ribatejo69, you should at least warn people that these aren't real.

Some poor old chap might take this crap seriously.

:confused:
how can I know? for me it's possible, just one more prototypes who died in the dark of construtor's garages...
but my formal excuses for the virtual car. and thanks for clear eyes, detected photoshops mistakes, my can't do.
by the way: how you see is a photoshop? I look the pics (the four...) and don't see any wrong lines, copy and past, etc...:confused:

easy to see when you work with that software each and every day...:p
for example look at the arch of the backwheel (black car) it's not worked accurately, I'm not quite sure if you're still kidding...:rolleyes:

This shows exactly why you should know some basic automotive history:).

These chops look good enough for me, I can't detect any obvious mistakes. For a moment I even wondered if this could be a real car. However, looking at the pictures, I started having doubts. The so-called concept of this car is really absurd. Cutting one third from the mid-range sedan chassis does not give you a compact chassis. It's like chopping E-class half to create A-class.

On the other hand - my knowledge of old Mercedes concepts is rather poor, so I decided to dig deeper.

Since both photos are taken in public place, one is even showing the licence plate, this "prototype" should be well known. After quick google search all I could find is a link to french car forum in which the word photoshop is pretty frequent. Not good. The final nail in the coffin was the picture I found from Mercedes-Benz press site. That's it.

They could still be the grandfather of the modern C-class Sportcoupe... ;)
