Couldn't care less.  |
Well I did thought MB copied BMW on this thing, I really did. They were really inspired by the interior design, they copied the gear level, and I thought they copied the iDrive too (while on the exterior the Maybach Concept in1996 inspired Bangle for the boot). I thought they found the idea excellent and took it, that MB did not thought to it before...
But here it seems MB did not really copy the iDrive, they were thinking to it since a long time and even had/used the idea first!
Everybody, including journalists, said it was a copy-paste, well it is not. (the interior design still almost is, though, I think).
