I remember not so long ago..when some ppl here..thougth that MB was over and it would take them Decade's to get back in quality and reliability...

And now that they done it.. ppl just act like nothing

So from me
Major Kudos to MB and Dr. Z


Same here Artist!

OT: You wouldn`t believe how well the ML and R-Class is doing since last report. These two made the top-5 most reliable activity vehicles in their class!

As long as me and my family are happy with our cars then these surveys doesn't mean much. Well, its good for bragging rights I guess

The JD Power surveys are taken from thousands of 3-Series and C-Class owners. What your seeing is the overall score. Some are happy and some are average. If you ask me both these cars are doing very well. Mercedes should be praised for the great amount of quality thay have put into their latest designs. The previous C-Class (and E-Class) has never looked so great!

Me and my family trust our own impressions and experiences. We don't trust other, only us selves when it comes to cars.
Owning BMW since year 1994 tells us we like our bimmers.

Re: BMW 3-Series vs Mercedes-Benz C-Class JD-Power

Oh my goodness, are we serious here? All this attention on this crappy survey, which we have agreed many times that it doesn't really mean anything.

JD Power = American survey correct?

How much do you guys want to bet that the reason the 3er got a lower score is because the cup holders?! That's definitely a low point in the 3er's interior, but then again, it was even worse in the E39.

They were crap and not up to standard for American drivers. Just go look at the JD Power surveys for the E39

Re: BMW 3-Series vs Mercedes-Benz C-Class JD-Power

Even Swedish magazines have complained on JD Surveys thats its often small redicolous things that determine if the car gets good or bad rating. We swedes doesn't seem to put much trust on J.D Surveys.

To all MB fans:
If JD surveys are valid for others to bitch at MB
Then its valid for us to brag with..

So keep on
