And - like the configurator shows - they don't offer an AMG at the moment!!

Oh, I wonder did they do the right thing and drop the R63? I hope so.

As much as people say it's a flop, I've seen my fair share, especially here in CT. It's nice that they got rid of that awkward bit of chrome down by the foggies, and yes, the headlights still look weird, but you can't win them all. Also, I saw a surprising number of these suckers when I was in Milan and Florence for 10 days.

The R is getting more interest than ever before here in the USA. We are having record R sales lately and adding a 2wd and bench style seat will only help. i like the seating because you don't give up a full bucket style seat on the outside positions, but you can get 3 kids in the middle row. That is a big deal among famillies, which is the target audience for this vehicle.

I've lost more sales with this vehicle because it does not offer any tow package.

Oh and BTW, it is not a Chrysler. It is 100% Mercedes like it or not.

Record sales, really? Interesting. Is MB running a big special or something?
