Motor Authority really does a number on the G90’s ride. Oh-oh! Use the “First Drives” tab at top of page:

Got it. My wife prefers smaller cars too, unfortunately twins and a dog means she has to drive the biggest vehicle one can find lol

Its an amazing car but I think they should have never broke the $100k ceiling. It is a $90k car at best. Once you spend time in one you feel and see the shortcomings and at that price point it becomes an issue. I love the car and would consider one but will wait for discounts as they aren't hard to find despite their attempt to hold back to create a buzz at launch.
MB service and prestige is nowhere what it used to be. They watered down the brand with more low end than high end cars and the service and showroom experience reflects that. I don't care what it sound like but when you buy several cars upwards of $125 each you should be treated better than the person who picked up a CPO $25k car. Not that they should be treated poorly but luxury goods are all about the experience which to me has left the building and why I am no longer buying MB products.
The idea that I can simply call and have the car picked up and delivered is a huge selling point in my busy life.
I think EV'ing of luxury cars will lower pricing as there is no longer a special 12cyl model which BMW is finding out now. They are trying to sell remaining 2022 760's for $175 when the have brand new 760's and i7'S loaded for 25-$50k less. EV is quieter and smoother than any 12cyl.

To be fair to mercedes I did have a good experience elsewhere but I think unfortunately that is down to the dealer level if it is good or not.
