Ingo ◊ 2012-04-07 05:00	Sorry, but it's just the logo. The grille itself is not shaped like that.
Milesprower1100 ◊ 2012-05-06 05:36	Well it's a huge logo so i figured it was shaped that way

Lateef ◊ 2026-02-07 09:44	Definitely not a 15 Six.
Gamer ◊ 2026-02-07 10:19	Well yes, I know you might be thinking of the later one with the massive horn grille and bladed bumpers, but the earlier 15 Six was more austere: Link to "live.staticflickr.com"
Lateef ◊ 2026-02-07 10:53	I'm referring to the fact that it's too small for a 15 Six. The rear portion of the car should be significantly bigger. I also fail to see how the grille badge should be that of a 15 Six. Looks like the later winged badge of the 11 BL to me.
