I experienced a MB quality glitch last week. Went to the local dealer to test drive the '04 C230 Sport Sedan - the only 6spd within 100 miles. The car was unloaded off the truck that AM ... wasn't even preped yet. I hop in with the sales guy in the pass seat and try to put my seatbelt on ... no go. The tensioner was stuck. He tried for 10 minutes to free it up, but it wouldn't budge. They had to overnight replacement parts from Germany to fix it.

I was a little shocked at this obvious quality glitch (don't they check the belts before shipping?), but I really liked the car. My first MB drive and I loved it. Cheaper than my Explorer too.
