Oh and nice "M" side grill.
Did you mean the AM grill?

Why did they put the front of a Dodge truck on that Mercedes?

I prefer the older SLR looking one.

The details are different of course - heck, for all I know everything is fundamentally different - but my first thought was "Crossfire Convertible." Neither car does anything for me.

I like the interior, sort of reminds me of the SLS AMG, but the exterior is very blah. Can't really compare with the Z4.

Might be a stupid question (I'm awake with very little hours of sleep in the past 72 hours so I don't care), but where is the e-brake?

My guess is it's like the SL. A pedal on the floor to the left of the brake. Releases by pulling a handle on the dash.

Edit: The more I think about it, I could be wrong. If this is manual, it should have more than a floor pedal.

That's kind of what I was thinking. For a drop-top manual transmission sports car this should have a proper hand brake. But it doesn't look as though it's there.

^It's probably electric like the new Audi's.

See switch with red light to the left of shifter.
