Mercedes sedans in movies?

I was inspired my a thread on my AE86 forum years ago. I was watching the new release "The Place Beyond the pines" with Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper (got it for the wife), and as its turning out ok so far what with the amount of dirtbikes involved (one of my other loves) except for the fact that when they're racing they are 2strokes but when trail riding they are 4strokes? (as they SHOULD be, except it was the same bike, noise just changed from scene to scene, much like John Conner's little CR80 in T-2, but i digress) ..after an "incident" (not movie narking) Ryan Gosling's chatacter ensues in a action packed scene in which i immediately paused, And no b.s. this is the first try pausing, and taking screen shot on pos Samsung phone, with no advertised mp rating, of, fortunately a NOT so pos Samsung T.V.

The whole point of this is this is MY car, same color, with exception of being 3.5l om603 and not 3.0.

Lets see some more classic MB 4dr's in big time movies!

The Secret World of Arrietty, the 2010 Hayao Miyazaki animated film features a Mercedes sedan in the opening scene and periodically afterwards. As with most of his films, the detail is amazing for a background object.

A 6.9 features prominently in Ronin.

[edit] And the 6.9 Robert Loggia drives in Lost Highway!

The Green Hornet was on the other day. In the final scene where the Imperial Crown changes from white to black, it passes a horizon blue 108 with ridiculously wide wheels.

There's a 123 with CLK wheels in the Party Rock Anthem music video.
