look it up this car and the Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger is actually built on the old W210 mercedes platform, This was before the DaimlerChrysler Divorce. It rides nice because its a Benz but it has got all the ailments and yucky garbage quality plastics of american cars. You will be quite amazed to know that this engine is a OHV pushrod engine - one cam running in the block (imagine an engine from the 60s).
