No matter how much you are paying now, you're still not getting much more than a gold-plated Accord or Camry, IMHO. 
Whaaaaa....???  I thought that's what Acuras and Lexii were. 
Have you 
driven an Accord or Camry as compared to the "equivalent" MB from the "sucker" era?  Let's say, even an old clunker like my 1992 300E?
If you have, and still feel that way, commit yourself to the nearest mental institution. Or at least move over to the slow lane.
