That would be OK if it were some rice burner.
Please do not do this to a Mercedes.

Thank God no but trust me the location was a bit of a shock to me. The pictures lead me to think that this thing lives in New Britain somewhere. (Give me a few minutes, i'll track it down )The reflection shot is most definitely Hartford however.


Edit: Ok I found the street where these photos were taken. (New Britain as I predicted) Anyone want me to pop over there and see if I can snap a few pictures for puke value verification?

Isn't New Britain kind of a ghetto?

Car would probably be OK once you sprayed the top black and got rid of those cheap Chinese headlights, oh and the wing.

I think the stripe on the side was layed out in an interesting way.

I'll dissent and say I think it looks nice. If it were, say, a TD or a 5-speed I might be a little frustrated -- but this thing is still pretty common and, frankly, I think it looks good!
