Wayne Newtons 107

[CABRIO STEVE]

Just after reading the depressing news that Ferrari announced the appointment of a microchip executive as their new CEO, I came across this auction notification which made me laugh.
Can you imagine the reaction of Uhlenhaut and Waxenberger upon seeing this "coach built" 107?

That is a next level coke spoon.

Being the Owner of a 500SL 107 I gotta say that’s UGLY. I know Wayne wanted something different but they destroyed the beautiful lines of the 107 and on a no nothing 380SL w/ no HP.

He should have spent his $$$ on an AMG 107. It might have even been cheaper in the long run.

Being celebrity owned w/ no reserve I wonder how it will go at BJ.

Ol' Fig messed that one up big time...
