[edit] 190SL
This article needs to more directly discuss each model, including the often ignored 190 SL
[edit] When did the 320SL first come out?
I asked this on the R129 page but this might be a better place to ask. It says 1994 in the article but I have seen 320 SL's for sale that claim to be as old as 1991. For example, this one http://carsireland.ie/55245 - it's not a great photo, but it definitely looks like a 320SL to me. Could it really be 1991? thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian Fenton (talk • contribs) 18:05, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- According to Kittler, Deutsche Autos seit 1990, vol. 6, p. 215, the 320 SL appeared in May, 1993; in calendar 1992, 3 cars were built, probably prototypes. Volume production began in 1993. And according to Covello, Standard Catalog of Imported Cars, the SL 320 was introduced in the USA for model year 1994, i.e. in autumn 1993. Why this Irishman is advertising a 1991 320SL, a car that apparently cannot exist, I don´t know. Maybe it`s a case of Tullamoredewitis? Or a typo? Or? --328cia (talk) 03:53, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
