Photos of 6 Exotic Cars Going Up In Flames
Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is not one wreck but 6! A car carrier in Bangkok, Thailand was transporting a Ferrari, Lamborghini, 2 Bentleys, Mercedes and a BMW. One of the exotics caught fire while on the transporter (we're guessing the Lamborghini because they seem to spontaneously combust fairly frequently.) The fire spread to other cars while the truck was moving!
Thanks as always the the guys at WreckedExotics.com for our weekly dose of automotive mayhem!

Mercedes Benz Gullwing Flies into Lake!
Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day happened in Liupanshui, China. The car is (was) a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing. The owner lost control and flipped the car into a pond. Amazingly, he survived without any significant injuries. The megabucks car was not so lucky.
Thanks to WreckedExotics.com for the photos and alerting us, as always, to the destruction of another exotic car.

1989 Mercedes Color Restoration
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1989 Mercedes 190e. This car came into our lot with a mismatched fender, instead of matching just the fender, the owner decided to refinish the entire car black, and lose the grey "Two Tone", with our Enamel paint package and had this classic Mercedes shining like new again!

The Price of Swagger: 2011 Maybach "Custom Convertible" by Jay-Z and Kanye West
Uhh. . . not sure what to say about this. . . most people have never heard of Maybach (Mercedes Benz's super-ultra luxury division.) Fewer have ever seen one. The "cheap" version retails for $375,000 USD. If you are interested, the Jay-Z/Kanye West Custom Maybach in this video will be auctioned with proceeds going to relief for the East African Drought Disaster. Hopefully it brings a lot of money but we think you may be able to own a new Maybach for a fraction of the original cost.

Built Like a Tank but Shouldn't Look Like One
Today's Mercedes is one of the huge old built-like-a-tank S-Class models with a diesel engine that will run forever. The camouflage paint scheme is purely by accident. The interior was in great shape and the engine was strong and ran like new. But this was a car seriously in need of a paint job. Almost Everything sanded off all the old, failed paint and got the surface smooth then we applied a new coat of primer/sealer before repainting the car.
