just wow (72 MB 600 f/s on eBay)
scrolling through ebay I find this
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-...ayphotohosting
In my opinion this is the best luxury sedan ever made and the m100 engine(which this has is superb) 6.3 v8 286hp (under rated) 4xx lbs of torque (under rated as well) made this car a beast

Please use a thread title clearer than "just wow" in future. Thank you.

Given all the 'restoration work' you'd better have about the same amount of $ again for maintenance...

Amazing restoration of that car!! Very pricey... front-axle rebuild $18,000, exhaust system $7,000, etc. However, one thing I do not get. The whole rebuild in 2006 cost a total of $90,000. And don't get me wrong, I love them, but why on earth would you put Yokohama tires on a vintage 1970's Mercedes???
