Who says Mercedes are the perfect car?
« on: September 11, 2021, 03:39:41 PM »


Rust in "pieces."  I call it automotive acne.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

98SVT - was 06GT

Maybe in the 50s and 60s but no more. When they owned Chrysler they saw what a POS the Americans would buy and have worked hard to build cheap cars ever since while making ads that hype their cars as worth the premium price.

Agreed.  Carl Benz rolling over in his grave.  They sure have come a long way from the 300sl gullwing now haven't they.

Their Vans rust beyond belief
 I see them all the time with rust pouring out of the seams

What a poor way to advertise your quality.

As stated above. They haven’t been too shelf in many years

Read up on the dissolving wiring harnesses they had a while back

Might be the dodge assembly line they went down ml series was built in usa
Some where some one is driving their collector car for the last time but they don't know it . Drive your car every time like it could be the last memory of it .
