Hm.... I think BC needs a NEW old SL...

Actually thats why I posted this. BC has been looking for an old Gullwing but he probably doesnt want one this clean since he will mod the hell out of it.

Wow, nice. Digging the yellow RS 2.7.

Can't believe the RS will fetch that much... My grandfather had one back when he was young but sold it because he needed quick cash for a down payment on a home... If only he knew...
