280SLC vs 315

Lorelei next to a car of the same age -- a BMW 315. 4 stroke 1.6 engine, so not really a fair comparison, but still... Thanks to parallax, Lorelei looks shorter in the second shot, but is probably about a foot or so longer.

Oh, and the 315 was not in the best of shape, with a bit of surface rust and all.

But I bet it's a fun car to drive and a bit more nippy at low speeds.
