Cars you DID NOT BUY.

[Lynn]

I know we have hashed through a few of these before, but would like to hear some stories of cars you went to look at, didn't buy and now regret for whatever reason. I know there are hundreds. Can't be a car you just heard about, or saw for sale in a magazine. Must be one you actually went to see, and hopefully drove, if it was drivable.

I just saw this on ebay: burned out 190SL

I am shocked that a burned out example is over $10k and reserve is still not met. Can't be much usable there.

ANYWAY.... reminded me of the 1960 190SL I went to look at in about 1973. It was a very nice driver. Came with a clapped out, but running parts car. Could have bought the pair for $1,200, but passed. I thought (and still do) it was just too underpowered.
