I have seen something like that at Borders or Barnes and Noble, they are mostly from the UK though. I have never seen an American magazine that concentrates solely on MB.

The Star (MBCA publication - so it focuses on all MBs, past and present)
Benzo (now defunct)
Prestige Magazine (crummy IMO)

I've wondered about that. I suppose a former advertiser would be the best source of information.

Benzo Magazine !! What a Joke !

Here is a post when Benzo < (roach) Magazine ripped me off. Cashed my check and never gave me squat. They are gone now.

Benzo Magazine - Metropolitan Media Group - Benzo Magazine ripoff cashed subscription check never delivered do they exist? Internet

Company
Benzo Magazine
Address:
www.benzomagazine.com
Internet
U.S.A.
Phone Number:

Fax:


I paid for a subscription for Benzo Magazine in June 2003 and have NEVER received an issue!! They cashed the check and never delivered anything, other than excuses and promises. I've corresponded with them via email, and they continue to say that I will indeed receive issues -- it's now almost ONE FULL YEAR since I paid, and the only "ISSUES" I have are trying to get what I paid for or obtain a refund!!!

In reviewing their website, I see that information appears to be from 2002, with no current activity. I also see their advertisement/links on other automobile related websites, whereas it appears they are currently eliciting business, although I doubt they genuinely are producing a product (i.e. the magazine).

I just recently sent an email to the publishing company, Metropolitan Media Group; I'll be awaiting their response.

'Only Mercedes' and 'Super Mercedes' are more of historical stories , vintage cars etc and Mercedes Enthus. is more up to date in terms of reviews, and new cars announcement , it is the best one among if he only needs to subscribe one.
