In honor of the SL63 AMG reviews on the FP, what else would Oppo do with $160-large instead of a new SL?
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Three cars: One has to be a roadster, one has to be a Benz, and one has to be new (or at least CPO/warranty). Feel free to leave a little extra cake in the bank for maintenance/repairs.

•R129 SL600 Sport project car (think equal length exhaust)
•R129 SL500 Koenig Special
•ND Miata Coupe as a DD/Backup car
Rest of the money for parts and fabrication. Maybe even a unique tow vehicle/ramp truck.

EDIT: I’m dumb and didn’t read the MBZ requirement
This isn’t perfect but it’s the best I can think of at the moment.

TBH, there hasn’t been a single Mercedes ever made that I’ve been excited about.
Maybe a new AMG GTS if I could get it custom painted in this color, Brodger Fire Brown. Really I just want a modern brown 928, and the AMG GTS is the closest thing.

Rubicon isn’t passing the roadster test. ‘Off-roadster’ maybe, but the judges won’t allow it under the current rules. You’re going to have to take a chainsaw to the E350 roof and rip out the back seats.

What do you consider a roadster?

To be honest, if I rolled up with $160k, I’d save room for a bike or two as well.

A two-seater convertible sports car. Or at least something ‘sporting’.

You can probably find an S4 in Nougat brown, or Chocalate brown....but likely an automatic like this one. Would be interesting to know if there were any brown GTS’s.
I still like the shark nose better.

Have you ever seen a W113 in the flesh? They’re beautiful.
