Thank you! I dont speak the language,so my cartoon lyrics were BS "sounds Swiss" stuff.

It's obviously a derision deflector-bar. Needs heavier tubing.

I am enjoying a mental cartoon of Swiss teenagers putting together a garage band to annoy their parents and doing a cover of the Dead Milkmen's "Bitchin Camaro".

Or, we could leave the PC bullshit and butthurt to Jezebel, and actually talk about cars. Something like a pre-kinja Jalopnik. If other peoples perception of your car is that central to YOUR feelings about it,then you are kind of a poser anyway. Nobody likes a whiny motorhead. Feel free to leave this in the gray.

I had the same thing happen at a Mercedes dealership when I got squeamish about the animal sacrifices.

Did Jezebel pull a Putin on Jalopnik or something?

Exactly. Well put. It annoys me to the point that as soon as I hear someone use the term, I stop listening.Can't help it. It's all clicks & whistles after that. And if they use it to describe something they want me to work on, the price just went up drastically.There is no school involved,only quality,or the lack of…

I'm guessing someone saw a pic of a D-type Auto Union and rightfully thought it looked bitchin. Kinja ate my pic.

Have some drain cleaner for breakfast. Hell,I'll buy..

Yeah,right.... 4 wheels and all that. If you can hold a bonghit long enough,the parts even interchange.

You think an AMG 560 SEC looks like a Japanese car?

"Bow down before me" is totally incorrect. The Official sentiment is "Look upon it,and despair,loser". And this "stupid snob shit" wishes you much happiness with your minivan.

That was 1992-mid 95ish. Simple to fix.

W140 S class are even cheaper and built much heavier.

Does $500 worth of ebay 18" AMG's on a $1000 craigslist w140 count for anything?

My 92 just got me from KC to Fernadina Beach,FLA,all over Georgia for a week,and back home,carrying me,the wife,and hundreds of pounds of gear 2 months ago.Had to stop somewhere in Tennessee,pull out the TS flasher,bang it on the B pillar and re-install .Thats it..My W140 Benz is faster and smoother,but occasionally…

The fact that you will still see these on the road as long as you live amuses me greatly. Hate away, Panther won't give a shit. Might as well be called the Honeybadger platform.

Someone posted about it over at BenzWorld.org. Most Benz nuts once had a moldy W123 that clanked us through Hell and back, stubbornly refusing to die. Most former Fox owners just remember the time something fell off while playing Bullitt in front of the Dairy Queen.

Mercedes W123

You guys seem to think I made this stuff up.It's a real thing. Muscle cars were a very narrow niche that were only built for more or less a decade. Many were over rated.And a well sorted 5.0 Fox will beat a lot of them.That's not the point.History is. And the dumbest thing I ever heard is people that haven't lived…
