Yes that is beautiful, when I was a kid I used to love Mercedes Benz just saying the name felt like a million dollars. Of course when I was old enough to be able to afford one they where pretty crap in comparison.

Beautiful machine. One of my neighbors up the street growing up had one of these with gold paint.
