I never had the urge to own a Mercedes at any price. I'm not a fan of German cars.

I stick with the Japanese cars; Honda, Toyota, Subaru, etc. Just drive them and change the oil. Add gas once in a while.

Easy to maintain and inexpensive to operate. We taught them well after WWII.

The Mercedes 600 is elegant, the 190D—back in its day—was a solid buy.

Some of the SE and SL models—and 1950s convertibles have me pining for one.

But the best-handling Mercedes should get everyone's attention!
