At this year's Pebble Beach weekend, Mercedes-Benz will pay homage to their legendary SL Roadster by displaying a trio of vintage cars. Next to a brand-new 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 63 AMG, visitors will be able to gaze at three 1952 W194 300SL cars: chassis no. 2, no. 7 and no. 11.

Also on display at the Mercedes-Benz Star Lounge will be the Concept Style Coupé, the brand's future vision of a four-door coupe. It's reportedly powered by a turbo four-cylinder gas engine, which sends its 211 hp through all four wheels via its 4MATIC drivetrain.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to purchase as few vintage cars, as the Mercedes-Benz Classic Center will be offering a 1936 540K Cabriolet B, two 1955 300SL Coupes, a 1963 190SL, a 1968 280SL and a 1969 280SL.
