I raced a 00 audi a8 the other night, I thought I was going to lose, but was hoping that the quattro would slow it down enough. I beat him, we got up to 60 and I had a car length ahead of him. it was nice..

I don't think that Benz are that bad...
Had a 98 SLK230K, was alright til I got crashed into....
Dad has a 2000 CLK430, minor issues but over all very good.
Mom has a 2004 SL500...drove that for about two months, and I got to tell ya, this thing is just smokin fast and with 20k miles, no issues.
And about smoking an A8, WOW! Got my A$$ handed to me when I raced my brothers A8L.

damn that sux for him. id be pissed and get a lemon buy back.
On another note. Im on my second MB and have ordered the new ML. my current ML has given me 1 problem, a broken window switch fixed under warranty. So i think its a gross generalization that all MB's cause problems, cuz my father has yet to have a problem with his CL65 and had none with his S55.. Mb's not that bad to be honest. Also the dealer has treated me extremely well. Maybe im just lucky?

Isn't the C still manufactured in Germany?
I mean, if you're going to buy a maintenance nightmare, at least drive one of the cars with the least history. The ML sucks hard. Even the '06.
