Scanned this from my MB Enthusiast magazines. Great classic car and IMO one of the best-looking SL's ever. The article is in English too.

Some of the newer ones will be quite appealing in the future. It just takes time. The CLS or current SLK will be classics for sure, I feel.

However, back in the old days, MB could sell every car they made because there was no competition, literally. Nowadays, you have a lot of serious competition that offers superior cars for less money or with better selling points.
