Like I mentioned, not everybody is that way. But then we get a lot of threads about money and "I own a Mercedes" blah, blah. As I said it's unfortunate since there's so much more to the brand than the juvenile status thing.
There are tons of back canyon roads with very little traffic where I live. So for me a car that can really handle well is of more interest. No, I'm not a 'car racer' but I do like driving the twisties a lot. You don't have to drive fast to get satisfaction. And unfortunately there are too many cops on the freeways which is where the E Class AMG really shines. It's a great autobahn comfort cruiser. Good choice for a comfortable sedan.

That's amusing coming from a guy with two Porsches. At least where I live, guys in Porsches are usually overcompensating for something.
