I have recently become very interested in MB because of the exterior styling. However, I am very concerned about reliablity, I don't want do spend a down payment on a house, and have a car in the shop all the time.
Any MB owners out there to help me with thier experiences?

Hey, if it breaks down, you could always live in the car rather than the house you didn't buy for the sake of the car. Of course, you might have to have it towed to a state park or the local Y if you want to use the rest rooms/showers.

I guess it all depends on what the criteria for "winning" is, and how the criteria is weighted.

I thought MT didnt do an "import of the year" anymore? I admit I havent read the magazine in a few years though.

You are right...MT no longer divides the cars into domestic or import...all are judged/tested together.

It really no longer makes any sense to have an "import" award anyway. What is the definition of an import these days? Accord, Altima, and Camry are all built here in the US. Are they imports? Are Mexican or Canadian built Fords or Chevys domestics?
