I counter that the regular C series sedan of a similar vintage (especially the C230) was way, way, way fucking worse. Mostly because it was simultaneously fucking terrible AND pretentious. At least the coupe was available without all the crap that was going to break ANYWAY.

Only 2 MBs were available in a stick for the US market at that time. They aren't that terrible.

The Grand National is missing two cylinders. Shoulda picked a V8.

As a science popularizer, he's done his job by instigating this very conversation.

Yeah, they're either 60's vintage looking or their rectangular. Here's my pair:

I've been wearing clear acrylic frames for about a year now. I was originally looking for some ballistic glasses which I could wear every day, but ended up finding a pair of everyday glasses I really liked. I like how unobtrusive they are. Get a lot of compliments on them.
