Sangmin Lee’s collection

This is part of the collection of Sangmin Lee, a car collector in South Korea. He owns both an R129 SL600 and an R230 SL55 AMG, alongside many other cars. If you cannot choose between two cars, why not take a page from his book and have them both? There is always one thing we are short of: Money...
