The image is owned by someone over there)<br><br>The two-tone body molding isn't all that attractive, but it was monotone on some later cars... but I mean other than that, they're good looking cars. They don't have the sleek, aerodynamic look of a lot of new cars do, but I like them.<br><br>And the W124 (the "original E class" that Dan refers to) isn't a bad looking car either, especially when it's a 500E:<br><a href="http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/5929/500erb0.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/5929/500erb0.jpg</a> (rehosted from VWVortex, again, didn't want to nuke their bandwidth)<br><br>But maybe it's just me. ;)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kevin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 26th 2008 12:49PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
