You have to pay a silly price for a car, then silly yearly subscription to keep it current, if wanting more power than you would ever be able to use here / TH.

 

Speed limits are and always will be; 30 - 60 - 90 - 120 kph

 

Toys for the elite, with more money than sense ????

MB has a long record of throwing its customers under a bus, just another example of the bean counters ruling the roost.

BMW has a much better reputation in the German makes.

The only reason people buy these brands is for the cachet of ownership, the Japanese and Koreans can make autos just as good.

In the case of Lexus they are better.

The Kia Stinger kills the MB equivalent.

That is taking the p1ss.

 

Tesla do similar things. In my opinion - if it's built into in the car already, you should have access to it. 

 

Let's hope hackers can free up this 'functionality'. I can see this backfiring on them, I hope it does and they backtrack.

 

I certainly would not pay MB this money, not a chance.
