A little history on the 190SL Roadster according to Sports Car Market Magazine:
"The 190SL was born from the rich tradition of excellence and distinction so firmly adhered to by Mercedes-Benz. After the
success of the powerful 300SL series. Mercedes executives and designers decided it would be advantageous to introduce a
smaller. lower-priced example. The 300SL's “little brother” made an impact on the motoring world. selling over 25. 00 units
by the final days of its eight-year production run.
The 190SL gained quite a following—it is rumored that it was the favorite car of the alluring Grace Kelly. In effect. the 190SL
was far more practical than its more severe alternative. and was better designed to suit the everyday driver and enthusiast. It
was as impressive to the eye as the 300 series and still offered adequate performance. " Today 300SL's sell for well over $1. 00. 00.
