This, ladies and gentlemen, is how you REALLY camoflauge a new car's styling.

Maybe MB is going to start producing tanks, that would actually be kinda kewl come to think of it.


You know, it'd probably get more looks like this than without the camo actually.

Cool. Looks like it came straight out of one of those Mad Max movies. They should sell it as is.

That'd be an interesting marketing strategy. "Just in case some of you wouldn't like our styling, we'll give you no styling at all!"

That camo makes it look like it's armor plated or something. Looks pretty badass to me.

It does look like what an armored car company might make, especially if they wanted people to know it was armored. Except, without the holes, of course.

Buy one, and the US'll think you're a terrorist, and so they'll kill you.

Those a fastener holes to allow panels to be quickly and easily replaced when damaged.

Looks good IMO aside from the taillights.

The taillights are odd, especially on the wagon, and what's with the eyelid things on the headlights? (middle picture)  It's doesn't look too much different from all the other MBs, though, that's why I've never had much interest in them (since I've had no first-hand experience).

I meant riding and/or driving, being in those MBs was a culture shock to me, after having a lifetime in GM, Chrysler and Ford vehicles.

And then: Kevin's catharsis.

"Oh, so THAT'S why so many people like imports so much."

Just looks like another Mercedes. Looks good, but nothing terribly noteworthy about it. And Kevin, if all the vehicle experience you've had has been with GM, Chrysler, and Ford, you REALLY need to ride around in some friends cars who have Toyotas and Honda and such, or the Mercedes and Lexus crowd, if you know some. Nothing's more amusing than a loyalist who doesn't have first-hand knowledge of the cars he thinks his is better than.
