I'd like to see this, and other recent ICM auto kits, released in 1/24 as was the G4. These kits fill a niche in both scales.

Hi, Josef! Darren showed this ICM Mercedes Benz typ 320 W-142 a week or two ago with other new ICM releases, and back then, I said nearly the same thing you say here! We're thinking along the same lines!
I LIKE THIS CAR!!! It reminds me of an American "Gangster Car"!!!
I also mentioned that the 320 was a definite step up from the 170 for German Officers. Mine will be painted in either Semi-Glossy, FELDGRAU (actually a bit more glossy than "semi-flat), Semi-Flat PANZERGRAU, (a bit more flat than the aforementioned Semi-glossy FELDGRAU), or Glossy SCHWARZ!!! Oooh- A BLACK GESTAPO Car!!! German Officers in Leather Coats can easily be converted into "GESTAPO-Types".
I just might build all three!
For those that are interested, ICM will also be releasing an "Early" SU-122, with Interior...
