Seriously guys, we need to get out of the sterotype that SUVs are everywhere. They aren't anymore.
On a side note. The MBenz C-Class was introduced after the E-Class became larger. MBenz needed another entry level segment in the US. Back in the 80s, the E-Class (190E, aka w201), was small. |

In fact, the only helicopter ride I can recall wasn't even a collision but came from a teenage member that fully admitted he was driving like an ass and rolled his LB a few times on a deserted stretch of road.

If they want me in a mid-size or bigger car, then they better build me one that get's at least 40 mpg and costs under $16K. Yeah, that will happen!
Point is, there's a reason we want or have to buy small cars - cheap and efficient are two of the main reasons! |
