re: #367 William Barnett-Lewis

Beautiful story about the car.

Saw a car that would tempt me if I had the money - Mercedes 380SL, beautiful condition, hard and rag tops in good shape, “only” 21k. Time to buy a lotto ticket ;)

The last time I was in Orlando FL, I drove past a used Mercedes dealer. I stopped to take a look because it seemed so odd that these cars had the prices painted on the windshields, but where I was used to seeing 750 or 1100, these prices were 48000 and 61000! I wondered how many people would drive up to a used car dealer and spend 40 or 50 k.
