[MBZ] 350SDL on eBay
Seen this 350SDL while browsing eBay. The color caught my eye, don't see Teal Blue cars too often. But the vid they posted was a total turn off. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psxb9e-rCkQ OK, we get it, it hauls! Everyone knows the benefits of an Italian tuneup, but all the revving of the engine racing it around the parking lot in a for sale vid didn't impress me or befit the car, especially with the clicking/clacking lifters and/or belt tensioner it just seemed overly loud in general. That 603 certainly wasn't purring. More like $60K new 30mpg.keep dreaming! Still it's a pretty car, just not for their original $8K asking price. I wonder how much the dealer picked it up at auction for? -- Chris J.

Wonder why all the windows are down; so he can hear all the loud clattering better or to hear a rod come through to daylight or to better hear the silence after the chain breaks/brakes?
