Well, they let it go thru. Walter P. is prolly spinnin' in his grave...Actually, it makes more sense than the ill-starred marriage w/Daimler Benz a few years back..BTW, one of the car mags I read sez both Mercedes & BMW are in trouble..They've about tapped the limits of the luxury-car market, & need to develop-badly- cheaper cars to survive long term. I don't know if I agree whole-heartedly; One only needs to look at Packard and/or LaSalle to see that cheapening the brand often leads to disaster.
