I thought that myself, but I think he'd be in the convertible version of the 300SL.

Close, but I think this is what you were going for...

Interesting...my friend Stan, now pushing 80 and recovering from recent surgery could be considered an "interesting" man. He kind of fits the profile depicted in those alcohol ads.
For instance, how many here were in the Guinness book? Stan was, for "circumnavigation, go kart". His entry later dropped because nobody was foolish enough to try to break his record. He was a live-aboard yachtie for quite some time...bought the boat in England, sailed to the Med...lived there in various harbors before crossing the Atlantic into the Caribbean. Sold the boat in, Florida...now living in Germany with his wife... A true "grasshopper" life. Stan isn't wealthy...but he sure has a lot of memories to look back on. I owe him for allowing me to live vicariously through his adventures...and for the time I spent on his boat, both in the Med and the "spanish lake", the Caribbean.

Too big to fail

He said "World's Most Interesting Man" not "3rd-string Russian mobster"

He has no need for a car or any other form of conveyance.
One minute he is not there then at the absolute optimal time he is, simply there.

Thats correct, He used to live on his boat in Marina Del Rey when I worked there. He said the biggest bummer about being the "most interesting man in the world" was that because of his contract, he couldn't drink any other beer when out in public....

Sammy and I agree about .006% of the time, but post 36 is the winner. Cool, classic, and fast.

He would have a collection, of course:
D-type Jag Ford GT40P, sn 1075 Bugatti Royale (for him and his women) or perhaps a 1934 Hispano-Suiza H6B Million-Guiet Dual-Cowl Phæton some kind of Ferrari spider with a racing pedigree Porsche 917 adapted to be a street car. and whatever he borrows from his good friend Jay (i.e. from Jay's Garage) that week! |

I may be wrong, but I think he is driving a successful marketing campaign.
