Yeah...but I think the big light and the smaller one will be connected in some way...the black tape is just covering that...so the lights probably won't look that bad...

I saw the R Class in person and while it will make a great uber minivan, its just that a minivan, and not an exciting car at all.

I don't understand why MB is producing AMG versions of any of its family vehicles, including the R-class, M-class, and E-class wagon.

I can understand the E Class wagon, since a E class AMG Sedan was already made.

Yeah, I was reluctanct to include it, but I figured someone (ifcar most likely) would say something if I didn't include it.
