Tokyo Auto Salon 2011: The Timeless Art of Subtlety

diamondcar_01.jpg 

We can only hope these are real diamonds. I mean, what sort of hobo puts cubic zirconia on their V12 SL-Class? And if that isn't real polar bear upholstering the seats, well, I'm quite simply aghast. Aghast I tell you. What's next, 14K gold grilles rather than 18K? Now where did I put my monocle?

The great thing about this car -- it's actually showcasing the wheels. While they were at it, why not set off some thermite explosions, surround it with Hawaiian Tropic girls and blare John Phillip Sousa?

It's missing those car lashes. If it doesn't have those, I'm not buying it.

And my first thought upon seeing the photo was "they should have used different rims."

Now if they actually made some stylish wheels.

Those wheels are a blatant rip off of the Rims on the BMW efficentdyamics concept and the i8. Seriously, does nobody else see that?

and why pick a MB to show off poser BMW wheels?
