1983 MERCEDES BENZ 500 SEC-AMG

I don't know where these guys are getting their prices. Car looks nice but ridiculous price, interior needs work. Even if car was a genuine AMG, way too much, he's lucky if he gets half that. What do you guys think, not too far from where I live.

Gold paint dude. Some Arab is going to see it and just have to have it.

Lets keep racist or race related comments out of the forum please.

Would go well as a brother to that other overpriced gold AMG that's been for sale in Chicago for a million years.

I just see a car with some extra plastic, degraded by wheel arche chrome and wrong chromed rims. Whats the reason for those cheap seat covers? Are they there to protect the leather or to cover the rotten seat?

You can get hundreds of them - I wouldn´t even pay a fift of the asking price.

I've seen this car on the L.A craigslist for what may already be a year now, he's never going to get that price, maybe half... if he's very lucky.

 

[oldmako]

I think its a tad ugly. But lets all hope he gets his asking price!

 

[Luke Colorado]

Exactly!

Some people are offended by being called a "racist." That seems not to deter some of these folks who toss the word around as though everyone who uses the word "Arab" or "Black" or "illegal alien" in a sentence, has got a white hooded sheet in the closet and a burning cross in the yard. Screw that. Arabs jump for gold cars. Everyone knows that.

Jews have all the money, Black people can't swim, Orientals can't drive, Hispanics eat chicken and rice all the time, American Indians are drunks and White dudes have little dicks....

Are we done stereotyping now? :surrender:

If you think the shock value of your posting will undo a cultural characteristic that most everyone thinks, forget it. I didn't create the stereotypes. They exist, and if I feel like making an observation which includes drawing attention to such stereotypes, I'll do it.

FYI: Orientals is no longer an acceptable term. I think its actually beans and rice that make up a significant part of the Hispanic diet. And, yes, many Native Americans are drunks. Characterized by as much as 70 times the general population in some metrics. But, please discontinue the use the insensitive term "American Indians." It is said that they find it quite offensive.

Thereby helpfully extending the sale-by date of such stereotyping.

Personally I don't care what your personal views on races or ethnicity are -I'm assuming you don't care about mine either- but the fact remains this is an international site and as far as I know several 'Arabs' participate.

Not long ago there was a thread about Mexicans and illegals here and some idiotic racists comments were made. I'm Hispanic, and that sort of crap pisses the shit out of me, call me crazy. And PC my ass, it's called common courtesy and respect for others.

We're here to talk about cars. Let's keep it that way.

The grievous offense that caused you to post your extremely crude remarks above, and for your friend above to call a person he knows nothing about a racist, was all of the fact that an Arab might be interested in a gold car with some glitz on it. Hold the presses, is that a surprise? If we have any Arabs here, I'll be happy to face them with that observation.

So, stop trying to control others' speech and keep your own tongue in check.
