the fuck are you talking about?
the current gen of the big mercedes models is a fucking misdesigned joke
from the rear all three look like a shitty C-Class Coupé
worst is the S-Class.
have you ever even seen the car in real life?
it's a fucking joke compared to it's predescessor(s).

saged and reported, go and die in a fire.

Do you need the increased ride height? No? Go for an E-Class
Do you need AWD? Yes? Go for an E-Class with 4Matic

The coupe, in my opinion, looks horrible, while the standard GLE is passable
>>
>>14273924
I need the increased ride height, thats why I want a SUV...

I already own a sedan and a coupe. The reason why I am getting the SUV is because my Honda Pilot 04 is getting too old and has a high mileage already.

>>14273951
Considered something like the Mazda CX-5? The Merc will do just about everything better, but the CX-5 is a damned great crossover for way less

It's a disgusting car driven by disgusting people. Are you a disgusting person? No, of course you aren't. So buy something else.
>>
>>14273992
Aight

As long as you're looking around and trying out different things so you won't get stuck with a car you don't really need/doesn't live up to the expectations. The normal GLE (stay away from the coupe) is perhaps the best in its class, and I can see how its worth if if you actually utilize the different functions and luxuries it has to offer. I've known quite a few people who have bought cars with loads of extra equipment they never use. They pay top dollar for equipment like heated seats, heated steering wheel, upgraded stereo (while playing YouTube-ripped music over the Bluetooth), 4WD without knowing the difference between the FWD-setting and the 4WD-lock
>>
>>14274001
>Mercedes
>disgusting
literally two words that don't belong together even if you're buying an A-Class
>>
>>14274082
Thanks for your replies, I am actually looking at multiple alternatives.

I might settle down with a Porsche Macan Turbo that is loaded with options that I would use (fuck the heated seats, I hate them).

Yeah, you sound like a man that is capable of making decisions. Thus you have the money to buy the car.
Sure thing pally.

aka
We don't know how to give potential new customers incentives not to buy slightly used, yet several 10K$ cheaper models.

That's right girls. Buying a new mercedes you just buy warmed up, old shit. They didn't have much newer stuff and when, then they only appear to be innovative.
All these dogshit companies care about is to suck their investors cock and milk the sheep that buy them new.
Go ahead, buy it and finance the r&d for stuff like that:

And then there's that cheap chinese tablet, just because mercedes decided "hey lets save some money on the instruments, we can market that as innovative to those sheep"

This thing ruins everything, it does not fit in, not a little bit. No i'm not turbo autistic, i see things from a person that pays 80K$+ for a car and demands not to look at that samsung galaxy tab bs all day.

You must have never driven an S Class, if you've ever drove the new S550 4MATIC, it's fucking incredible, for such a gargantuan car, it grips like a motherfucker and it launches insanely fast.

>ITT people who have never driven a Benz
>>
>>14277953
Coming from an S class owner I would agree that when I got it (2014) it was the best full sized luxury sedan on the market.

But due to Mercedes being a shit company to deal with (I had to wait 2 months for a replacement wheel because they couldn't source it) I'm moving to the 7 series soon.
>>
>>14272490
Note to self. Never buy a mercedes.

The wagon models fix it up a bit but still...the sedans should look nice
