Finally, "Dancing with the Stars" winners Emmitt Smith and Cheryl Burke were on hand to represent
the power and grace of the Mercedes-Benz Concept Ocean Drive. This concept vehicle is essentially a softtop convertible version of the four-door, 12-cylinder S600 sedan, but features a one-off body, a larger grille, two-tone paint, LED head- and taillamps, and unique 21-inch wheels. Inside, Mercedes added its AIRSCARF neck-level heating system, as well as bird's eye maple trim, woven "ivory" fabric, video screens in the backs of the front headrests, and a champagne compartment between the seats. A four-door convertible hasn't been available in the United States since the 1967 Lincoln Continental and Mercedes hasn't made one since the 1962 300d, but DaimlerChrysler's Chairman of the Board of Management Dieter Zetsche said his company was testing the waters with this concept and a strong response could make it a reality.
