how is it a glorified toyota? it is a toyota, with switched emblems and converted steering positions.
and mb is well over rated and just a name. over here there is a large population of vietnamese, and thats what most of them all care about...is just the name. its a social status, no one cares how much of a piece of **** car MB is, or how over priced it is... all they care is that it is the american dream to own a vehicle that places you in the highest class according to the vietnamese community.
...yes, MB is a piece of **** with no class...luxury maybe, but no class. there is a huge difference.

Almost everyone here have owned other brands before getting tired of the unreliabilty.
Just paid $1535 the past weekend for alignment, airbag sensor came on, check engine, again-->air injector components
, oil change and got a POS chevy cobalt loaner b/c I didn't buy it that dealership
No offense but if you mention "lexus" on mbworld, you'll get chastised
I'm there for the informations and contributions regarding my S500.
No thanks, after they totally ripped off the 7 series interior. Of all the bmw's interior, I like the 7. And by the way, I pushed my brother in law in getting a slightly used cpo 7 series over a brand new 5 series.
Sorry to pick out your post
I'm still a sucker for the old (w220) S55/CL55 AMG-some day!
If anyone wants a ride in the w220 S class, let me know.
Believe me, it's no better than the LS.
True. However, I would repace the MB500 (E or S) the very least with the sport package like what KillerGS4 has.
The ABC suspension on the AMG is wonderful but expensive to repair, just like the UL air suspension.
I have never driven any M cars, but a stock 5 and 7 is verry impressive.
But regarding the original questions, it's mainly the little annoying electrical things. No problems with their engine/transmission. Just make sure you get extennnnnnnnnded warranties
Go to mbworld.org and there's a list of tsb on the top of each models.
