On the other hand, Mercedes slipped to 21st place from 20th. Not surprising. What is surprising is that they weren't lower. Poor reliability, horrible and inconsistent dealer experience, and MB corporate reps with ice running through their veins. Not a good ownership experience.

My brother leased a C300 last spring. The car has had never ending trips to the dealerships for issues. Granted most of them are build quality issues rather than something mechanical, but for a car with like 7,000 miles it's a disaster.
I swear BMW's 3-series in 2006 (E90) was a superior product than the C-class Mercedes produces today. The interior materials, driving dynamics, panel fitment/overall solidity, etc. it's not even close.
