Seems it didn't receive much attention until the doors opened up! I like the look of it....

Great shots, I like the dashboard shot of the red gullwing, nice! :biggrin

The older Green Mercedes towards the end of the group is a 220se from 1959/1960. They are great cars. I have one in White.
I know some folks are not too enamored with the new Gullwing, however I like it, as well as the SL Black photographed.

Does anyone here know what driver/passenger "escape plan" is in play for the gullwing in the event of a rollover?

If remember correctly, the "plan" for a DeLorean was to kick out the windshield (it was evidently designed to dislodge easily).

Surely you have a few clients who could be of assistance in that endeavor, no? :rofl :cheers

No worries, very unlikely to happen if you decide to purchase one. :lol

Found this on the web in a few places....

The car looks much better in your pics than ones I had seen previously. Cool car. :thumbsup

I love the exploding door hinges concept. :banana I can't wait till that video inevitably shows up on YouTube. :lol

Thanks for posting the photos. :cheers

I was just pointing out what a safe driver EP is. How thankless can a guy be?
