Did a wealthy relative just pass away? I'm sorry for your loss, but did they leave you with a few million dollars burning a hole in your pocket? Sure you could pay down some debt, or you could invest it. And there is no greater investment than a 1955 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing.

This is an original California car, copies of service records and California registrations going back 50 years. Car was recently restored by an award winning in house restoration shop of a very large collector. Restoration is to the highest level, car repainted in its original color Light Green Metallic ( #274) using correct Glasurit paint. Interior redone in correct red leather, stunning matching luggage. Car has original pristine floors and belly pans. Car comes with service records, old California registration copies, and original owners manual.

So...do you drop your 2 million on one of those newfangled hybrid hyper-cars only to be constantly frustrated by local speed limits? Or do you spend your money wisely and cruise with class and style?
