Have you ever seen a 2006 Mercedes with 164000klm
I have pics of some test vehicles that are very different. I will post them tonight. The cars are totally european with distributer flags and ragged with tons of miles. I cant tell you where I saw them But the pics are an interesting segway into a lots of Tech discussion. Come back and look later tonight. JJ

I think they spray paint them with flat black paint so as not to attract undue attention to a test car.

Those were the cars that you saw driving around in Germany during the
