Market commentary

This 190SL probably does not suffer from having only 105hp, but it has been built to make a visual statement, not to any larger purpose and is worth no more than the price it brought here today. It will be much more fun to drive than a standard 190SL on sunny days, however, being both lighter and more powerful. Just dont take it out when theres risk of rain.
