Mercedes R Class
Anybody want to see some pictures of the R500? I don't know whether they're hitting all the dealers or if you can even order one yet but I spotted one at my local M-B dealer while I was at the neighboring BMW dealer dropping off the X5 and I snapped a bunch of pictures, including interior. (The left it unlocked, keys in it. I shoulda taken it for a test drive)

I'll post them when I get home from work but if it's already a common sight I won't waste my or your time.

I saw one over the weekend. Absolutely horrible looking. I have no clue what MB was thinking. It looks like a Pacifica. Yuck!

Just drove past my local MB dealer with my wife. We both thought it was incredibly ugly, and we have always loved the looks of MB cars!

I agree that it is a Mercedes badged Pacifica. I like the fascia but that's about it. I looked at Kewl's pics and it looks like they changed the dash a little from showcar to production.

I'll probably post the pics just to gross you all out.
