I wish it would kick some a$$. I would love to own another Mercedes, they just won't make me a car. I'm sick and tired of reading the same reviews of mercedes vs. audi vs. bmw. They're all their own separate car, Audi owns AWD, Mercedes is luxury, BMW is sport. And thats it. Theres no competition, everyones comofortable, no toes getting stepped on. And god forbid Alfa Romeo ever gets their act together. If they can get their lineup RWD with AWD capabilities, lose some weight, and sell it here, they'll gobble Audi and BMW with ease, and probably reel in some Mercedes crowd.
