It is fine to talk about 37k starting model, but at the same time they should mention that the cars they drove were $59k.
No different than any other MB. My build was $51K

I doubt MSRP for these things matter much, as long as it leases well, it will sell.

LOL... you're right except for every review i've seen of it which are all glowing.

it's boxy for passenger/cargo efficiency in a small package. but it has a long wheelbase for a fwd-based cuv so rides well.

The name Mercedes will be the only reason people will plop down money.
riiight, name another cuv that offers adaptive shocks option, has the duel 12" screen with all the mbux features, and an overall interior quality like this one.

Saw the new GLB at MB today.

It is crazy to think Mercedes makes this vehicle. A different world we live in.

I take it your thoughts were similar to my thoughts about the GLA?

I get why they did it. Just doesn’t seem like a luxury vehicle. No tinted windows either. . (I did not quite sit in it).

Yep, same experience I had with the GLA.
