few years ago, mb had their e55 amg as a pace car in f1. not sure if it was wagon or not. but it did a huge huge power overslide during the beginning of the race in malaysia where schumacher stalled on the start at the front of the grid, had to start in the back, and climbed back thru the field to finish 2nd...but lost the race to mika and title to mb/mika

here's another pic of the SL55 pace car for the FIA F1 shown in this year's Essen Motor Show. Check out the different front spoiler design.
