What is the car in the second photo - the blue and white roadster. It looks like it might be on a VW chassis?

Re: [MBZ] Benz pR0n
I find it quite entertaining. So much automotive porn to slobber over. It will be quite the ride for the guy who gets his company to lease it for him. Then a guy with aspirations will empty his bank account to drive it for a number of years while the expensive systems go into a cascade failure. He will unload it to a Toyota dealer to purchase the new Camry with all the same bells, but working, for a quarter of the price he paid. Off it goes to the auction yard and onto a curb-stoner lot on low cost auto row, where a low end asperational driver picks it up to look like a pimp. Since nobody will know that most of the systems have gone into failure mode, it looks like he is a full on gangsta' and he can put 23" wheels on it with day-glo spinners and have a booming stereo set up resonances in the glass while it rattles the nuts off the engine mounts. Since the new owner has no cash, he can ignore any upkeep and ride it into the ground, destroying the engine and trans, as well as a nything else, with the leather rotting away under his butt, and mold and fungus sprouting in the carpets and trunk, while the tin worm consumes the body. At this point, I will scavenge the last functional bits when I visit it at the PnP. And onto CL they will go, so that some guy who loves the old cars can keep his classic W222 in original condition. While his wife and kids think he is a crazy old man for wanting a car you actually have to drive yourself. clay On Sep 25, 2013, at 7:14 PM, Chris James wrote: > > Well, I think it looks very impressive on the road (at least in black). > And certainly it isn't wanting for technological features.

Re: [MBZ] Benz pR0n
Well, I think it looks very impressive on the road (at least in black). And certainly it isn't wanting for technological features. I imagine though, it's quick start guide is bigger the most owners manuals! I love the interior mood lighting with the black interior as shown in the vid! Very cool looking! And with the hot stone massage seats & cabin scents, who needs a spa visit? Just hop in your new S! But don't get too relaxed, you still have to drive it, LOL!
