Look at Audi's owner satisfaction. Audi is ranked better than MB at least.

MB has fallen to the near bottom of every survey. They still have a few good models (the upcoming CLE53 looks really nice), but the rest of the lineup is so blah. I'd rather take the previous gen of each model.

Is Silver, Gray metallic with Red interior the in thing to do now?.. Here's what my Emira will look like.

Same color combo I would choose (I assume that's Skycraper). Are you going to get a grille to protect the oil cooler?

Yes, Skyscraper Grey. Already ordered the oil cooler grill (more for peace of mind than anything). I've already got ceramic brake pads and a few other goodies that need to be installed.

Are you getting the Zunsport or Mishimoto grille? I'm still considering a G80, but I vacillated long enough that I'm going to wait for the MY2025.

Mishimoto...expensive, but it's solid! I would have waited for the LCI but I really don't like those new headlights. The upside is a tiny bit more power and iDrive 8.5.

The interior reminds me of a Corvette. BMW has sure changed since the 70s and 80s.
