Anyone else get their new issue of benzo?

I don't get it - there's about 4 pages of mercedes stuff, 3 pages on ******, 15 pages of ugly broads (seriously ugly), 4 pages of bikini models - not bad but still... then ads and other junk.

What gives? This thing totally went down hill. This issue is absolute crapola. I mean why would I buy a car mag to read about **** review, ****** and other totally unrelated stuff? not like it even meshes with the image of a Mercedes.

Benzo has been a complete let down in my opinion. The last issue with the Women of Wicked was the final straw. Total ghetto magazine.

Adam, do you mean the "lifestyle" magazine of Benz owners doesn't represent your lifestyle? It's not mine, either. Or anyone elses except for a few athletes and entertainers.

My mother hit town and began to tidy-up the magazines. Benzo impressed her even less than it did me. It was the first time, and hopefully last, that I here Mom say "*****."
