Note the federalized bumpers -- so this is ad post 1973. Those bumpers made the car that much more safe, but really worked against the clean lines of the original design. Is the passenger a man or a woman -- I cannot tell!
The ad touts the engineering design of the V-8. I don't believe that the engine is special. !981 and 81 SLs had single chain timing chains, and proved to be a disaster. The engine is not particularly powerful nor economical. Overall durable, perhaps. We'll find out, as mine has 141K on it!
