God the thing looked better with camo on it. MP4-12C all the way

tweak the red sliders lin lightroom to flatten out most of the car for starters?

thought of another one.
scrap it and sell the new Z4 instead. BMW clearly understands how to make a modern, beautiful, long bonnet sportscar.

@zamafir i think the z3 and z4 were some of the ugliest cars made. i like the aircraft carrier hoods and think the SLS is beautiful.
at least we can agree on the CR-V

The appearance of only negative comments on here is amusing, clearly everyone who likes it is too busy playing with the site! Personally, I really like it, think it's the first exciting Mercedes in years... but we're all entitled to our opinions :)
(The site however... well i didn't think the quality was great to be honest, the images seemed a bit rough around the edges, and the 'Visulizer' was rather static.)

Parallel parking with that thing would be quite a bother, wouldn't it?

@havoc - the New Z4? The one I commented on? I'm not a huge fan of the z3 or previous z4 but the new z4? much much better

One word can be used to describe this car: ugly.

I dont know if its growing on me yet......I like it from some angles but its got a quirky shadow. Sounds like its a great driver's car though, which is something you can never have enough examples of

Listen to the sound clip. The SLR was one of the sexiest sounding cars ever and this seems to be just as good.

Agree to the engine sound which is just amazing. Like the rest of the car.

Does it tell me how I can afford it? Maybe a 30 year no interest payment option.

It's the classic sports car style. Go back and look at the original 300SL or the old E-Types.

It allows the entire engine to sit behind the front wheels in this thing, for starters.

AC0,
You were right, we were playing on the site and it is awesome.
This car is hot, got to have it.
Can't wait to throw those gullwing doors up at the club.
