Today in vehicles with diplomatic plates on 6th Street



Thanks to Salim for this photo between Avenue A and Avenue B.

Updated: Thanks to the commenter — this is the Mercedes G63 6×6 AMG featuring six-wheel drive running on 5.5L, 536-hp, 561-lb-ft twin-turbo DOHC 32-valve V-8 AMG engine. The vehicle has five electronic differential locks, which can deliver 100% lockup of all six wheels, operated by three switches on the dashboard. (I cut-n-paste that from Wikipedia!)

      Luckily the city provides free parking so that people who cannot afford to park in a garage will be able to store their cars
