Stuttgart: MBmuseum architecture pics; ML500, SL500

[stmoritzer]

These pics are from Stuttgart,
arriving there, it was too late for visiting the museum, so I checked out the area including the Stadium nearby.
The Museum looks impressive, IMO all german manufacturers are competing in building a new museum ( the new Porsche one will open 07)

ML500 with pimp-rims, IMO these kind of light-weight rims don't fit on SUV's

The building is indeed :shock:

[harryo2b]

Well Porsche sure as hell needs to build a stand alone museum as the current setup only allows for about 15 cars and you would have to visit often just to see the rotation of the inventory. With the new Porsche museum they should have around 70 cars on display at a time out of about 400 kept in the Porsche storage area.

The MB is impressive indeed and the architecture is surely representative of MB maybe almost McLaren like?!

i like the ml but with these rims i would lower it, then i would look perfect.

[dingo]

Awesome building!! :shock: I'm a sucker for black wheels (my car should make that obvious :P ) so I reckon that ML looks hot! :D

[stmoritzer]

^
to lower it makes it for sure better, but the color is not my main point :wink:

IMO these lightweight-"structure" rims look fragile under the massive SUV's :?

[yeckmohr]

Nice pics.
I live 20km away from the museum, i wasn' there yet, because
on the weekends and during the FIFA Championchips you had to wait 2 hours or longer to get in.
Maybe in the next weeks i will go there.
