During the late 1990s, Mercedes used various decorations where the vision of the vehicle's engine area was simulated to promote the sale of its original spare parts, perhaps seeking to counteract the famous BMW "x-ray" decorations. That is something that we cannot confirm, but we can say that the blue decoration with its 5-liter V8 engine visible as if the rear hood had exploded is simply spectacular.
