Hot! Mercedes-Benz, What's Next?

[lukeswiss]

AFAIK You can always import the car as a used car from the US, but it must be at least 6 months old.
US versions doesn’t have gpf and therefore don’t meet the current emissions and noise levels, but because it’s a used car it doesn’t matter.

That’s something people can still do with the V12 S680 although I guess noise levels are not an issue with this car.

There was a period where a lot of people were importing cars from the USA to Switzerland.... you used to see a lot of those yellow reflector lights ... I think it was the 2000s ?

I would never say that Mercedes would end up like this one day.

Before anyone starts swearing at me that its “AI slop” or whatever the f, there is enough speculation in this thread to leave some space for this - imho - great Le Mans concept made by “ev_o_lu_m_e_3”. As an admirer of the CLK GTRs design, I think this would be sick on todays roads, much cooler than the AMG 1:

It takes some inspiration from the wheel arches of that early 20th-century model that broke all speed records.

Speaking in relation to this…Is the Aston Martin Valhalla Mercedes’s rear Mid-Engine Supercar in disguise?

It looks gorgeous indeed, but no Mercedes DNA whatsoever. Cover the Mercedes logo and it could be every other hypercar.

I saw an EQE sedan the other day and I must admit, it was an attractive vehicle from the angle I saw it. Alpine Gray with night package and, perhaps, the AMG sports package. This car was just marketed wrong. And priced totally wrong too.

Unfortunately I must agree. They could go down this route though, I feel like the Maybach 6 was close enough to this on the other end of the spectrum
