Nice, can't wait until I can afford one. Now that would look real pretty sitting in my garage next to an F car.

It would be more in the $350,000 range I'm afraid.

It's a good looking car, more refined than the SLR for sure, but I'm not sure if I like the B-pillar (or is it the C-pillar), looks like an afterthought to me.

Not that I wouldn't refuse this beast if it were given to me, but why doesn't MB make a graceful, clean looking car anymore? Everything has to be over the top, look at me, over done masculinity "bulges" everywhere. I'm not saying the 300SL was a conservative car and I can see the design cues in this car, but something went wrong, the rear looks like a Lexus SC (crap "sports" car) and the overall shape looks like a Dodge Viper.

Anyone else think it resembles a BMW Z8? Especially from the side profile view...but not nearly as ugly as the Z
