NO idea ... but, it looks like a Mercedes Benz of some type....

Maybe it's a one-of-one MB model?

Despite some far resemblance it isn't a Mercedes of any kind!

Well, it's obniously a Maserati 3500GT. But I have no idea what's so special about it ;)
It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

Yes it's a Maserati of course, but I have my doubts that it's still a 3500GT... ;)

I do not knock it, but I don't like it in Maseratis.
