It's a BMW 1-series forum; what do you expect to hear?
That said, I don't own a 1 but am thinking of it. Currently own 2 other Bimmers, both 2011. Had MB before, wouldn't go there again if you paid me, but maybe that's just me. The image their cars now project (I don't care what people think, am sure lots of people think I'm a d**k in a Bimmer), but I DO care how it makes me feel. And an MB would make me feel...old. Even their fancy ones, just rich and old.
No one has anything to say?
