Disappointed. Exterior and interior quality just isn't up to Merc standards. Seriously underpowered engine. Very underwhelming car. I'm sure the AMG 45 version is a completely different car but the standard model is really a let down, I wanted to love it.

Did you drive it in sports mode? In normal drive mode all of these cars are geared for gas saving and they are just dogs. But once you put them in a sports mode they become a whole different animal. I mean that car puts out 258 ft pounds of torque at 1250rpm and that's a lot of zip. For example Infiniti G37 has 269 ft pound tq at 5200 rpm. That means you have to rev the shit out of it to make it move. In fact infinit puts out it's peak 328hp at 7000rpm which pretty much means you'll never use it. Yes during the test drive you gonna gun the shit out of it it's gonna feel very fast but once you buy that car and start driving in the city it's not gonna feel the same. It has the same engine as your old Nissan Z.Originally posted by THE BOUNCER View PostDisappointed. Exterior and interior quality just isn't up to Merc standards. Seriously underpowered engine.
