    There's a lot of effort in the Benz, but I'm with Dave that I like the copper & patina more than I like the airbrushing on this Benz. I like a lot of what the artist did on that Benz, but the rust effect is one of the "nope's" to me - I like the color, the metal plateing effect, the wheel size stencil on the pulled fenders, and the overall lack of shine.

    But I like it the same way I like the BMW art cars, not a DD to me. I'm not one for overtly loud colors on a car, let alone "one of a kind" type paintjobs, not on a DD anyhow. I'm just trying to keep my isht from getting jacked, let alone call attention to it.

    I love the stance on that thing though, and I love looking at euro-stretch tires. 18x13 rear wheels......must look sick from down low.

    It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.

        I think it looks absolutely sique. I like the hoodride style. Reminds me of Rat Rods of the 50s and shit.

              most ricers follow this same principle.

                isn't there a trend in the vw crowd to rock rusted hoods on perfectly painted cars?

                  That car is f**king UGLY imho. Why build a nice car on super expensive wheels and then paint it to look like shit? I dont get it. It's like putting Angelina Jolie's head on Sally Struthers' body. WTF?

                      Actually her big fat head (that reminds me of John Voigt everytime I see it) is the worst feature on her body .
