and lock out the top gear, gving you killer in-town street performance. I can zoom around those Houston traffic lights like you wouldn't believe, and everytime oil goes up another dollar, I want another $500 for it. I think the 280SLs are a great long term investment - I'd buy another one if I found the right one. There was one on Ebay last week with only 15.000 miles on it. He had a ridiculous reserve on it, so I never went back to it, then some guy on the SL forum says he dropped his reserve and sold it for $9,000! I could have kicked myself!

send me a pm and I'll help who out with it
