...In looking through my various galleries, I realized how difficult it is to choose.

But, being the kind of Manly Man I am with Manly Ways and Manly Plans, difficult is always a challenge...  thus, I offer for your enjoyment:



...I dare you, each and every ONE of you, to pick your favorite shot of a 116 and post it here.

My favorite shot of a 116... this is what inspired me to AMGify my 116:)

13B

450SEL 6.9 #5440 = V MB 690 , 450SE # 43094 = 02010 H , 190E/turbo # 31548 = AOH 68K

One photo came straight to mind.  It has to be Nutz's 116chick  :o 8)




But if we're talking just w116's, This shot below was used for early badge sketches.  I just love the stance, the colour, the beefed up yet elegant look.  I haven't really taken any favourite shots of my car. 

1973 350SE, my first & fave

This is on another thread here, but it's still one of the most beautiful pics I've seen

"You've bought another bloody car?!? We should have you committed!" he shrieked, storming out of the room

Apart from that Magnificent Silver AMG photo above ( ;)) I have always loved this car below.  If I own another 6.9 it will be in this deep dark blue with a light coloured interior.  (Silver with Black was very cool though  ;))






And isnt it interesting how many of us like the cars with the AMG front spoiler?  Best thing I ever did to mine!

sigh....sitting back contemplating the next purchase..!

This is probably a bit boring by comparison, but this was an exceptional example from DC - taken at Techno Classica 2005. I will adhere to the rules and only post ONE photo !

I'm with Grant on this one.

Those look like the fabled 15" bundts on the green car.  Wow.

Actually, I need to revise my choice (cheater!!!)... as someone should cast a vote for those oh-so-burly Macho Disco American bumpers!
