Thread 28605671

this is the new Mercedes interior. this time with a single screen, stretching from pillar to pillar

oh well

yeah man i'm done with new cars.

>>28605671 (OP)
Awesome.

Between Porsche "you have to buy 3 cars before we'll let you buy the one you want" and the entire rest of the German market, I'm over European cars. Stellantis fucked over Alfa and maserati, fucked fiat everywhere except South America, Mercedes is shit, BMW is shit, Audi barely exists, Jaguar doesn't exist, the French are the French, lotus is Chinese
An I missing anything?

>>28605681
fpbp

mashallah

>>28605671 (OP)
Disgusting. I hope Mercedes goes bankrupt and takes all the faggots who are responsible for this right to the bottom. Fuck them.
t. German

>>28605698
Are you rich enough to buy a new GT3 or are you just a seething poor? Wait, don’t answer that.

>>28605698
i'm sure the german companies are so upset that they lost you as a customer

How does it keep getting worse? How do they not learn their lesson? Do they just want to run their company into the ground?

>>28605698
>"you have to buy 3 cars before we'll let you buy the one you want"
Can you afford a GT3 RS? You're able to buy one of their street cars all day.

>>28605779
What I'm wondering is if Merc's really decided to try and compete with the Chinese, to see who can make the most trashy kitchen touch appliance on wheels.
The Chinese have a lot of experience building trashy touch appliances.

>>28605671 (OP)
I seriously cannot conprehend this,why do their buyers like this shit,do they seriously still think screens=expensive in fucking 2025?

>>28605789
What do you mean? China has like 40 different variations of all black interiors with nothing but a screen and MAYBE 5-6 real buttons for like the emergency flashers and the defroster.
The problem is Mercedes forget about elegance and functionality.

>>28605796
I think the employees are trying to kill off the company through sabotage.

>>28605779
probably got jews and jeets running the place

>>28605698
nah, shit is pretty accurate im afraid
its quite sad, up until ~15 years ago we were making some kino cars. i can still remember the days when 60k euros could get you an m5 that didn't weigh much over 2 tonnes, or a manual 911 non-turbo that was, you know, not fucking turbocharged.
sad.

t. euro.
if i had to buy a car today, for use here, it'd be a tesla. for use in north america, it'd be a pickup truck with a v8. or maybe a proper BoF suv, again with a v8.

>>28605671 (OP)
is it me or only alfa romeo still has a somewhat classic interior?
eu-market btw.

>>28605671 (OP)
So does the passenger not get a frontal airbag anymore?

>>28605671 (OP)
Mercedes peaked with the W123

>>28605955
they do it just also comes with shards of lcd glass to the face

>>28605681
>yeah man i'm done with new cars.

the old ones are better built, better looking and modern enough anyway

Mercedes is pathetic. They had a good thing running until 2010. Then Tesla blows up and with Zetsches departure in the late 2010s they get a retarded leadership that dilutes the brand into absolute slop trying to copy Teslas success. They been producing shit vehicles since 2020 and are keeping up only because most people still think Mercedes is luxury. Absolute joke.

>>28605796
>do their buyers like this shit,do they seriously still think screens=expensive in fucking 2025
yes. for all the hemming and hawing about manufacturers going to screens because it's cheaper than buttons, it's still only luxury high end cars having more than an iPad sized screen.
normies can and will still brag to their friends about having the car with the biggest screen.

>>28605671 (OP)
I actually don't hate the way it looks, but the total lack of physical controls is a fucking nightmare.

>>28605719
>>28605786
Have you ever kissed a girl (female)?
I guess you are in the same boat, then.

>>28605966
I had a w116 4.5 4spd, euro lights and bumpers, in America back in 1990ish.
It was real cool, but like any cheap German car it had 99 new problems every day. It never failed to lay down two stripes, though.

>>28605671 (OP)
We went from:
>no screens, physical buttons
>no buttons, ipads slapped on dash
>no dash, no buttons, only screens
in the span of about 10 years.

>>28605698
Imagine if stellanis just rebadged giulias as dodge hellcats, changed the grille, and put "hemi" on the side of the car for the lulz. Also sell it with pre-tinted windows and only in black or purple. Would've sold like hotcakes.

>>28605796
consumers don't matter. You're living in a communist, planned economy, except this time it's all fake & gay.

Kino.
You chuddies don’t like futuristic shit?

i doubt its a single screen tho

>>28607210
it wasn't. NOW it is. it's a brand new interior

>>28605671 (OP)
Imagine in a few years how amazing this will look with ultra thin bezels. So cool to see innovation like this

how many years until they can implement this shit without ruining the entire aesthetic of the car?

>>28607245
We are finally transitioning from the era we know to the futuristic one. I expect it will take 10 to 20 years for this to become good

I wish car designers never saw the success of gamer branded anything. Gamer cars is such a stupid concept that their existence hurts me physically. My doctor prescribed me with 20mg of codeine phosphate just to cope.

>>28607245
>>28607252

these are the low iq retards this garbage appeals to

touch screens are quarter century old and are only used because they are cheap not new, and the UI trinkets are all so they ca sell subscriptions

this shit is objectively ass

>>28607210
>Indian name on screen
It was over before it started.

>>28605671 (OP)
>navigation
>music
>settings (seat adjustment / climate / etc)
which one of these requires a screen this big

if the glass is coated with thick anti-reflecting material. It may not look that bad. Not that I would want one. Its overwhelming. I know this because someone I know did a aftermarket Anti-reflect screen guard to superscreen in E class

>>28607258
But i didnt say it appealed to me??? I think its horrible but its clear to me the future of cars is heading to EV with as much touch as possible

>>28605779
Blame Tesla for mindbreaking normies into thinking touchscreens = luxury.

>>28607698
nah
i blame everyone else for cargoculting tesla

>>28607292
>Imagine in a few years how amazing this will look with ultra thin bezels. So cool to see innovation like this

sorry bro, I meant to quote the dingleberry above you

>>28605698
bentley and rolls royce

>t. German
I don't know if it's going on outside of the US but almost 20 years they've been building shitboxes for the pavement ape demographic that are essentially just dolled up corollas and shitty suvs to take advantage of their poor credit scores.
my immediate response to a mercedes is not the way it was when I was a kid, now I asume it's some dipshit poor ass living in an apartment complex trying to project wealth.

Digital buttons and knobs don't break.

>>28608012
Mercedes truly lost the plot. The only "people" who still drive that shit are immigrant drug dealers or complete NPCs.
