^^ I wonder why they do it. Even if Audi and BMW make sales gains and leave Merc in the dust for now, a Mercedes is a Mercedes. They invented the car and are in a position where they can emphasize quality and heritage without trying too hard on the design.

For what it's worth, i actually like all the new models.
