IMO perhaps the cheesiest and most classless thing M-B has done. They're going too far on riding the Star emblem now. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it's an MBUSA only thing, as MBUSA doesn't compare to M-B ROW in many ways.

Flava would be proud.

but they still don't have these


I also think flavor flave is a bad way to represent MB, so why compare him to the cool star that lights up? LOL

^^ We have that on a few of our loaner vehicles. Light is pretty cool. Lighted star is expensive, and only comes on when parked, not when moving...

When I first saw this as a new build option, I howled. WTF????? For a brand that prides itself on understated luxury, this is just over the top. That would be a deal breaker for me if the car came with the piece of "look at me".

I give props to Range Rover Evoque for starting that trend properly and apply that under the side mirrors as puddle light.

Let's be honest. MBUSA is trying to own the "Jersey-Shore" market with this one.

Unfortunately.
