OMG, who would do such a thing!

Like on houses, they should list some cars, meaning you can't change anything on them eg paint jobs!

extremely sad picture

Perhaps some nouveau rich guy who didn't think owning a Gullwing got him enough attention.

Maybe there is a history to this color scheme that we just don't know about.

the photo is taken in Isreal and the owner of the car probably painted the car in the same colours as the Israel flag. Blue and white.

I saw a Gullwing 300SL today cruising around in W. L.A., it was insane to see such a beautiful car on such a beautiful day like this, lovely! The exhuast sounded really nice as well. I kinda wish that MB had stuck to the basic design philosiphy of the original SL for all future SL's w/ the lovely curves and perhaps keeping a fixed hard top model in the range. How many of you would be in favor of such an idea?

why did i, instead of start crying, started laughing at the look of this poor classic?

Deutsch, I like the curvy basic design of the Gullwing and the Roadster, but I don't favour them being incorporated into future SLs. I think these curvy shapes can make the cars look very dated in a hurry. I would like the future SLs to look more like the W107 and R107.

What do you think of the new Jaguar XK? It does look a bit like the old E-Type or XKE. Is this the direction you want the SL to go? Personally, I think the new Jag XK does resemble the XKE and has a similar old-style body shape, but I also feel the new car's exterior has been overdesigned.
