Back in the day BMW had an ad saying the same thing, a Mercedes can also bring driving pleasure as well. I guess this is the same since the advertising of the E39’s on the trailer of the Mercedes Semi

They are going in the right direction, with the weight addition to the M5.

They are learning and poised to produce and manufacture their own semi- vehicle carrier truck so only BMW brings you the joy and ultimate driving pleasure
