That is clean! I am one of the people who doesn't hate the r class. I have driven the v8 one and it feels exactly like a mercedes does inside and drives exactly like a mercedes does. I was actually going to use the R class bumper for a while to make a custom bumper for my GS but never got around to it.
Their is nothing anyone can do to make the R class look clean it is fugly beyond belief right up there with the PT cruiser. Worst failure of a Mercedes ever , thank god they no longer deal with Chrysler to make that pacifica crap a Benz.

In Europe and Japan you almost never see cars w/ leather besides the top models and even those are available with cloth. Only in America is everyone all leather-eyed and somehow cloth = cheap. If I could easily get a cloth interior like the Cima's come w/ in Japan I'd take it over leather any day. Leather does absolutely nothing for me. Leather in the bedroom is a different story :runcoold: That R class, I always thought has loads of potential, looks really good. Needs to go about an inch lower and it's perfect. You have your own version of a mini bullet train w/ that sucker.

Having said that...I have to agree that it is one of the worst efforts ever put out by Mercedes.
this is a clean ass r class...i have seen it in person and is put together very nicely. it looks dope in person and even doper while its rolling....i would rock it any day
Mercedes-Benz's sister-company, Chrysler, already has a vehicle rather like this called the Pacifica. But the two share no components and they're really very different from one another. The Pacifica, while it also drives nicely for a vehicle of its size, is more minivan-ish in shape and SUV-ish in driving character than the R-class.
While the R-class is four inches longer than the Chrysler Pacifica -- and it has a 10-inch longer wheelbase, making for a wider turning circle -- the R-class is much easier to manage in a crowd than it's wide-hipped, narrow-windowed cousin
That looks awesome bOosty! For a wife / family car, that R-class is sweet. But then, I like the whole mini-van carry lots of people in comfort and style thing. edit: from CNN.com [quote] Mercedes-Benz's sister-company, Chrysler, already has a vehicle rather like this called the Pacifica.

How lame they try to pass a nice azz Mini Van like this off as a SUV.. They have the controller/air module for this on the Bay...
if they can drop it like that...hmmm.i never looked at them this way before...... Shall I say it... Kind of like it....:shrug:
An R350 here in Indonesia is over $100,000 which immediately puts it at the top end of the minivan food chain. In fact only big time bosses' wife, lawyers' mistresses and socialite soccer moms buy them. I took one for a test drive during a "mercedes driving experience" class and I was very very unimpressed by it. But then again, I was pushing it to its limit on a closed circuit and we got to test its character on wet/ice simulated condition, etc. Can't expect too much from a minivan. Other than that, for city driving and running errands, it seems like the perfect car. The price is ridiculous though. And I am still waiting for antbo's cousin's pic..... (yes, I will do the dirty work hahahah)
Siiiick I love it I think the R-class is a good looking vehicle, even stock, but I can see how it's a love-it or hate-it design. Vaguely Verossa-like hahah
arent the R-class vans really fast ??? so i've heard..:dance:
The C class was a major victory for MB to attract the younger crowd it was not getting. Its sales volume was spectacular and brought the market in the doors to upgrade. I worked for MB during both releases and the caravan cornered better than the R on a track and the B Class blew its doors off. I do think the C was not the best looking but it worked for its purpose the R has horrible sales and looks. That pic does make it look better but like the saying goes its just polishing a turd. The cloth thing has already been mentioned as what people demand not what is perceived as luxury.
