I think the biggest problem is with the dealer that you are dealing with. I live in Hong Kong, the dealer there is pretty good, they will do anything to satisfy their customers. But one thing that i notice about mb these few years are their dropping quality in their production. The last S500 we had was full of electronic problems. If you want to buy a S-class like car, then I would tell you to buy a 7-series or a A8. If you are looking for a exotic, SL wouldn't be one of my choice, it looks good, but the car have to go back to the shop all the time due to bad quality. One of the reason I think MB's quality is dropping is because they merged with Chrysler. When they first annouced they are merging with Chysler, I already have a very bad feeling.
