I'm sorry but I am not feeling the MB. Looks like an SL500 with a body kit which I guess that it is. The Maserati, on the other hand, is incredible looking.

Well GM is copying Mercedes. If you look at the R129 Mercedes (90-02) SL class you will see that Cadillac XLR looks very similar.

+1! Have seen plenty in London and love those wheels, they're very unique and looks really nice!! Merc will never match Maser's styling!

I love it when i first seen it! Damn hot!

A few block away someone also ones a Maserati Gran Turismo. First time I saw it I was also wondering which brand of car it was, as especially at night it looks very impressive!

That Maserati looks great!

The MB looked good before the facelift, now it looks like a joke.

Not that I disagree with you, but how about M5. A 520 with a body kit?
