Uh, oh. Did Chris Bangle get canned at BMW and go to work for M-B?

Does the "face" of this car look familiar?

From Fritz Lang's Metropolis :



http://www.blarg.net/~dr_z/Movie/Pos...polis_Rep.html


Brigitte Helm, the actress who played the film's heroine, Maria, and who inspired the robot False Maria...compare the rear "face" of the car to the previous image as well as the actress as she appeared in the film as Maria here:

its hideious imho

i wont be getting anymore benzes in the near future with all the new redesigns... they are making the models smaller and more aerodynamic in an ugly way.

i think only the SLR, CL still looks good so far

E is ok but the rear im not digging

remodel 04 SLK with F1 nose is so so
remodel 05 SL with SLR hood is so so
