I fear not.
Bangle-ism has polluted the culture of car design.

And Mercedes is jumping on the Bangle boat.
The end of an era.

I read the press release from DC Media's website. I think its only the last 203 from the Sindelfingen plant. And most of the 203s, if not all that come to the US are from the Bremen plant. So I guess its not really the last 203 ever.
