The Mercedes CL that put Rob Dyrdek on the C List
For anyone that is a fan of the “Rob & Big” MTV reality show you are sure to have seen the episode when Rob Dyrdek gets featured in a Wall Street Journal article on the front page for his tie to a previously owned car of his, a Mercedes CL 500.
Rob was upset because he was referred to as a “C” List celebrity after the owner used Rob’s named to help hype the car’s sale.
The article stats…
“Rob Dyrdek, a 32-year-old professional skateboarder and MTV reality-show star, got a recent reminder of how low he is on the celebrity totem pole.
Last month Mr. Dyrdek, who stars in the show “Rob and Big,” gave a friend permission to use his name to peddle Mr. Dyrdek’s old car, a 2000 Mercedes-Benz CL500, on eBay. The highest bid: $29,600, nearly $9,000 below the Kelley Blue Book value. “I ain’t Brad Pitt, and this ain’t Donald Trump’s CL,” Mr. Dyrdek concedes. His friend, who now owns the car, plans to relist it in the next few weeks.”
Rob also then takes some gruff from his mom who refers to him as a “loser”.
Either way, the car is still for sale and can be seen HERE.
how much for the car
I wouldn’t say that a Mercedes CL is an expensive one, at least I was expecting something more stylish from Dyrdek.
I can’t disagree with Ted, Rob Dyrdek is driving a simple Mercedes CL, shocked, I mean all other celebrities prefer more fancy auto like Bentley or Aston Martin.
Sh*t only a simple Mercedes CL in Switzerland even bums have this kind of cars, and after this he is called a celebrity.
Amazing, Rob Dyrdek is the first celebrity driving a simple car affordable for every American citizen

What’s the big deal about a Mercedes CL? Yes, it is a great car. But among celebrities, this car is like a Honda for us mere citizens. Now a Lamborghini would have caught me attention — and kept it — even more.
