A german worker gets a 3 year education. In US they get a 3 day training on the job. ...
Thats the reason why US cars are not sold in Europe: we don't want scrap !

I live in Germany. My father once bought a Mercedes-Benz importet from the USA, since the US model was a bit longer or something. At the Mercedes-Benz store they told him that when they import the cars built in America, they always have to tighten up screws and that kind of thing after importing because the built quality is just inferior for some reason.

"Buy Mercedes only made in Germany" has on exception: The G-Class. Made in Austria.

If you see a green sticker covering the manufacturing origin at the dealer on the spec sheet, it's on the bottom right corner behind the acrylic covering.

We also drive WAY less in Europe.... the distances between work, home, vacation, etc. are less

[MaxSpeedMike]

Parts are usually cheaper since they're local there in Germany. They also do much better maitenance work at the dealerships I hear. I think bad German cars are a stigma only in the USA. People in Germany make German cars out to be great over there

i used to work at JEEP, and the slavery system requires you to work 6 days a week, 10 hour shifts. focus is totally on production and quality goes out the window ( KL Cherokee)

[jintarokensei]

When I was a young mechanic, I had to fix these cars with stone wheels that had 1 driver power and had to yell "Yaba Daba Doo" to get them started.
They don't make em like they used to.

[phalanxSatan]

Because German workers actually focus completely on work when at work.

[La-ytwr]

So basically if you build your Mercedes on their website they give you a option on where your Mercedes can be made and I’m assuming having it built in Germany would be the best choice

I have Mercedes C Clas 220, 2015
And this car is great, But yees i live in Sweden, and my car is made in germany

[northamericanauto]

Never buy a Mercedes with a vin starting with a number.

[PrimePrius]

Scotty, I spoke with an old German guy. He said older Mercedes, particularly the S class until the late 80s, were built with love. Afterwards starting in the 90s, Mercedes hired so many folks to build the lesser models. Mainly farmers and poverty level folks.. Quality suffered greatly. The last real great Mercedes were the 420SEL, 560SEL and 560SEC.

[infinityjif]

so they are making counterfeit Mercedes over here in the U.S

[jmer]

I love the fact that my Lexus IS is a JAPANESE car made in JAPAN.

[mynnzal]

Ahhhh. This video finally explains it. Thank you Scotty. I always wondered why you were always putting down the Mercs when the 2 I bought have been the most reliable cars I have ever owned. I live in the UK so I guess mine have been made in Germany :)

[nukemanmd]

When I was in Europe (Czech Republic) most of the MB I had smaller engines and fewer hi-tech options. There were basic vehicles - unlike those sold in North America ... they were also much cheaper than those typically sold here. I noticed the same trend when I visited the U.K. More diesel models, 4 cylinder gas engines, etc.

[xhgcommentaryarchive]

My Mercedes C280 from 2007 was made in Stuttgart and has been a great car.

[mehdihossein]

Scotty, I really want to thank you for your honesty and information. I live in Switzerland and I saw a 2008 Mercedes S600 with low mileage for sale, but it said "US import". At first I thought so what, when I watched your videos about Mercedes. Now I know, only to buy German made Mercedes, thank you very much for saving me a lot of money! :) (By the way, the dealer was asking as much money as for a German made S600!!!)
