lol

But I thought I had heard those were actually reasonably reliable, if expensive to service.

I just see older SL starting to go for silly money. I really want a Pagoda SL, but even as a project car that is crazy expensive now.

But yes, I do love the 2.3 16V. I almost got one back when I got the 2.6 but it was just outside my budget. I would have ended up beating up on it and putting a million miles, but I've wanted one of those for a while.
