W212 E Class vs Rolls Royce Ghost

Well, not the way you think that's why please accept my apologies in advance

I would like to show you two of my fave cars from my mini 1/18 car collection .

As you can see MB W212 E Class is more sporty and attractive than all the details but this could vary people to people so opinions may vary

Bummer, I just sold mine (1:18 AutoART) on eBay as I no longer have my S550. And I sold it cheap. I still have my 1:18 CL600 model.

Thank you , pano roof is an option for entry levels or you can add it on your list when placing an order if you like . For some high packages such as Premium 2 , Premium , Premium Avantgarde it comes standard
Good spot on

Standard sunroof is standard but if you order P2 aka Premium packages Premium and Premium Avantgarde packages pano roof replaces it but you can drop it if you like and have sunroof instead
I honestly consider dropping it in favor of night vision but they told me pano roof was more desirable option

LOL, my previous post was related to my 1:1 car "real deal" lol , not this 1:18
Seriously, I haven't taken any notice whether it has sunroof nor pano . May be it was paying less attention to details by the manufacturer lol
