Will the new Mercedes C outsell the BMW 3 in 2008?

Just added a few clips from YouTube. Enjoy.

New C Merc is as sporty as the BM, offer value for money, historically they hold their value better and I believe operating costs are becoming more of a factor.

Mercedes will always retain the value and more for the established business people who have a distinct status and BMW will always be street hype and sexy and for the young with access to money not necessarily rich and successful, the opinoin is that when these two 21st century tyre machices are parked next to one another they strike the human mind so diffrently and have different social influence while they are serving the same purpose. Which car is more likely to be stolen or involved with thugs and armed robbers i guess your guess is as good as mine. Which of the two cars turns on the young ladies and pumps the hormones down the streem in young man, i am sure a lot can be said about these great cars it depends who is looking and whose buying. If the survey were conducted and one of the critical factors being the age of the buyers we would have a clear indication as to who is who in the zoo, what appeals young and successful and rich and established pionners. Is there anyone who can air their opinion out there on this one. Mercedes will come out tops after all.

Brand loyalty can only do so much. At the end of the day, it is the value that counts. Not to mention Mercedes is a popular brand especially among Asians in North America.

ye I like the new C and saw more new ones vs the 3 (obviously I don't own one so I cant really tell which ones are new 08's)
