JMO but it was a waste of the time I spent reading it. But to each his own.

Wouldn't it be easier (and cheaper) just to buy the Merc in the first place???

A well sorted SC will always be worth something. The "more" water cooled cars Porsche produces the more valuable the (unmolested) air cooled cars become.

Don't let anybody tell you otherwise. :cool:

They are selling the Fiat Spider that was ''converted'' into a Ferrari for the Ferris Bueller movie, and it is on Ebay right now.

Looks like it will get some fair coin, and it was well done.

I once heard that C-class stood for "'Can't' afford a real Mercedes"...so if you are going to pass a Honda off as a Mercedes, why choose a C-class, even an AMG? ;)

Geez, you guys. It's got a Knight Rider light bar in the grille. Gawd. Stop with the naysaying. This thing is gonna be Über cool.

I thought it was made from an MG. Do you have a link to the eBay listing?
