Awesome cars, I guess it's all up to you as far as being hosed on the loan. Personally I refuse to borrow on cars. I also DON'T drive a 2006 E55.
Honestly I think that's overstated urban legend from my own personal experiences. I have a 2001 SLK (the Daimler-Chrysler years were 1998-2007 IIRC) and it's been the best vehicle I've ever owned - flawless except for an O2 sensor (which I got replaced under warranty). No issues.
