That is one of the ugliest cars I've ever seen. Who in the world approved that for production?
Car Top Systems is a separate company jointly owned by Mercedes and Porsche, so GM found the easiest way was to subcontract the design and manufacture to specialists. Wasn't enough to dave this dog.
This car will only increase demand for the SL. You really would not want to be seen driving up to the golf club in one. In fact, I think I even prefer to have an SC430 to this thing but I'd probably just tick the "Neither" box and buy a Hummer instead.
