Kooshmeister ◊ 2008-02-27 02:52	It's a shame this is a movie-only mockup; it's my favorite car in the film.

Kooshmeister ◊ 2009-01-16 09:30	I think I may have finally found out that they were in fact attempting to replicate an actual 1936 Mercedes vehicle with this thing: The basic shape of it plus the Mercedes hood ornament are too much of a coincidence to overlook. It's even got the driver's-side-only windshield wiper! Although this body type appears to have been more used by Horch, it seems Mercedes did in fact make cars like this in the 30's, the Mercedes-Benz G5. So I am now listing it (and the others) as "Made-for-Movie Mercedes G5."
