Unhappy mercedes has lost their simplicity

My '84 300SD has far fewer features than my '02 Golf TDI. There are no computers, cupholders, stability controls, ABS, SRS, or any other acronyms on this car and that's the way I like it. I love the Teutonic, overly-engineered simplicity of old German automobiles that were built to last. I'd rather have a no BS 400,000 mile car than one that goes back to the dealer in the first six months because the tire inflation sensor is on the fritz. Mercedes should stick to what they know and go back to the days of simple quality rather than try to compete with the Japanese gadget mobiles.
