Mercedes Benz Huh...

Citizens of the world, it has come to my attention that Mercedes Benz has made quite the error in their advertising. If you draw your attention to my signature, you shall see the error in the photo below:





In case you don't see what's funny, I'll make it easy. Smack dab in the middle of the photo is my 760Li parked outside the showroom. Apparently the night I visited Daytona Mercedes with my brother to look at a AMG E class they were taking photos of the dealership.

Yes, I'm sure it's my car and it's quite funny too that a BMW would be in the About us photo at a MB dealer.


EDIT: here is the link to their site:

on a side note, the R-Class has to be one of the ugliest vehicles to grace the road today. I think it's only saving grace is the tri-star on the hood...

Mercedes either gets the motor right but the car ugly, or gets the car right looking good, but then screws up the motor or interior...

You should mess with them and send them an email asking for royalties for your car improving their image.

It is amazing that nobody at the dealership or the Web Designer knows, or maybe just not care. They really know their product.
