I didn't say that. I only said it was a concern of the automotive journalists back then. I also said it depends on your definition of quality.

You did bring up a good point on cost. I looked back at the price of used MB's 20 years ago in an old copy of Hemmings. Now used MB's are very affordable. So, not just new MB's, but also used MB's are very affordable.
