 I bought this car brand new back in '04, and I'm compelled to write a review because this car("Mercedes") only caused me headaches and hole in my pocket. Even though I took care of this car, it has a lot of problems, I remembered in the second year(still covered by warranty), I had to fix the sunroof twice, then from there on cd broke, lots of things broke, the quality is very bad. The cost to maintain this car was at least $2000 a year. I still have this car 'till today and recently the fuel pump gave up, the steering wheel wouldn't lock, door handles broken etc. My other car(prius) never gave me problems and very cheap to maintain. As for me, I don't think I'm buying a mercedes again.
