..anyone ever owned one of these turds? I always thought they looked a bit odd, maybe coming into their own now though.. less likely to have been ragged than the equivalent Porsche or BMW too I suppose :D

They were in the shadow of the SL then replaced by the SEC, so they were often overlooked. I have not driven one but apparently they were better the SL. Cool car and values are going up.

Pacerpete will know about these.

IIRC, art critic Brian Sewell used to own one, before buying Nigel Mansell's 560SEC! 8O

Mmmmm. Unsure on these. The proportions never looked right to me, like it was gonna snap in the middle.

Would have an SL over one in a flash or an SEC in fact.
