I was thinking it would be a super rare exotic car but I immediately knew it was a S when I saw the dash.

S-Class it is. The dash, though, from some angles, can be confused with a Genesis sedan.

He kind of reminds me of myself, though. That is the way I often review and test-drive new vehicles....with casual clothing and a baseball-cap. When I go to a Mercedes shop, though (and that of a few other premium-brand dealerships) I usually dress a litttle nicer than that.

When I went to buy my X5 the salesman thought I was a joke because I was wearing jeans, a t-shirt and scandals and I guess because I'm African American. But looks can be deceiving

What are scandals? I thought those were just in the newspaper or for the Twitheads...

It's actually the way I shop for everything if I have to go in - I dress well for regular things, but pants are a no go on weekends. It's just too damn hot here, and I like to be comfy. Besides, when I'm writing the check, does it matter what I look like?

Haha wow I mean sandals I purchased it in fall of 07 so it wasnt that hot. Lol speaking of hot, my thermostat in my GS said 122 degrees today. I know its off but damn its hot down here in FL. I agree about appearance. I only dress up on special occasions like dinner etc.

I understand the S-class has an excellent safety record in protecting china dolls. (I'm gonna catch heck for that statement if my Lion-season-ticket-holder son reads that.)
