  • owsome car me like :D

  • self-centering steering wheel, truly a technology...

  • thank you for a loving, enlightening appreciation of the SM. i enjoyed availing myself of your expertise. you make it easy for the vicarious thrill seeker to feel some of your joy

  • Comment removed

  • this is my favorite automobile. a creation so beautiful, so finely wrought as the sm transcends all measure of reliability or practicality. it is as henry moore's sculpture, eero saarinen's arch, charles eames' chair; timeless, exquisite, breathtaking. this machine is unmatched for sheer style and i suspect it always will be. thank you for this video.

  • engineering ingenuity! 5 stars

  • Very nice car. I have a 15 years old modern day XM. Much of the technology is the same. I do all maintainance work myself, and my hands are never clean. But a great car to drive when everything is working. I know the SM is a great challenge. Good luck!

  • bjofuruh - Tell me you've got the Euro headlights. In N. America I recall they were banned. What a car.

  • That's a great presentation of the SM by someone who obviously knows and understands its seductive charm and its unrivalled technological leadership 30 years ago. You were absolutely right in just buying it; I bought the new C6 for the same reasons and deplore the brainless mainstream car owners!

  • Thanks for opening my eyes to the reality of life. It's quite short. Indeed. You've inspired me to start my search for one. I've always let the little angel on my right dictate my buying decisions. However, after seeing your reasoning about not having a life of compromise. I've just realized that I'd better try to get one while they're still within my grasp. Thanx, Unclemonty

  • Why do you say that m8?

  • thanks.

    it's not so complexity,may be simpliest as we can think.

    take a look of my "always wanted car" on:

    all the best.

  • I'm not espcialy brave or rich but I have now the amazing car of the early '70, the one that I always wanted.

  • A great car, but I would imagine as a vintage car its technical complexity would make it a difficult car to maintain. Best of luck with your SM. Hope you get many years of pleasure from it.

  • The main issue is becoming thoroughly familiar with the car and its systems. Those who have worked on motion control systems (hydraulic industrial or aircraft) will understand the systems quickly.

    The familiaization required before jumping in is time well spent.
