It may be just me but can somebody tell me if they are experienced this issues.
1) The windows, rear / front, side view mirrors are a mediocre quality compare to MB and BMW. For example, after washing the car the windows develop a haze withing hrs.
2) The headlight covers pitted withing 3,000 miles diving in Southern Cal.
3) Front and rear brake pads make noise at 3000 miles. Front pads were replaced and just started to make noise again.

2) Don't drive behind those gravel trucks
3) That is normal for high-performance brakes. Mine squeek at a very low speed only once in awhile and I've got only 4500 miles.
If you are unhappy with the ISF, just switch to the MB C63 AMG or BMW M3. Find out how crappy of cars they are down the road and you will be begging to get your ISF back. Mercedes Benz vehicles are quick but handle horribly and are very unreliable. BMW's handle probably the best other than Audi's, but are still unreliable when you get up in the miles. You have to pick your battles, but I'll take a little less quality in some cosmetic areas to keep my engine, etc in a very reliable state.

This b*tch clearly doesn't know how either to clean a car or he's just a Benz fanboy, nothing wrong with that I have been surrounded with Lexus and MB my whole life in my immediate family and extended. As proof I drive my F twice a month to LA and back to the Bay Area on the I-5(majority of trip) going 85+ toof and my headlights aren't pitted at all, same with my '10 RX350 and my moms '11 LS460L. As for MB my dads '10 G55 is actually pitted and it only has 13,000 on the clock but I gotta admit the thing is a frickin square...
