Just a dreamer

Hi!

I've been lurking around the forums for about six months now, figured I should actually build an account at this point. Right now, I'm just a dreamer, but if the stars align right, I'll be in the market for my first Benz this coming spring. I've always been fascinated with the AMG line, but affording anything new is far out of budget. I have been looking at the later '55 M113k models, as well as the earlier '63s with the M156 motor. I have to say that I'm still looking at options for them, and would love some feedback from actual owners. I love the SL body style, and the retractable hard top, but I have kids and would like to take more than just one passenger along. So that goes to my second option, and that's the CL body. I would love to hear from actual owners on their opinion for these, and help me make the most-educated purchase that I can this spring!
