Jay Leno is known for late night and his test driving excursions. In a new video called “The Fast and the Famous”, Jay creates his first car mini-film where he starts off by saying “Every major city must have a great race track hidden in it somewhere”. That somewhere is the streets of Los Angeles in a homage to Claud Lelouch’s 1970’s C’etait un Rendez-Vous (Rendezvous).

Old School of the Week: Mercedes Benz 190E 2.3-16

I’m not sure if this is typical of car guys but once or twice a week I come across cars from yesteryear that catch my eye and I would like to own. Can I necessarily afford them? Well, no, but it is fun to dream. I’ll spend time researching the car and, of course, examining whatever historic footage I can find on YouTube and looking at pictures.

Nurburgring2004-MB190EVO1

Well, this past week the car I’ve been looking at is the mid-1980’s Mercedes 190E 2.3-16. Many might not remember the 2.3-16 as it was superseded in time by the very car whose creation it spurred on: The BMW E30 M3. For over two decades the 2.3-16 has lived in the shadows of BMW as the original M3 went on in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s to dominate the European touring car arena. However, the 190E 2.3-16 is a car whose greatness should not be forgotten as it quietly finds its place as a modern classic.

I thought I had it all figured out about the Mercedes Benz line-up. The S-Class was to remain the flag-ship sedan that we could all recognize just like other luxury autos such as the BMW 7-series. Now Mercedes Benz has sent me for a loop after catching these spy shots of a new S-Class coupe. That’s almost a contradiction in terms don’t you think?

My advice to those who happen to own an exotic car and have at least one son: Do not let him drive your car! A 23 year old son of the owner of this 2008 Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR, valued at $700,000, was supposedly racing a Ferrari 599 GTB and ended up in a terrible accident. The question arises, is a Mercedes McLaren SLR a bit too much for a 23-year-old to drive? Well… it obviously was in the case of this accident that took place in Warsaw, Poland.
