Alpine's Million Dollar Demo Car, Pt. 1

Gary Bell over at Alpine complied some great videos showing the build of their million dollar demo car, the Imprint RLS. The RLS started out life as a standard Mercedes-Benz RL, but after 18 weeks in the hands of the Alpine crew, the car was transformed into one of the most amazing demo cars in mobile electronics history.

Below you'll find Part One in a four-part series as the guys at Alpine take you from "day one" to the final debut at the 2007 CES show in Las Vegas. Here you get to see the delivery of the stock RL and then play witness as the crew tears it down, removing every single exterior and interior panel to begin the prep and planning for this amazing demo. Stay tuned for episodes 2-4, coming soon!
