Oh yeah, Did you notice the rims are only held on by 3 lugnuts per rim?

And base price starts at 15,000, Fully loaded at 25,000.

Yeah, They're completely redesigning them this year, As well. So they may "look better" before next year.

The ad for the car says "SPACIOUS INTERIOR". My question is, what size person would fit? Because I really don't like driving while eating my knees.

Remember; since it is a 2-seater, and has NO rear seating, there is ample legroom inside. I doubt you'd want to plan a cross-country road trip in it though...

The same could be said about the Corvette. I can not fit comfortably in one of those.

Where does the diesel come into this? The info posted says "87 octane regular gasoline". Do the Mercedes sell them with smelly, noisy diesels? I saw information on these a few years ago, but don't see Americans doing anything with them. They'd be great on local streets, but I don't know how they'd fare on highways. I'm looking for cheap transportation, not $25,000. That sounds a little like price gouging. for what you're getting.

This thread has gone off the deep when we are comparing this turd-mobile to the vette!

Number 1. Read MY POST. It Could start at 15,000, And end at 25,000, FULLY LOADED!!! The reason it starts NOW at around 25X, Is because the first supply they have, Has a lot of Luxury parts.

Krejaton, It is not, I repeat, NOT a turd mobile. Besides the OLD STYLE Cummins Rams, This could be one of the best, And toughest cars, That DCX has ever built.


Well, Besides the OLD Chargers, Challengers, 'Cudas, And everything with OLD Hemis.
