More a cruiser than the borderline supercar GT that is my SL63. But if I’m being honest, most of my driving is highway anyway.

They're not. And honestly, for highway top up, the 230 is superior, because the hardtop on the 129 is a pain unless you have a lift, and even then...and the soft top, while a good soft top, isn't as silent as an MB deserves. But top down, yeah.
Now is the time, as the values are jumping. Mine was only 7500 3 years ago,with 90k, out of LA, and didn't need much, just a fan. Probably a 12-15k car now. Its not perfect as the lower bumper needs some love, but its otherwise clean.
