 Bar Came back as a 2003 Freightliner, also the Sprinter wasn't sold as a Merc in the US until 2010

 It is a Dodge with a known fake grille.

Edit: Thanks. Forgot about Freightliner.

 These were CKD kits that were assembled here. The VINs were supplied by MB prior to import and assembly. One of those gray areas where the VIN says one location but the vehicle was assembled in another area. I forget how we handle this.

Quote Cargo versions of the Sprinter were manufactured in Düsseldorf, Germany, partially disassembled, and then shipped to a Freightliner factory in Gaffney, South Carolina, where they were reassembled. The cargo versions, classified as light trucks, are subject to the 25% chicken tax if imported as a complete unit, which is avoided by the disassembly and importation as a semi knock-down kit, with subsequent reassembly in the U.S. Passenger vans were not subject to the same tax classifications and were imported as an assembled unit through Mercedes-Benz in Jacksonville, Florida.
