Haha, love the naked prototype, looks like something I cobbled together with LEGO Technic in 7th grade! 
Those look like Porsche wheels, though...
And that photoshop image is beyond vomitous.

Ten bucks says it's got a quad turbocharged V12.

If Mercedes is shooting for a 150K EURO baby McLaren, I highly doubt it.

A bit ... far fetched. It's like saying a skeleton you dig up looking like Elisha Cuthbert. It doesn't.

I want that car! Just the frame with the lights how it is. If I have to buy this car and strip it out, I will! I want my own Merc-McLaren Atom!

the car itself looks to be quite small, maybe along the lines of Gallardo size. Im pretty curious about how Benz will manage to ruin this

Ambitious but rubbish!
LOL I wish! They'll probably use the 6.2L V8 as a base...

Screw the body - I'll take the naked version and scare the hell out of the track-day crowd.

Look closer - this thing has a turbocharged V12 engine.
Also, is it just me, or does it look like it has AWD as well?

I gotta hand it to you - I'm can't just look at an engine and tell exactly what it is like that.
How can you tell it's AWD?
