I agree, I prefer blues and greens and even purples. I would love to see the old bright aqua, blue green chameleon or emerald green come back. In fact, my latest car is Riverside blue. I do kind of like the Emerald Lake metallic on the Lyric, but unfortunately it's on the Lyric.

Too funny considering it was one day after he received another indictment again.

That Mercedes is $7500 over priced too. I wonder if the $7500 lease deal is because they can get the federal EV credit on EV's they make in Alabama . But the EQE is easily $5-10k overpriced, depending on the trim level. Especially compared to the 2024 E-class that looks better, and has a better interior and is cheaper.

The EQE sedan sold 1300 units in Q1 (more than the Ioniq 6 I might add) and the E-class sold 3000 down from 4,700 the year before. So obviously the EQE took some E-class volumes, the E-class is also in it’s 7th and final model year for this generation so it is expected that sales will trail off and people will wait for the new one in the fall. But at a time when people are craving EV’s and Tesla has 52% sales increase so far this year, the EQE isn’t doing any big numbers. Because as I said the E-class is a much better value. Drop the EQE price $7500 then it would have the same value as an E-class, just not look as good. Thankfully for Mercedes, Tesla isn’t coming for the luxury market, they are coming for the mainstream players. According to Cox Automotive, Mercedes ATP in May was up 22% from last year to $82,000. So I will be interested to see if they can maintain volume at that price level. Ford and Toytota prices are up about 10% this year, Tesla ATP is down 13% plus tax credits. As Tesla keeps lowering prices and these other bozos keep pricing consumers out, Tesla is going to take over.
