I just can't get behind any design that looks like a tablet that could break off.
The 2022 EQS.....now THAT is something I would drive.. fully digital dash door to door....but not for 100k.
I also think Mercedes now has a better windshield HUD than BMW too....i just can't get past that tablet look.
Oh that MB is so old that the only tablet in it is when I carry my iPad with me. And the only time I ever deal with a new MB is when I've got a loaner while it spends its annual week in the shop due to being an over engineered pos.
It's 18 years old, still powerful and fast...it will hold its w/newer cars and only when the Mustangs went to the a10 in 2018 did they become faster, still solid... the engine and trans are bulletproof, but is constantly in need of something electrical that needs to come from Germany, or of a hydraulic shock at at least one corner.
My BIL is a BMW guy and I would really like a 440i GS w/xdrive for a dd someday.
