They are not "normal" cars in most of the rest of the world. They have always been way above "normal". What American's don't seem to realise is that the reason there are so many lower spec Mercedes in other countries that don't show up in the US is not because that's what the rest of the world wants, it's because in those other countries there are a large number of horrble little pieces of crap that you'll mercifully never see in the US that are so far below what you are used to here that a base spec MB 200 with no luxuries is still considered an upmarket luxury vehicle.
