Driving on the autobaun was more fun than I thought! But very stressful. It only seems like tourists drive at 240km/hr while all the locals only drive 120-130km/hr. It's also nice to have a 6sp manual MB as a rental! :thumbsup: Also, those German's like to debage all the MBs and BMWs... it's kinda opposite from here where people put on badges that don't belong on their cars.
:dunno: Overall, it was a drool to drive on the autobaun and to see all the fine looking Germany CARS on the road! haha! :D

I swear if I ever lived in Europe, I'd buy a smart car... They're pretty handi little things. I heard they can even go on the autobaun cruising at 120km/hr!

Nice pics bro...

People get their cars debadged from the factory. In Germany, insurance is based on engine size.

I think that a lot of people don't want others to see that they are driving an S320 instead of an S600... hehehe

They put some really small ass motors in some big ass cars...

Ah..... I miss the autobanh.
