I am not questioning your knowledge at all. Now they only need nineteen more years and a third of a million miles on one from the rust belt to compare it to even a W123 that was engineered in the sixties.

I drove the Hyundai Centennial / Equus / Mitsubishi Dignity and was no less than impressed. Feel cheaper than a Lexus, but not by much!

He said that their current design is much like the first Japanese luxury cars of the 80s, where they stole design from the Germans.

Amen! Nothing but copies, some well executed, but still copies.

Anyone else getting Lincoln Town Car vibes?

"Mitsubishi Dignity" sounds like a mobility device that would be sold to the elderly. I think that's the first car I've heard of that I would avoid buying based on name alone.
