I'm watching Fringe tonight on Fox. One of the characters is driving a black on black 300SD. I think it's a 300SD as I thought I quickly caught a glimpse of a turbodiesel badge. I'll be able to see for sure when it's on hulu.com. No Tivo for me.

It sounded like one.

I heard it too. It sounded like a 617, but I saw a 3rd brake light so it could've been a 603 with a problem. Did you also find it funny that the assassin would drive a particularly loud car? He's got a silencer on his gun, too bad his getaway will be heard by all.

I'm psyched to be contributing to this thread, as I've started to see MBs everywhere now. A guy in a beautiful 560 let me out of my street the other day.

I don't know if anyone watches, but on Arrested Development the family car is a 420SEL I believe. Definitely a 420, might have the letters wrong though. It's in a good number of episodes, like when Lucille gets into the accident, and when they're kids and Michael drops his ice cream in the back seat, but I couldn't really read the model until the episode when Buster hides in the trunk to try to escape to Mexico to avoid going into the Army.

Just adding this to the list.
