Our Associate Publisher's New Car

This is A.C.'s new car. Ain't it a cool Mercedes station wagon?
It's the latest model released here in 1983.


Note the high-tech accessories like the oversized mobile phone antenna, for when your friend just have to call you and scream, "Where the beef?!"
Ah, that ad is just so popular these days.

The custom paint job gives her car the stylish "acid wash" look.
It's not just for denim!


Her fancy headlights are trimmed in complementary shades of green goo. Someone's been watching an awful lot of "You Can't Do That on Television!" Cable is so high-class. All the cool kids have it!

Check out the giant trailer hitch. Being a Kansas girl, she must use it to transport all the... wheat?

And, finally, as you see in the video below, the car comes with a great sound system that even Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Not seen in the video, her rockin' high-fi tape deck.

  1. Oh Come On Eileen, you know you're just Puttin' on the Ritz. Everyone knows we just got over the 1982 recession. Sometimes you just have to do the Safety Dance and buy what you can afford. If Sweet Dreams Are Made of This, then I don't ever want to wake up.

  2. Whatever, you guys are just jealous of my SWEET $300 Craigslist boat-hauling score. Geesh- I drive it ONE DAY to get the title crap handled... You guys would feel really bad if this was my "real" car. If you are nice I will let you ride in the rear facing seat in the back. And that is not ANY tape player... it is an Alpine pullout, You know you want one. Smooches.
