that first pic looks like something that would have been thought up in the late 70's... the rest of the car looks like an ugly modded 99/02 CL...

But can you select your Intergalactic Transponder presets from the steering yoke?

Not impressed

I like the exterior but the interior is yuck. Looks like something GM might have come up with - 10 years ago! The technology looks "thrown together" without any harmony or cohesive design or planning.

This is a very old concept car from the late nineties that previewed the current CL. This concept is outdated to say the least.

Mercedes all the way!
yeah this car is something like a decade old now! have periodically gotten it in my emails from friends =)

the reason it looks like the W220 is because this was one of the concepts for the W220 and the CL - i.e. it predates the W220.

still, looks like some of the concepts back then did get used: the headlights (as mentioned); general shape (CL); screens for instruments (W221); panorama sunroof (although not quite as extreme).

THis post is hilarious, especially what most of you what you had to say about it. I have to agree with most of you guys, that a: the car is ugly b; the spoke transponder and c; the headlight needs an update.
