Sick for a wagon.

Tired of the MCT bashing though. I really don't think it is bad, especially if driven in S+. Its no DCT, but I think this is only relevant if you drive in M mode. Also, who wants aggressive throttle in Eco mode anyhow (or drives in ECO mode for that matter).

Fast cars in general....
Very nice numbers indeed. But how come the test car weighs 4510 lbs when MB USA says 4150 lbs? Typo perhaps?

I found the weight under MBUSA to be 4283lbs- maybe the load of 4510 includes the driver?
