Mercedes Ad circa 1985

80s teen with Mercedes

Check out this totally awesome magazine ad for a Mercedes 380 SL Convertible from 1985.

Oh wait, my bad. That’s actually me right before I went to prom. Props to my Uncle Bob for funding my wheels that weekend which was very cool.

I really liked that car. I wonder how much one would cost today?

And 5 minutes later, the answer is…. anywhere from $4000 to $29.000.

I’m thinking the gas mileage is probably not too great but how cool would I look driving around in that thing?  Now I just need to go buy a mullet wig.

    I think you should make a guest appearance on Good Day on Halloween in that get-up.
