Talking about boy racers!!!!

What you think about this blasphemie?

http://www.autocentre.ua/article/6253.html

Yes it is a W123 and not a W124 or a W201. Not a diesel but we should get a kick of this 280C...

i dont think this was made by some shmoe out to supe up his car.. they made this for a show.. not tastily done, but that's what some people look at when they go for shows...

I've even seen, Cefiros (A31) made to look like a BMW 5 series, a Corona (I dont know if you have them in the US) to look like a new MB -->

Russians man, all I can say is... Russians...

Edit: After taking a second look, the web address is a Ukrainian one, and the car is sitting in front of a Ukrainian-made Antonov AN-24, so I should have said, even though every thing on the site is in Russian...

Ukrainians man, all I can say is... Ukrainians...

Arrow Check out the key chain....

That interior has a ......well.....er.....(how to be politically correct here?)......South of the border, sexy look......kinda like a Black Velvet Elvis painting.......

And I noticed what looks like a hood star on the key chain, in the ignition.....status, Ivan......or perhaps it's Borat's car......yup, that's it....the official Borat Car.....

Is that Han Solo's car?

Looks like one of those opposition fighters in the original
Star Wars movies.

I do like what they did to the gauge cluster
and the center console, it looks different.

The w126 nose conversion looks out of place.

When is the next flight to Mars?
