It is beautiful but its also a 2 door. If it were a four door I wouldnt find it so beautiful but I dunno these things have a way of growing on me. When I had my aero I hated the box and thought it was just another ugly old car (which it is absolutely not) whereas I now have a box and dont really care for the aeros. Ive come to realize the box has alot of class the aero has none. But then if I would've ended up with a pre 88 I might be sitting here saying I didnt like the 88-91. I just dont know I have a strange way of thinking that makes perfect sense to me, but not so much sense to others. Note I had a 95 aero I dont think I could ever learn to like the 92-94 front end, and I feel that 03-11 were the best post box era mercs made.Originally posted by marquisman View PostComment
