WHAT IS THIS!?!?!?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MERCEDES-E500-KOMPRESSOR_W0QQitemZ230373445498QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item35a353cf7a&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245

Did they really attempt to convert a 1994 e500 to a w210?

Somewhat strange looking but otherwise pretty well done. Personally, the 124 front/rear is fine as is.

Yikes. The fit and finish of those lights and panels/bumper could fit a hand through them! Horrifying. The interior is pretty nice, but the exterior is horrifying. What a way to ruin the car.

Just goes to show how many people have more money than taste.

I'll bet that apart from ruined aesthetics, the crumple zones have been compromised.
