i love it!

Back seats out and stick a 3.2 in there!

With the 2.6 upfront you just may not need that 3.2. Looks tasty though. I think I spy a 124 estate tailgate there. No rear wash wipe - but hell it probably goes like stink and nothing sticks to the back window.

There was also 2 door coupe, and cabriolet models...

I quite like it too, remember seeing pictures of it a while ago. Intrigued to see what the coupe may have looked like.

Oooh, just found this via Google:

No, it's a prototype of the original 1988 'Baby-Benz' that never was....

This one still exists and sleeps in an unknown Daimler basement somewhere in Stuttgart. They only take this beauty out for photo shoots and such.

I love the design, too bad it hasn't gone into production.

And out of the Bourne Identity (TV Film):

You would think a fabrication firm would have made the rear side windows one piece instead of keeping the quaterlight.
