| I saw a black E-Class... With the Lorinser grille. I'm shocked. No one in Michigan mods their cars except for ricers.  | ||

Found this though

Be rollin' 8 deep mah nigga!!! hehe I could vomit from it. The lights do seem 'now' more than anything else on the automobile, but you've got to include the taillights in that as well-- those giant, bulbous things quite remind me a late neon's posterior.  That thing is an abomination! It'll be as classic as... (Mercedes_w123_limo7.jpg) Attachments ----------------  Mercedes_w123_limo7.jpg (64KB - 1 downloads) | ||

The 220 and 215 (pictured) are a problem for me. In fact, the taillights are the only thing preventing me from picking up a 215 about now. (Especially since their prices have come down what with the intro of the 216.) That, and the fact that I don't fit very well into that gigantic coupe..

| Marsden Classic MB Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: Capital City USA Vehicle(s): Mercedes-Benz | RE: I saw a black E-Class... It's funny how the CL's headlights don't bother me a bit though, It's because MB left the shape alone. They're ever-so-slightly elongated and streamlined, but not so much as the E. As a result, the front end looks quite classic to my eye and I think it will age well.

I thought you drove the little coupé? Is it like the neon v. Mustang thing? Bigger on the outside; smaller on the inside? I'm the perfect size to drive anything-- 4X4 chassis trucks to wee lil' neons Hoorah for being average!! Tall men, though...  hahahaha | ||

Anyway the CLK has vastly more headroom than the CL, it makes no sense. As I am nearly 6'-4" with my shoes on, this is a critical issue
Before anyone jumps in, yes cabrios do have generous headroom, with the top down

| Re: I saw a black E-Class... I love the rear ends of the CL and S! They're so smooth flowing and sets the trunk off nicely. Even dead bodies should go in style.  | ||

| RE: I saw a black E-Class... I'm a coupé boy myself, but they've turned the market for these car into a neon or Viper choice-- there's been absolutely no middle ground for years, and now that they're making them again-- there's absolutely no demand. The 5-Speed is the same thing. You buy the cheapest economy model, or the expensive limited-production model to get one. They're unavailable in the middle-market. I guess what this means to me is that I get the choice of a new cheap car, or a used car the same age as the car it's replacing.  I hate it. Those S/CL rear lights have been horribly tarnished by Honda's lifting their design. I can't look at the rather handsome MBs without thinking about that. | ||

| Re: I saw a black E-Class... Looks like there are more '04s (on AutoTrader and eBayMotors) with AVS than '05s. I know you want them in the $50k range while still having a big chunk of the warranty remaining so I didn't post any '04s. | ||
