Mercedes-Benz's Gullwings

The 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing is one of the prettiest cars ever built, and while some think the new 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is better, some think it is a poor representation of the classic Benz racecar design from the '50s.

Here are a few, but take a peek at them all here.
