Just got this from a photographer I hired for a photo shoot of our car. I am very pleased!

Italian car like mine but a whole lot nicer looking than what I've been driving.

Gosh, what a beautiful car!
I couldn't help but notice that tree - is it clad in chrome?

Handsomely crafted from stainless flue pipes. Wait until it blooms and you see the leaves.

Beautiful pictures, Thanks for posting!

The photos are lovely and the car deserves it! But tell me please... can you see the right side mirror when you're in the driver's seat?

RAY · « **Reply #8 on:** May 05, 2019, 10:28:50 »

So much better without the head rests, IMO. Sleek, clean lines.

Thanks for the compliments. The passenger side mirror I consider symbolic or even ornamental. I can see it perfectly well, and I adjust it almost every time I drive the car, but no matter what position it is in, there is no use for what you can see through it.

Beautiful automobile. What's your exterior color code?

Color is medium gray metallic. Code is 178H. It changes significantly under different light conditions.

Was just in Bentonville last week. Visited Crystal Bridges + the square. Sorry I didn't happen upon you and your vehicle then!!

Just gorgeous and clean as a whistle!
I am curious, the interior photo shows the late 250 SL interior door hardware but the exterior mirrors seem to be of the early 250 SL type.
Am I seeing correctly?

Lovely!

I'd put on a Euro front license plate (maybe Italy?)

Cool shots! I have a 1969 Pagoda SL in Germany which I'm driving there when I go for business trips. Last year I hired a professional photographer for a photo shoot for online listings and the photos were so amazing that I decided not to sell it. Oh I miss that car so much.. Soon I will visit Germany in order to look for a new office for sale in Berlin, I'm looking forward to have a ride with it!

Herr Schulte,

Nice photo, why not show more photos from the Photoshoot? Leading us here to “offices for sale is not cool at all!!

Looking at some of the details, it seems not to be a German spec car? Is it on a German registration? What is it and how are you doing this?

alpina · « **Reply #18 on:** August 20, 2019, 16:42:43 »

Seems to be this one.
