wow, that is a tough choice, I would honestly have to see and drive the two cars before making a decision, but I'd lean toward the renntech bcs its power and performance is ridiculous and its waaay more unique.

Buy a used - higher mileage R230 SL500 - and put that motor in the R129 - and put the 7.4 V12 Monster in the R230!! A simpler solution would be a Renntech SL600 or an SL65...?
