Ah, the 300 SL. What a vision of class, style and performance. The cars a classic, but it existed well before Mercedes and their performance arm ties the not. Honestly that would’ve put it squarely in AMG’s wheelhouse. The SLS AMG is the modern interpretation, but it’ll never really carry the cachet of the original. If only their paths had crossed existed a few years earlier… What would the 300 SL look like?

Well, it turns out that history is stranger than fantasy in this case.
