Like "Circle BMW" is going to say "No, don't buy a BMW from us. Go buy a Merc instead." .

Perhaps VW should also run an article "You should have bought a used Jetta. The new one is bigger and better, but it's been watered down to American tastes so the interior materials and suspension are less sophisticated than before."

And oh, on the S-Klasse v. 7er debate, I'd get the Merc. The 7er is a sweet car but I don't want a "sporty" limo car. Not everything should be sporty.
