Chris, Is there any kind of a link to this for those of us who don't get the STAR? Thanks.

Pope Paul VI's awesome 600 Laundalet steals the show, of course and it now resides at the museum in Untertürkheim. Can't wait to see it in September. There is a great pic of Paul VI in a motorcade...his 600 followed by about 15 identical MB's - extremely cool picture. All technical specs of the cars in a table and the 460 Nürburg (1st given to Pope Pius XI) is the centerfold this month. Just before his election as Pope, Cardinal Ratzinger seemed to prefer a W126. :-) Read in a German Catholic newspaper that MB Italia recently donated a very nice Feuerzeug (fire truck) to the Vatican Fire Department. Had a nice pic of it too. Cool.
