Mercedes Arrow C1 : a “flatnose” version of the Gullwing, originally created for an American buyer and called the Arrow C1. The nose was stretched, akin to that of the Plymouth Superbird, although it also echoed the design of the Mercedes-Benz C111.

The new nose had flip-up headlights and the radiator was now mounted lying down. It also received a full body kit (partially made from kevlar) with shaved bumpers and faux air intakes ahead of the rear wheels. Watch the video from MercBenzKing.
