you are not kidding, these cars are huge.

But that's why I like mine , I don't get the excitement over E and C class, even AMGs. They are just too small to have any class.

Relax, I'm kidding! But they are too darn small, specially the C (which is what I get for loaners from my local dealer)

I never thought the C/3 series cars were too small until i sat in the front seat of one yesterday and it had a child seat in the back - yup, you guessed it - not very large

Its so true, the baby seat (especially rear facing), cuts most cars down to size!

The R-Class was the only car that I could comfortably sit in front of a rearward facing babyseat in! (I'm 6'4")

I am 5'7" so front leg/head room is usually not a problem for me - except the other day in the C class and in my friend's MR2...

But from what I can see, I think the S class has more than enough room for a baby seat and leg room for anyone up front.
