Is it me or does this engine bay look like a hackjob?....c'mon, they could have atleast made it look more MB standard without the cheap look-a-like ractive air canisters and home depot air ducts.

The whole B55 thing isn't really that amazing especially knowing that it's a mercedes it probably won't be more reliable than what custom hot rodders have been doing with american econoboxes for years. | Please excuse my noobness-is the B class very different from the A class thats everywhere in Vancouver? I don't think I've ever seen a B class in locally?

If this is what you're thinking of, the seating position/space is quite similar but you have 2 rows of seats in the B instead of 1 in the Smart.

I always thought this was just a project built by some mercedes engineers in training. Not a concept or an intended production vehicle, more like a course term project?
