Looking For Classic Weekend Ride
So i have been toying with the idea of getting a weekend car, something easier to drive around the city than my Ram 1500. I have always grown up with Mercedes and love the classics. My neighbor growing up had a 1986 560 sl in mint condition, i always loved it as a kid and new i wanted one some day. But recently i have fallen in love with the 1969 280se.
Here is my question which one should i buy?? I love the 560 sl cus it was my childhood dream car, but i like the practicality of the 280se with the backseat. Your feedback and opinions are apperciatedTo be a successful gambler you have to have a complete disregard for money

I am a HUGE Mercedes fan, and in the end I would have to go with the SL, mainly because SL's are amazing when it comes to weekend drives

wow is that a tough decision. i like the 80s benzes, as you can see from my sig, and my aunt had one of those and loved it, so i recommend the 560

SL for sure!
My family has an 86 560 SL, something like 17k miles on it... I'll post pics when I'm home next week.
