The Mercedes W 113 SL model series hit the market in 1963. Due to the design if its removable hard top, the roadster quickly earned the moniker “Pagoda.” Today, more than 50 years later, the German two-seater is one of the most popular vintage cars on the market. The global fan community is huge, and models in top condition sometimes sell for twenty times what the car cost new originally.
