I like it but it's a lot of money

If you were a collector it would be a cool car to buy

Not something I would get. That looks like the same color as the M3 Lime Rock Edition. Maybe if I owned a construction company. I could see myself in an orange C63 then...

This and that.
Probably pretty easy to wrap your car that colour or anything else for that matter.

The Lime Rock M3 Orange is actually a bit lighter then this.

Jaffa Orange is actually really nice looking, the depth of the paint looks phenomenal.

Not that expensive. You guys never mention that your salaries are a lot higher than most other places. I have friends in Sydney and they do the same thing as me here and make close to double.

Yeah but you have to remember our cost of living is in the top 5 highest in the world.
We are the 3rd most taxed country in the world. Home tax, stamp duty (home, luxury car tax, stamp duty (car), carbon tax, etc etc.

So yes the average person might make more in Australia than a lot of countries (average wage) but after they've paid all these taxes not to mention the price of bills and food here, then they're left with nothing. To pay for electricity in Australia you need to sell a limb lol.

PS: This car is ugly as dog shi*t.

I like it, the auto show pics seem to show more of the depth in that color and anything is an improvement over Mercedes current color palate of boredom.

Same here in NY. After all bills are done, most likely you'll realize you're in debt. Rent is crazy high in the city and lets not even get into taxes lol.

then why don't the people do something? I don't get humans, does the government own you guys or do you own it? All the government is, is a private corporation (with investors a.k.a the general population) it's not some god that came down from the sky like they tend to make people believe. Don't people get sick of being broke?

People are sheep. They are controlled by the government who is in controlled by the banks.
Look at Libya for example no taxes, fuel was 11c a gallon, so many incentives etc. Then the U.S orchestrated a proxy war with them because Gaddafi wanted to use the Gold Dinar as Oil currency.
Welcome to Democracy ay? There's more flaws and taxes to a Democracy than anything else.

Anyway lets not get into politics because we all know how that goes.

Moral of the story, this car looks like dog sh*t and i would never drive or even own it. I don't care if it's a limited edition or if Hans Mercedes built every single bit of it with his bare hands lol. I'd spend that money on something else.

A-MEN to that. Dont get me started on the Govt. slowly stripping our rights. Staging "acts of terror" to put the scare in the "sheep" then slowly, imposing laws to erode our liberties, under the guise of needing these laws to stop terrorism.

Not only is the Gvt. controlled by the PRIVATE banks, they own the BIG Media, and they chose what they want us to hear.

Yes, dont get me started!!! Hahaha. RawBenz and i are on the same page i think!
