Those 2 cars look very similar. A car guy would never confuse them but when you have a unique looking car (such as a crossfire) with a Bentley badge, there will be people out there that would think it was some type of Bentley model that they never heard of.

On the other hand you have your mercedes. Your mercedes is clearly a mercedes. You can see your car a quarter mile away and know it was a mercedes. If you put a Toyota badge on your car the average joe that knows nothing about cars would know your car is a mercedes. It has all the typical Mercedes lines on the body of the car.

So it all goes back to the fact that crossfires are unique with a unique style that could resemble an exotic car such as a Bentley. Everyone else is driving a jellybean car and they all look the same. Heck, even with a chrysler logo on my car I still have people asking "what kind of car is that?".

Thanks for the pictures and thanks for proving my point. I see about 5 similarities bewteen the 2 cars all the way down to the style of the rims.
