Mercedes Movie

Everybody on this forum needs to see "Unknown" with Liam Neeson, Diane Kruger, January Jones and about a million Mercedes Benz's. I swear Mercedes must have bought the rights to that film hook line and sinker.

No kidding. Best all Mercedes car chase I've seen. Movie was ok. My wife couldn't stand it. I thought the basic idea was pretty creative.

It was almost comical there were so many. I thought the scene with the prince showing up a the Adlon was a brilliant piece of advertising. No other manufacturer can approach that "thing with the doors"!

Agreed! It looked like an MB commercial to me with the SLS being the prince's car and the Maybach (?) behind as the support vehicle.

Loved the part where he was being chased by the guy in the VW Touareg and his W124 taxi's windshield had some fluid so he had to ask how to turn on the wipers

Didn't notice the Maybach.
