Wow, that is very impressive ! What a great looking custom MB and certainly a standout in any collection.

...I saw this one a few weeks ago but didn't understand it. I mean, it looks VERY cool but is this an actual car or a GT Spirit creation or ???

looks like the custom is already built and sold but looks different than the original rendering and the model.

@chav AWESOME!  Well, that clears all that up! I much prefer the GT Spirit version based on the artist's conception. What was actually produced is, IMO, not as attractive. A good example of "something got lost in the translation." 

Again, great work Chav, thanks! 😎 😎

I agree with you. I like them all but the real customs got a bit too kitschy.

Amazing! I saw the pics of that GT Spirit a few weeks ago and frankly I was waiting for comments like "Butt ugly" and "SACRILEGE!!!". I guess it's just me.

@rich-sufficool - Well, that's likely the reaction from dignified people who are noted with discriminating taste and class.  People like you.  However, uncouth, cheap wine swillin' cretins like me love that kinda stuff.  LOL!

@marty-johnson I guess I'm just too 'old school' (well I know I am). I realize there's no universal truths or taste. This just one more reminder of that.
