Now that is really impressive. A classic look with a modern power and safety.

yea sorry should have posted the link, i thought i did
but anyway

It is in fact a real 1961 190SL but w an SL600 chassis and engine+ transmission. Thats why the some of the body parts look distorted; to make em fit over the SL chassis and engine. Its a hybrid of the two vehicles,i think that qualifies it for not being a reoplica.

they did a retake on the original wheels, whcih alot of people didnt like but i do.

Anyway lank
