I hope im not offending no one.
I went to paris a few weeks ago and i couldnt believe how many Merc's i saw, especially the E-class. Probably nearly 100. And i only saw about 2 or3 E60's.
Also there are not many french members on the forum?

Guys,
I know that it's too tempting when it's the French but we should cut it out before it gets out of control.

This topic was the humor of my day! 
Of course I should stop there but I will offer a little praise with a minor cut....
Granted they don't have a good war track record, and thier memories are quit short (World War What?), but they do have excellent tires (Michelin), Vodka (Grey Goose) and wine....and obviously poor taste in automobiles.
