Modern day dream car - Porsche Targa 4S

I was 13 in 1990, upon its introduction, the R129 Mercedes-Benz 500SL became my dream car. In January of this year, I acquired a 2000 SL500. It’s an amazing feeling being able to finally own a car that at one time seemed so far out of reach (thank you depreciation!)!

Owns two of them.

Their current design language doesn’t thrill me. Still love the older ones though.

I’m really hoping that BMW, and Mercedes-Benz turn around their design language, I miss the creases in the body lines. I’m also hoping we go back to actual gauges and buttons. The tactile feel that the German big 3 was part of what contributed to their ‘feel’.
