They also shouldn't have their interior lighting be inspired by a 80's brothel.

Kinja'd!!!

And last but not least the upholstery should be tasteful and not this awful modern mess that Mercedes decided was a good idea. They look like cheap seat covers.

Kinja'd!!!

Now let's look at how the other brands did it.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Fucking tasteful.

Rant over, have some classy stuff.

lmao that leather seat example looks like the chair is wearing leather armor in a game like Neverwinter Nights or some shit.

My seats have +2 Studded Leather Armor.

So... I'm not the only one who wants this back? Not that I think they look good (which I don't), but they look so comfortable.

Why shouldn't a luxobarge look modern? Old school and luxury don't always have to me one and the same.

I'm ok with it looking modern, the problem I have is the "extreme" part, like the upholstery design or that retarded clown steering wheel, that just looks out of place.

I think the stupid steering wheel hasn't Got anything to do with being modern. In fact, it was one of the few elements on the car that was supposed to look retro.

As for the seats, I like them. I guess tastes just differ there.

09/24/2014 at 19:48

Kinja'd!!!1

Yeah, and that's normal I guess, just like our taste in boats. And now that you mentioned it I can see that it was supposed to look retro. Still too modern for me, I'm not ok with progress, I like my things contemporary and clean.

Have you sat in the new S-class? Your mind will be blown. It absolutely destroys anything else that has ever existed in terms of comfort.

I have, in the Mercedes Museum. I'm not question its capabilities just the designs.

I'm perplexed that you get the GLA but not the A-Class.

But a slitghly lifted plasticky A-Class will?


Kinja'd!!! EL_ULY > My citroen won't start

as plasticky as most European cars lol. Lifted is good though. Like an XC70

Oh, by "plasticky" I meant all the extra body moulding. Is there a market for them in Texas?

Sort of...

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

but not exactly. We like our metal brush guards

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

perfect for doing up keep on your property outside the city, driving through the terrain. I know we do. Centralized cities and mass transit does not really exist in our massive state. Most people don't have properties out in the country or haul tons of heavy equipment on a daily basis, but a lot of people do. A weenie little A 180 would not be a good choice lol.
