euro car spottings!

["Ryan Schuermann" <rts@phoenix.net>]

non-scirocco related but a truely cool story none the less.

Cruising to work this morning, i came upon a butt-ugly Euro
car. It had a euro-plate positioned between the rear lights and it 
looked like the car was made for the euro plate, no body kit,
recessed plate hole etc. But the car looked like CRAP. the rear
lights were composed of one round lense, then 2 rectangles below it 
staggered inward. pulling alogn side it you could see it was nothing 
more than black sheetmetal , you could see all the rivets and no
side or wheel well trim molding. So I'm thining what the hell is 
this piece of junk from oversees..why didn't this moron just lease a 
VW or BMW once here. pulling in front of it the front end didn't 
offer much help, no lights, just plastic lenses covering the areas 
and taped off, but they looked darn professionally taped. the car
looked like a porpose...a smll grill in the center of the car, making 
it looked liek it stuck out because of the absence of the ligh 
lenses. No badges no nothing! But then..the next car in front of it 
looked just the same! then another,then another but this one had 
lights, and some side molding..hrmm I started to recognize the grill,
then the 5th was the same car but more complete looking..MERCEDES!
..totaly wicked experience seeing these 2 door Merc's cruising down 
the freeway, they were'nt SLC style though..more like a toyota tercel
crossed with a bmw 325i....damn and too bad the wife took the camera 
out of the car =[
