When I heard that AMG Mercedes was collaborating with will.i.am, I thought to myself "have they seen his other cars?"  Apparently not.

Did they turn the Mercedes grille emblem into the face of a teddy bear?

"built by West Coast Customs, a purveyor of multiple over-the-top one-off automobiles—you might recognize the name from MTV's "Pimp My Ride.""  That kind of says it all right there.

70s mustang meets Bentley? 

The wheels are the biggest killer for me.

I don't even like the modern G-wagen face on actual G-wagens.

I don't understand why if the goal is to promote engineering as a career within certain socioeconomic classes, which I'm 100% for, that they don't have Lewis give an overview and introduction of what some of the F1 engineers do then discuss and show how that translates on track.

When I saw it, before I read, I thought it was a new interpretation of a bi turbo.  In that light, it looks okay.

That is the "Bear Witness."  I wish I were joking.

Kinda has a bit of a Jensen FF vibe on the front?  Its almost so-bad-its-good level.

It's...okay. I think what bothers me most about it is that weird bulbous hood inflating out of the otherwise angular front end. Was the hood alone designed by Chris Bangle by any chance?
