The one with stultifying and jawdropping amounts of epic oldness.
Demon-Xanth knows how to operate a street.

I'd have a nicely restored, stock version of the classic Chrysler.

I would take the Merc and drive it like I stole it.

This could perhaps be the only time I'd choose new before old. I don't even need to watch the video... I LOVE old wagons, but in this case? The Mercedes wins, that is if we're talking about a car I'd have to use every day.

The green one.
I can add amenities like A/C and a stereo. You cannot add the epic patina and class to the Merc.

And it's the CHEAPER of the two as well.

The one that looks like it was specifically designed to injure pedestrians while I'm comfortably lounged across the front seat at some ungodly speed.

The Desoto/Chrysler followed by getting the body painted, redoing all of the chrome, and adding some nice chrome wheels.

Yeah, the wheels are the only thing I'd change.
And I don't mind patina, but this one has PEELING PAINT. That's not patina. Might change that too.

If it was a nice project car at half the price (even less, probably) I would take the Chrysler... but $140K for an old van in not-that-great condition? No thanks.
The AMG wins in raw performance, handling, price (it's incredible I'm writing this), sleeperness, comfort, it's new and has new death-preventing technology if something goes wrong. It loses in the looks and "cools" v.s. the Icon
Again if I bought an old estate, put some new internals in it, maybe a nice paint job and it all costed me $50K and years of free time I would love it, but all that money to buy something that meant a lot... to someone else? Nope.

Have to go with the tri-star. Older does not always mean better, especially if you have to spend an arm and a leg to restore it.
