I agree. Looking at the front bumper would probably be early 80's model.

So easy, it’s the extremely rare Mercedes Gmoney model. They only made a handful of them with a 1,000 hp twin turbo V8.

MKS was Taurus/Five Hundred, MKZ was Fusion.

Thanks for that. I couldn't remember. I was never fond of that naming scheme.

Close but no cigar. Not sure I'd ever seen one before if I had I'd forgotten.

i'm actually really enjoying that lmao... that's the type of 'up-badging' i can get behind

years ago i'm leaving a parking lot and see some mid to late 20 something year old looking guy getting into his 'SL500 AMG' and with a big smirk i go ohhh!!! the SL500 AMG i haven't seen that one before! he realizes i know what's going on, and with an equally big smirk replies (in a slavic accent) "AMG chip"

and this was like circa 2015 before there were officially licensed fake AMGs, so really the only person who'd recognize that badge is the same person who knows it doesn't belong... this however is clearly a joke and i love it
