Naw, I guess that would just make too much sense.

Before that I hoped it was just mine and one day I'd get another. Now...no way...not until they're as reliable as lexus.

HOW???
i don't see a 180k car there. just like the other fella said, you know what you can BUILD for 180k and i promise with the right person doing it it will be bullet proof.
But if money is coming out your ****, its all good.

It sucks too, because I really love M/B's. Whenever I think of owning one, I think I must own a more reliable 'backup: car
.There were a couple reports of SL55 engines having massive failures due to electronic issues. Imagine a even MORE powerful engine!

On second thought, I think the sl was the first to start the high wave. The c-classe was the first affordable benz with high tech features. Either way, they all stink...in my opinion.
