    Went from an Audi to Merc. I will likely go Japanese next but both cars were really nice I just dont think they are worth the price. I would go back to audi but they have moved to a subscription model for features so I will likely go to lexus or just a standard brand out of Japan. Definitely not American.

      Yes, price is the point. Of course, a Mercedes is going to nicer than a Toyota, but is it worth its price tag?
