Recall the 1983 Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Ralph Bellamy, and Don Ameche movie "Trading Places" and the cool Mercedes Limo?

Looks like a slicked-up 4 door Lincoln MK VIII.

"A 4.0-liter V-8 rated at 496 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque sends power to the wheels via a nine-speed automatic transmission..... Among the interior luxuries are active multi-contour seats, an MBUX rear-seat entertainment system with dual 11.6-inch screens, powered rear sun blinds, electrically adjustable seats, and Maybach-exclusive leather upholstery.
If all of that doesn't relax you enough, a rear Energizing Comfort Package, an Air Balance Package with ionization and active fragrance, and climate-controlled seats amplify the VIP experience even further."

Jack that thing up, put some 37" Thornbirds under there and make the trunk into a beer cooler. Head for the tractor pulls.

That looks like a 1968 600. Definitely not an '83.

"A 4.0-liter V-8 rated at 496 horsepower .." The range topping 650 is a T/T V12 - 621 HP.

Looks like a really nice luxury car, With RR making a lot of noise and having a lot of buyers, I think Mercedes may be able to match up t the RR wraith.
