Getting a little jaded, are we?

New SL63 - although not quite visible from these angles, they totally vandalized a masterpiece.

 

[sLg]

No they didn't, they improved it. The new CLS is vandalized... looks like a Lexus ES.

 

[McLaren]

Can I have what you're smokin' then?

 

[sLg]

The NEW CLS.

 

[sLg]

 

[McLaren]

That IS the new CLS.

Again, pass me what you're smokin' mate.

 

[sLg]

No, that's the facelifted 2009 CLS. If you look in the new Automobile magazine you will see (what is hopefully an artist's rendering) the new, facelifted CLS.

[McLaren]

Then that makes zero sense, seeing as the face-lift on the '09 CLS is going to be around for a couple years, so there's no point in introducing another CLS look.

Either way, you said the new CLS looks like an ES. The rendering isn't the new CLS because it's just an rendering from somebody. The 2009 though, is.

 

[sLg]

The 2009 changed like 2 things from the old one.

No they didn't, they improved it.

+1

New SL is gorgeous. Old SL is an undefined blob on wheels. Granted I love them both.

So jaded, harry, I didn't even get out of the car.

 

[McLaren]

The 2009 changed like 2 things from the old one.

It actually changed a lot. LED tail lights, 2 bars in the grill instead of 4, turn signal lights within the side mirrors, 17" & 18" wheels available, new options within the CLS63, and a new entry model, the CLS 280 with a 231Bhp V6.

 

[sLg]

That counts as a lot? I already knew all of those except for the CLS280.

 

[McLaren]

Then why did you say they changed 2 things?
There's more to do with the engine than anything really, but whatever mate....

 

[sLg]

Whatever. Is the 280 available in the US?

 

[Muzaffar]

Me likey very much...... 👍
D'oh! Why do I have these sudden urges with Mercs......

 

[mustangGT90210]

First ever Daihatsu in America for me! Tiny little thing.

Daihatsu Charade EX 3 door

 

[Tornado]

No they didn't, they improved it. The new CLS is vandalized... looks like a Lexus ES.

You forgot to note that the SL looks better from every angle except the front.
And the CLS wasn't that great of a looker in the first place.

 

[CyborgGT]

My friend's got a Daihatsu Rocky he takes offroading. I was surprised the company sold here too; it's still the only Daihatsu I can remember ever seeing in real life.

As for that Merc at the top of the page, are those 997 Turbo wheels? And how do you mean they molested it? Mercedes did? Personally, I think the facelift looks pretty cool.

 

[UnoMOTO]

I don't know where the Nismo starts and stops but this package looked real nice.

 

[Serge.D]

Lotus Elan.


Lotus Elise.


???


Buell.

For Cano.


'73 Beetle.
The owner asked me if I was interested in the car and then she told me it was for sale.
she asks 10.000€ for it.

 

[Barracuda]

The red truck is a Jeep, but I don't know the name.

 

[land sea air]

edited too quick for me

I believe that particular truck was sold as the apache

 

[Barracuda]

For some reason I'm having a hard time finding it on google. I knew it was a jeep from the start, but I can't find anything like that except for the wagoneer.

 

[Vonie]

Legit?

 

[Tornado]

???

Jeep J10 "Honcho." Considering there are probably only a dozen left in the U.S. that haven't rusted into the ground (If the Wagoneer is any indication), seeing one in Europe is a great find. Relatively speaking.

Saw one on the highway on the way to work a few days ago! I was rather surprised for the reason you mention...

Today, same highway, same morning commute I saw a Qvale Mangusta but sadly no photo was possible. I went nuts!

Stuff from the past couple days:

Caddy XLR-V, it still amazes me people buy these since they are soooooo over priced:

The ever common Bentley Conti GT:

The new and ugly BMW X6 complete with tags that read "X6 4FUN". At least the owner likes it:

It's not rare or anything I just really liked the rims on this BMW 7 series, they appear to be stock ones but I can't recall seeing them before:

Lotus Elise:

Nice old school Vette Convertible:

A really nice MGB GT, I really like this car for whatever reason:

Carrera S Cabrio at a golf course, how does one fit clubs in there?:

 

[land sea air]

I believe those wheels on the 7 series became the optional upgrade when they freshened the styling recently.

Looks like per the BMW website they are $5,295 !
