Kleeman does tend to go a little over the top sometimes, and they just did again. Ugly and fast, kind of like the shoe-style M3. And talk about answering the question that no one asked.

Hey!

Back off guys. I too think it's ugly, but they designed it with a specific purpose in mind: off road use. After all, it IS a 4matic. They must have figured that if consumers are purchasing 4 wheel drive vehicles, they must take them off road from time to time.. so why not properly equip the exterior so as to minimize potential damage? I find nothing wrong with that.

Now, why anyone would need 595hp while offroading beats the hell out of me (chased by cheetahs in the savannah?)! But, hey, to each his own.

And, yes, it does look like a Subaru. (yuck!)

(If you think that taking a w211 4matic off road is an oxymoron, how about consumers that purchase SUVs [read as: 4wd/awd vehicles] that never see any action beyond a stroll down luxury lane!)


My $.02

Talking awesome!

Well I think it is absolutely awesome. Allroad + ML + E-class, baby. It's like an e55 4matic but with more power and more baby space...

Vroom vroom.
