Thumbs up Check out that 500E
Turning a 500E into an EVOII replica Some of the stuff on this car is awsome and some other stuff is just too much... I love the wheels and the rear of the car looks OK, IMO

What do you guys think?

A bit over the top for me.
Looks like a 300D...with a manual trans too.

Thumbs down Ouch-that POOR CAR!
As co-moderator of this Forum, my 1st inclination is to delete this post and properly castigate its contributor, Mr. Racer-we may have to take your keys & put you in a rented domestic for awhile :p

And FWIW I believe the donor Benz in this botched surgery started life as a 300D 2.5

Yup, that's a turbo diesel - note the charge pipe going across the top of the engine? A little too wild for my taste.

things I like the best about it
1) the linoleum, tapa-print floormat

2) the color-form dial-faces

3) the Lincoln Mark IV "suffocation mask" grill
