I would only buy amg for Mercedes. Overall I don't really like MB and really dislike the model in your op.

It's a nice car I'm just not passionate about it like I would be other cars.


I would rather own vintage American muscle to tell you the truth.

Who has her number please . . . ?

My car is realy dirty . . .

I got a Vito in my company . . . my worst ever car I owned . . . when you keep looking for 5 minutes at it . . . you see it rusting . . .

Hola . . . . Made in Spain . . . .

But I just went to the Brussels car fair and I saw the new GL . . .

Mmmmmmmmm a SUV with the S class luxury . . .

And now I am really thinking about it . . . but that's for when I am relocated in Cal . . . .

Like the girl and that model doesn't seem bad. I am not a huge fan of a lot of what MB offers, but I would drive that.

The car looks like that low-end Jaguar they came out with about 10 years ago.

Kate on the other hand looks great!

Oh the baby XJ; I still remember that one. Unfortunately now that got me thinking of the ugly S-type too.

Wow MB lost their design identity after so many years. Btw do they pair the spokesperson they chose to match the attractiveness of the car? The car is butt ugly!
