I would do everything Momentum would do but I would also produce the w126 again for 1 yr at least and make it a collectors edition or something and the same with my favourite....W107.

YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO HATE WHAT I HAVE TO SAY

I think Chrysler is one of the best things Mercedes ever did, HOWEVER they are managing the situation totally wrong!

1. Rather than trying to move the Mercedes Vehicles down market by introducing the C-Coupe and cheapening their own products they should use the Chrysler Division to take over that market.

2. MB should certainly go back to their cost be damned methods of engineering and materials.

3. Chrysler vehicles should use the Mercedes Platforms for their larger and midsize vehicles for several reasons. A) because it will improve the Chrysler lineup, B) It will help spread the development cost across both companies, C) It will prevent Mercedes prices from going through the roof.

4. This one is related three. Daimler Chrysler should insure that the only things being shared between Mercedes and Chrysler is their platforms. No interior parts, exterior parts should be shared. I think the older Mercedes engines should be used in the Chryslers while the new ones are used only for Mercedes. (Again this will help dissipate development costs)

5. Build a specialty car every 10 years!

6. Definitely Make AMG more exclusive and do more than just add front rear bumper and side skirts to the body!
