For all you guys complaining your MME is becoming too common get off some of that cash and buy something a little more exclusive. The Mercedes EQS, beautiful and rare!
I have seen the EQS close up. It is a medium sedan, not a crossover and it is too expensive. The MSRP in the U.S. Is over $110,000 and locally it sells for $140,000!

And the charge port is at the right rear, so you have to back it up at charging stations.

For that price I prefer buying two Mach-E cars.

Uglier than a tesla
This is going to be my new go to insult. Not just for cars. The house on my parent's street that someone painted mauve - uglier than a Tesla. Latest tik tok beauty trend - uglier than a Tesla. Best friend's new girlfriend - uglier than a Tesla.

It's so.... generic.

If you'd blurred out the badging and told me it was the new Malibu, Elantra, Corolla, or other mid-range fleet sedan with after-market wheels from a rent-to-own wheel shop; I'd have believed it.

It's like Dodge scrapped their secret plans to bring back the Stratus and sold the design drawings to Mercedes. Or maybe this was the Taurus design that made Ford give up on cars for good.

You know that's quite a good observation, I never looked at it that way.

Seems a lot of cars are like this now, all looking so much the same.

I drive 80 miles a day going back and forth to work. I don't see any other Mach-Es until I pull in the driveway and that is only IF my husband is home when I get there.

I'm the opposite - I park next to a MME GT at the office. I see a few Mach Es around Dallas but it's not a daily occurrence for sure.

I saw a Lucid Air for the first time in person this weekend - that is a big car. And really good looking, to boot.

Looks like an early 2000s Chrysler Sebring, only more jelly bean-like if that's actually possible.

I think Mercedes missed the mark by designing their cars for aero instead style. Buyers will pay more for a battery that gets them the same range even if it's less efficient. These cars just look awful IMO.

I am genuinely curious who will get this EQS over Taycan. Even the Audi Etron GT is better than this. Not to mention Model S plaid and lucid air if you like some new brands.

Kinda looks like a stretched out, 100 grand jelly bean to me.

The inside is gorgeous ... but, the outside... nothing exciting about it. The Mach-E looks better for a much lesser price. I have a Mach-E GT PE and ordered a i7 to replace my 2020 750ix M Sport. The car is cool but, no sizzle... my 2 cents.

But, but, you will be exclusive and won't need to start a forum thread to say your car is becoming too common, police departments are buying them, too many in my town, they all look the same, etc., etc., etc.!!! ?
I would have to start a thread about living out of that car and eating ramen daily.
