Must have been sweet, how do you think it compares to today's SLS?

Good article. Road & Track had a good article by former racer Sam Posey about the 300SL that he has owned since he was 14. Quite a story. At one point he got some pointers from John Fitch, the only American to ever drive for the MB factory team.
