7shades Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 Best series Merc, and (imo) one of the best looking coupes ever. Nice pickup. Quote
abbott Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 Very classy, clean car. Another good buy Troy, wouldn't do anything else Quote
BUZ440 Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 I thought I was about to be looking at the Gulwing Merc, being the luckiest person to own the original super car, haha nonetheless, that is cool, very clean also Quote

Raven Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 Done correctly it wouldnt ;) I know you're all about perioid-specific styling, but that doesnt necessarily mean period-specific engine. ;) I'll take you for a strap in the Chaser sometime :P Quote

I hated the thing, speed gives me no thrills. Just costs money and maintenance. Although the chaser is a very nice car of course. Edited July 21, 2011 by RA28GT Quote
