I found these two pictures on the net. The car was standing on the parking lot of the Geneva Motor Show. It has German plates on it, so probably owned by a Mercedes executive. Interestingly enough, it does not have "WERKSWAGEN" on the back. Very, very cool car. Hope to see it in some different colours soon!

Awesome!


But what's with MB and silver cars. They're just so ugly, IMO.

That is the badge placed on the factory cars while testing. Don't know the exact translation but something like Work Wagon...

That color may not be silver but Andorite Grey...it is difficult to tell unless it is next to a Iridium Silver. I understand the Andorite Grey is in response to complaints about only a Flint Grey and Silver colors with no light greys.

jack, that is iridium silver. This is not Andorite Grey for sure.

It basically means "Works car" in German. Many of the pre launch test cars had it stated on the rear of the car. I mentioned it because it maybe means the car is ready for sale??

I assume that they don't have to test a lot, because the car itself has been tested for a long time already and the engine and transmission have also been used for a couple of years...

BTW.. here is a pic of a test car:

Now I get really mad. Here is another one!!!

This one has some camouflage on, and was spotted around Nurburg in Germany. Color seems a bit different as well.

How do you know that is a S65? It could be a S63.
