That 560 should last forever down in mild climate San Francisco

Depends how close to the water it is. The salt spray hanging in the air deteriorates cars very quickly down there.

I know those newfangled AMG mercs are faster and crap....but they have no presence when compared to this.

Not close. The new owner also has an early LS 400 as well as a few other cars. He keeps them garaged and he's far enough from the water for there to be no risk of salt spray.

That's good. San Fran is bad, almost like a salt fog.
