The mercedes name has degraded to the point here where it is classed with the Hondas and Toyotas. Every 16 year old gang member and plumber has one.
I've been a merc fan my whole life up until about 2 years ago when the numbers on the road were staggering and our economy slumping. The Hyundai came out with a look-alike(Sonnata?). Then Kia followed suit(Sorrento?).
One guy went ape-**** when I told him,"Nice Hyundai!". And that was an honest mistake!
Most of us can easily afford one, but why waste money and overpay just for a name that means nothing now?
IMO, anyone who buys a merc now, made a mistake.
One of my machine operators had his s430 in my parking spot because it was wide and nicely positioned. I yelled out, "GET THAT POS OUT OF THERE!!!". I never would have said that 2-3 years ago.
