You know how to contact me if you'd like some reader respect. “which has at least ONCE Mercedes exec sweating beneath the collar.”

For every desirable car like the E-Class, there's something out-and-out ridiculous like the R. Plus, they're racking up the worst build quality in the history of the marque. They're incredibly vulnerable in a down market. Perhaps this will force them to be responsive to their customers. The MB lineup is overpriced, over-engineered, and there’s too many different models.

All of their cars have lower EPA's than their rivals and it's not surprising given how heavy they are. The funny thing is they're supposed to be luxury, not even sport. Infiniti also has lower mileage compared to Lexus or Acura but at least they make up with the high HP. So when crap hits the fan, MB takes the hit.
