That's supposed to be a Mercedes. Wow, I'd have guessed some kind of boring GM or Japanese car, ugly when stock and the Mustang clip doesn't make it any better.

i thought it was a focus or fusion, the side mirror does look mercedes but i'd never guessed by the rest of the side, it just doesn't look like a mercedes, looks like they did a pretty good job, for the most part.

I thought it was photoshop. To me, it looked like there was too much distance from the base of the windshield to the nose. It looked out of porportion. At least that is what I was thinking when I first saw it.

This is/was a nicely restored 64 F85 sedan that is now being used as a winter car/daily driver.

Our 1965 Skylark 4 door sedan is an original Delaware car and it somehow survived.

Hard to tell from here, but if they did a better job with the upper rear corner of the window/door, it might not look too bad...
