Interesting read. Latest I'd heard before this is that Mercedes is already trying to address the problems with their previous models by streamlining and simplifying the electronic components in all thier cars. Also interesting about the amount of Maybachs they expected to sell in a year. 1000 seems really high when you consider the competing brands and ownership prospects, like Rolls-Royce, Bentley and... gee, I dunno, buying a yatch. Why did they sell their stake in Mitsubishi?
