An M3 hasn't been $95k for like 5 years now

He's only off by $75k

I am still stuck in the times when a wicked vehicle could be had for $50k.

I am so out of touch with the market, I couldn't fathom spending $100k for a daily driver.
That CLE coupe looks great though.

You'll feel better once you figure out you can't get much for $50K these day from mainstream dealers.

Starts at just under $100k with GST.

Ironically probably the one to get.

But I somehow doubt anyone is driving one off the lot with a check that doesn’t start with a 1…

Will there be an E53 wagon that makes it to Canada?

Current E53 never made it here unless I'm wrong. So I doubt new one will either.

E63 is only game if you are ready to drop $200K on one.

[riander5]

I wonder if the new E63 will have 1000hp and weigh 7000 lbs

[killramos]

And cost as much as a G wagon by Mercedes latest trends.

And still not get a V8

There was 1 year with E53 wagon here. Pre facelift. Maybe just 1 model year. It was made unavailable after the facelift, and the 450 was only available in the all terrain version. I didn’t order the e53 and went with the e400 because the jump seats were only available in non AMGs.

This.

Does MB just think their customers are retarded now? Is that their entire marketing plan?

[bjstare]

$25k to make your SUV completely invisible seems like pretty good bang for your buck to me

[ExtraSlow]

If you buy an ugly car, may as well be hard to see.

Nice cars should not be black.

Ugly cars should be black.

It is thus.

They're working hard to make the G63 feel like a great deal

[rage2]

Mercedes (along with everyone else) has been using premium looking cheap plastic forever. It’s light, looks kinda expensive, but yea it’ll sound like plastic when pushing on it.

That SL armrest moving that much tho does seem shitty haha. Just tried my car there’s very little movement. I mean it can’t be solidly stiff, but the SL at 3 min mark does seem extreme.

[Buster]

This is the opposite of what they should be doing. The entire idea of a premium car is basically being fundamentally attacked by EV tech. The only opportunity for the luxury makers to stay relevant is for them to build a luxury car. It used to be premium cars were sold on:

- build quality (look and feel not necessarily reliability)
- design
- performance

Build quality is being commoditized (as we saw), performance is being commoditized. So all we have left with is design? And people are going to pay a $100k premium for a design and a brand? They won't, as MB has seen. Not to mention the "design" direction of the german premium brands is fucking awful across the board.
