Wow, never thought that was possible.
Doesn't look too bad, just the front needs a bit more work.
Give him credit for trying. Hahaha, that's rice to the next level.

Good find.

I saw that in person once! You gotta admit, it's ugly, but executed alright. A for effort; something less than an F for overall product.

Wow... but that's definitely not on of the worst craigslist finds I have found.

Not to threadjack but take a look at this beauty.

Poor ZJ's just can't get any love.
This made me want to cry

With the money he spent converting it, he probably could've just bought an actual S500, instead of failing epicly.

lolololololol, he neads to learn proper grammer too. But I give +1 for effort! From the back it is pretty believable, otherwise the front really needs some custom fittings done.

Sure, if you ignore the wrong roof line, interior, dash, engine, exhaust note...

it could pass as a custom benz with a slightly different roofline if he made the front end legit
