there are enough bullet-into-car stories in the papers lately to make me think about adding toughened glass and door inserts. (not that i have knowledge of any enemies out there. ;-)

i'm fairly certain that door panels would be possible, but do you think windows would be possible?

does anyone know a good converter for MB overall?

i recall MB marketing via the web what i think was called a "guard" version of the S. do they still market that or any other armored vehicle?

if you really want a car with armor, look into the S class.

already found used and new armored S, as well as new G500 and G55.

just wondering about the SL, which i think would be difficult to convert.

after reading the sun-sentinel story on kid shot dead while driving @ 3a on I95, and reviewing similar stories, i think it'd be wise to consider minimal lite armor -- doors and windows -- on personal vehicles. a growing number of increasingly brazen loons with guns is good reason, don't you think?
