huh? that FOUR DOOR merc a rallye car?

[Κracus]

Diamond encrusted cars for the win.

Ostentatiousness in shiny ugliness.

What kind of retard besides Zha Zha Gabor would even think that's cool?

One powerwash away from losing $1 million in value.

lol, it's not really my style either tbh, I just find it's pretty unique in it's shinyness. And I'm aware those aren't really diamonds. It's still cool.

Not really, it was direct competition for the M3 in DTM races during the late 80's early 90's.

duh, not even the same, hence my surprise.

190 E 2.3-16 & 2.5-16 "Cosworth"
Back in the late 1970s, Mercedes competed in rallying with the big V8-powered Coupé's of the R107 Series, mainly the light-weight Mercedes 450 SLC 5.0. Mercedes wished to take the 190 E rallying, and asked British race car engineering company Cosworth to develop an engine with 320 bhp (239 kW) for the rally car. This project was known as project "WAA" by Cosworth"[3]. During this time, the Audi Quattro with its all wheel drive and turbocharger was launched and made it apparent that the 2.3-16v would not be competitive.[vague] With a continued desire to compete in high-profile motorsport with the 190, and also now an engine to do it with, Mercedes turned to the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM) (German Touring Car Championship) motorsport series instead. Cars racing in this championship, however, had to be based on a roadgoing model. Mercedes therefore had to put into series production a 190 fitted with a detuned version of the Cosworth engine. This high performance model was known as the 190 E 2.3-16, and debuted at the Frankfurt Auto Show in September 1983, after its reputation had already been established. Three cars, only slightly cosmetically altered, had set three world records in August at Nardo, Italy, recording a combined average speed of 154.06 mph (247.94 km/h) over the 50,000 km endurance test, and establishing twelve international endurance records.

and yes, the rally car was going to be a Four door.
Once Audi played its hand in the WRC, Mercedes released the Cosworth on the street, then into the DTM as stated above..
the Evo's came after that, ( the picture is of an Evo-II by the looks of it, Edit: checked the pic, it is. )

100% electric powered car that does 0-60 in 6 seconds and a top speed of 125 mph. Prototype is already being track tested.

[Doombrain]

125? gay

[werldhed]

Doesn't the Tesla Roadster already have more impressive stats than that?

I like the profile. The front is ridiculous, though.

[Deathshroud]

[werldhed]

See, this is the sort of thing I'm talking about. Bright orange wheels and mirrors on a silver car? That's not sexy. It's just goofy.

[plained]

at 1rst glance the orange looks ps to me

I would drive it. The color scheme doesn't seem to make much sense, but its a different kind of car which it's paint makes more obvious.

[Dr_Watson]

looks pretty fugly to me.

[+JuggerNaut+]

paint those fuckers black and it's on.

[Nightshade]

Different strokes and all that, but GODDAMN that orange looks fucking nasty on those wheels.

It reminds me of Clint Eastwood's line in The Rookie as he's gazing with disgust at a bright lime green Lotus Esprit Turbo: "Any man that would paint a car like that that color ought to have his ass removed."

[Deathshroud]

paint those fuckers black and it's on.

I never liked rims completely blacked out. I must have an eclectic eye or something.

[bitWISE]

Yea the rest of the orange would be fine if the wheels were black with a orange rim around the rim.

[Foo]

I'm picking this up on Sunday (subject to checking it out in person and sorting out insurance):

[Nightshade]

Good deal man, like the color. Pimp++
