Yeah it drives me nuts as well.

Cars just get beat to hell, just live with it until you can't stand it then have it painted. Having the clear bra put on the front seems to help.


In about 2000 MB had paint issues for awhile since new European environmental regulations changed the type of paint they could use. But it affected any car built in Europe not just MB. I still remember my friend bought a new S430 in 2000 and *****ed to the dealer 6 months later because the paint was chipping like crazy. They sent out a MB zone rep and fixed it.

OTOH the latest MB paint seems to be tough as nails.
