Thanks Phil !
I can't detect a difference except that the MB has a longer roofline which extends out farther at the back.
The MB also has a slightly flatter windshield than the VW, so the VW actually seems to match the template even more closely towards the front of the car.
I don't trust my sloppy overlay though. I think some of what i am seeing is the smoke stream.
The point of all of this being to show just how closely that cars match the MB , yet the VW is a full 7 counts higher.
