SL abomination
 
My apologies to anyone who has seen this before but try this

Is this an abomination or am I just being picky?:eek: Bear

That's mad bling bling.

$275,000??? Did they forget to put a decimal point in front of the 2?

I have seen this before and I am pretty sure it used to be owned by a member of the Rat Pack. I want to say Sammy Davis Jr, but it might have been Dean Martin.

Prototype my a$$!!!

With an OEM interior...it looks like a body shop creation for a celebrity in Las Vegas...with more $$$ than taste!

No way Mercedes-Benz would have released anything of such garage-shop quality fabrication as a prototype!

I guess because it is (was) owned by Wayne Newton that it's worth so much $$$$.

If I were going to acquire a celebrity MB, it would be Hitler's Mercedes!

It looks like a ................YUGO on steriods!!

:D :D

DEFINITELY more $$$ than taste...that thing is horrendous! Certainly looks like a car that a Vegas entertainer would drive! ;)

I would like to have that giant grille emblem to mount on my wall, though! :)

After seeing that, those Hondas that are all dresed up do not so bad!!

$275,000 for this piece of junk? Only Wayne Newton has such poor taste. Hope he did not pay $275K for it. If he did, boy he is more stupid than I thought.

I think I'm going to peuke:o

Now I remember where I've seen something like it before.We have backstreet customizers over here whose combination of angle grinders,welders,beer and no sense of taste produce some sorry looking cars!!;) Bear

Pretty da@# Ugly and what's with the weird etchings on the door handles ???

The engine looks okay though, maybe it's just bad case of Nevada skin cancer ;)

Those look to be Egyptian Hieroglyphics in the form of a Cartouche, a persons name.
