1965 Mercedes 230SL Bought this about 25 years ago in Morro Bay, CA when I was dating a girl from Pismo Beach. Been wanting one of these ever since I was a teenager and just happened to stumble upon this one while spending the day in Morro Bay. Surprisingly, I'm just the second owner of this classic. Its been restored to "driver" status...can't see the point in doing a concourse-quality restoration and never get to actually enjoy the car (well, at least that's just me, for what its worth). Runs like a charm and tons of fun just cruising around, top down of course. But it may be time to let it go and let someone else get some enjoyment from a great little roadster. My fantasy car has always been the 300SL Gullwing, but those are so far out of reach for me money-wise I'd need Lotto money. But the 230SL was a nice substitute.
