All hail the Merc!

My SLK250D never ceases to amaze me. This is 61.4mpg average on the motorway, speed was...

Yeah, right. I’ll leave you and the many others you mention, to tell the owners of say, a Shelby Cobra, TR6, Testarossa, TVR, Lotus Elan, etc, just how insignificant the engine is in their classic...
