Yeah, decades of satisfied customers and rabid enthusiasts on every continent, who have made the brand perhaps the most revered mass market nameplate on the global market, must be wrong.
 
And I am sure that they would all trade them in for a Kia if given half the opportunity!

MB's are dull and uninspired and snooty-cow.
 
Truth betold, iluvmysephia1 has never seen a MB worth spending a dime on. Just the truth.

What is a Kia Amanti then? You know, the one that is a blatant ripoff of W210 E-class styling (with some Jag DNA mixed in)? Looks like MB inspired Kia...
 
Dull, snooty, uninspired...are you sure you don't mean Lexus?

So easy....
 
Dodge Ramcharger.
 
A complete symbol of consumption bought by people that can't afford excessive consumption and are totally obsessed with tailgating and intimidation.
 
Still remember the ad campaign thats slogan was:
 
"Power that says get outta my way or I'll kick your butt"
 
So much for trying to abate road-rage. Great.
 
Oh, and make sure you get one with a hemi.... What's that sucking sound?

Yeah, What's up with that?
 
Different cars, different trucks, but if it is a Ramcharger, guar-un-teed they gonna tailgate!
 
There must be a special form you fill out before you buy one declaring that you are an aggresive driver. Then you have to take a road test tailgating a minivan, blinking your high beams.
 
I had a friend that had one with a hemi and he had to get rid of it. It was getting down to feeding the truck or feeding the kids.

A Kia Amanti is a Buick LeSabre with an E-Class front end and a Chrysler grille.

Toyota FJ Cruiser - homely looking vehicle.
 
Pontiac G6 - looks like it is cheaply made. It's advertised as a midsize, but seems a bit small for that segment.
 
Scion xB - cartoonishly boxy vehicle.
 
Ford Explorer Sport Trac - What's the point? Why not just get an F150?

Aztek (guess that goes without saying)
 
Nissan X-Terra (era that had random body bulges here and there and on the tailgate, for no apparent reason)
 
Late '90's VW Jetta. Blunt in front.
Blunt in rear. Tiny tires and wheel openings. Rear doors' cutout is an almost completely square. Only a European manufacturer like VW could get away with styling like this and it still be considered a desirable car. Actually, I probably detest this car's styling more than the X-Terra.
 
Chevy Avalanche.
 
Honda Ridgeline (styling rip-off of Avalanche)
 
Scion. Is this a shrunken Chevy Astro?
 
Ford Focus three-door. Looks like a Chevy Citation hatchback.
 
For good measure: 1978-79 Buick Century and Olds Cutlass Salon aeroback sedans. Need I say more?
