I never noticed this before until today; just decided to play Grand Theft Auto San Andreas after years of collecting dust, and carjacked a w123. I'm sure alot of you have noticed this before, but I was excited. Im considering calling my car the Admiral... kind of a good ring to it.

Maybe it's just a coincidence that the car looks like a 123?

If you play the game Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, in the introduction you ride around in a W115 I believe it was, though the interior of the car was modelled after a later model, a W126 maybe.

It was still kinda cool though, everything was there, including the shifter, speedometer/tach, etc.

I feel old saying this, but like 6 years ago when I used to play the Microsoft "Midtown Madness" PC driving games, I'd download lots of MB's and do all kinds of interesting stunts with them. They even had a MB Actros flatbed semi. Now that was a fun one to cruise around in.

It almost looks like a Chrysler.
