What !?!

The cars are built by Mercedes, so they are Mercedes. The people who think otherwise are silly. think about it, cars made by Mercedes are not Mercedes. What kind of logic is that ?

using that kind of messed up logic, I can say that C-class coupes are not cars. they are airplanes.

At least its better than your Mazda as well... If you own mazda dont talk about the performance of your car comparing with any type of mercedes even A Class, well better to share your comments in any Honda's Forums.

Agreed, I bought mine for safety and technology. I saw a picture on here somewhere of a C-sedan that was creamed in the rear at 75mph and the passenger compartment is totally intact. The passengers walked away from the crash too. I want to see other cars, including Mazda show the same results in a rear end collision. Does anyone remember or have that picture? It was a silver C-sedan.

Mazda 6 for performance? 0-60 time isn't that much faster... within .5 seconds... And seriously... people always talk about these times... 0-60 time, 0-100 time... but what you need to see is the amount of time it takes to reach a certain distance instead of reaching a certain speed... *sigh* o well... what a troll... Go jerk off in your Mazda...

So, It is something you won't understand before you own a MERCEDES. Will a sexy lady come to your mazda and give you her phone numer?

HA probably... Or his friends from high school are driving Mercedes and he's just plain jealous. O, and so far I know 2 Mazda 6 owners... They're both female, that says a lot about the car I think.

with the exception of the last two posts (with the crash test pic and the funny cartoon pic), I just wasted 30 minutes of my life !! That's 30 minutes I could have been driving a Mercedes. 30 minutes with my COUPE. My COUPE. How I love my COUPE. It's funny, yesterday, I parked over by Sunset Cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and caught myself staring at my car from a distance with the blue sea in the background. Man what a sight. You know what snapped me out of it ?

a ricer Mazda drove by with a loud exhaust. (doing 20 mph by the way).
