As for quality i certainly hope so, that would be a major positive aspect for MB.

As for quality i certainly hope so, but the new S isnt in the States yet, and doesnt have much time on the roads in other countries either. Give it a year, and the results would be more valid as per quality/reliability. Cant expect a brand new car like a MB S class to fail as soon as its released....hehehe.

he was talking about the C-class in the US JD power survey wasn't he?

Hehehe... overlooked that by mistake, i will edit my post.

Wow these JD results are going to be interesting. What a turnaround for the C-class to top its class. Lets hope it marks the true rebirth of Mercedes reputation for top notch quality and isn't just a blip on the radar.

Interesting review, but the survey he's talking about is the Customer Satisfaction Survey, not the dependability or Initial Quality Survey. The survey he is talking about justs asks if people like the car or not after 90 days, or 1 year, but I'm pretty sure its 90 days. Still though it is a start.

I agree. Any good press/results about Mercedes is good news nowadays.
