[#2] MB B-Class W246 The first B was an ugly vehicle, very unacceptable... The second B looks a bit better, but the badnesses from the series carry on. Particulary, FF layout It may be a budget buy for those who admire the brand but can't afford more expensive models, but that's all Me? Sorry, if I want MB, I want FR, that's the prerequisite, simple as that IMO, A and B classes should be killed off some day just like Maybach brand |

[#3] MB B-Class W246 i don't agree. A and B class target different market segment just like BMW 1 series. The new A class looks good to me which I believed be a direct competitor of Golf and 1 series. |

[#4] MB B-Class W246 I don't think A class can direct compete with 1 series nor Golf GTI, The handling and performance is way behind their rivals. |

[#5] MB B-Class W246 @adamschan Like I said, this brand identity really takes the toll Forget that ego and those budget buyers will have better and more reliable Japanese options For me, when shopping for a vehicle, I do take good aftersales maintenance work into account @soryedison Agreed, the A is really nothing, style-wise it leans towards the diminutive Smart lineup, average city driver, that's all 1-series hatch is quite good, only that the options list is fairly long, so you end up with a barebones car if not opting for the goodies (totalling around ~$150k) GTI hot hatch? C'mon, don't compare apples with oranges Would compare the A with a Golf GT (ie. twincharger model) instead 最後修改時間: 2012-02-12 19:37:51 |

[#7] MB B-Class W246 I actually referred to the new A class when I compared it with other series, tho nothing will be revealed until end of this year. Those spied photos look appealing to me anyway. Let us know what would you think after going to the press con. ;) |

[#8] MB B-Class W246 bm 1 series and mb b class is targeting different market segment. 1 series selling point is the performance and handling while B class is having none of them. |

[#12] MB B-Class W246 @adamschan Any info on the new A's drivetrain? FF, FR or FF/AWD? If it's FF then too bad... |

[#13] MB B-Class W246 As far as I know, a and b class are FF. You don't like FF at all or just MB in particular? |

[#14] MB B-Class W246 @adamschan Just the FF chassis, NOT MB brand Which also implies that C Class will be for MB starters IMHO MB and BMW are traditional RWD makers so why change... (like Volvo) Plus, if you buy a luxury European, why stick to FF Even for Audi, you tend to stick with 4WD model whenever possible Forget the A and B. But if one day BMW changes stragegy and render all 1-, 3-series etc. FF then I'll definitely cry foul I like MBs as long as it's AV trim level or better. However, vehicle is still too barebones unless at least $100k of options are added... Full COMAND HDD nav, reverse camera, upgraded speakers, sports sus, LSD, AMG package, fold-down rear seats (sedan option only)... just like that 最後修改時間: 2012-02-16 00:18:46 |

[#15] MB B-Class W246 FF, I guess front engine front wheel drive which is better than FR in my opinion as more stable hance safer. Simple physics, weight at front presses the driving wheels on the road - safer on slippery surface (rain, snow) and less loss in power (less drifting) in agressive driving. It's used to be harder and more expensive to build FF vs FR. People say FR gives more fun in driving but an average Hong Kong driver can't experience the fun(drifting I guess)as read from magazine or seen on TV. I never had a chance on a track day. I sold my B turbo a few months ago for VW Golf. B was a great car. Can't find another 4-door hatch back have such a roomy interior, good design/build quality and okay handling(basically it's a MPV). Especially if with family - far more safty features than you need. For agressive driving (and accelerating), 4WD is the best in my experience with a few Audi's and came to my Golf three months ago:) Never had a chance with a supercar so don't know what's like mid-engine rear drive :( Only thing you might care: resell value of MB is not good as you may thing. I lost almost half barely 3 years. My B is turbo which attracts more buyers. Talk to ZF people, they said it's the same for A,B,C,E. |

[#16] MB B-Class W246 @saikeing Quite a coincidence you got back to this thread at this time... Because today (March 1) is W246 launch @HV Racecourse!! Anyone invited to go? Old B, dun like it, cabin is too upright... Riding a Golf IMO may be a different story BTW some ppl don't really want to know vehicle tech details, some think they just want a car that looks cool and stylish or whatever, without considering other factors eg. drivetrain, maintenance..... how pathetic Dunno much on resale value of MBs, though depreciation rate is relatively lower but you're saying the otherwise!?? Does it mean, it's not worthwhile to purchase an MB anymore? |

[#17] MB B-Class W246 Depreciation? Try Prius, my dad bought a Prius 3 in 2009 @ 260K and you can still sell it at ~200K now. |

[#18] MB B-Class W246 I owned an A (1st gen lomg wheel base)then trading in B turbo in 2008, lost 40% for three years. I sold my B-turbo at car28, lost 45% in 3 years. Checked with ZF used resell department, much lower than 2nd handed market as expected. My ZF sales person told me it's the same for all MB volume models, B is not particularly lower in used market. I guess yes, it's not worthwhile for MB volume models if you are serious about resell value, at least in Hong Kong. I heard friends overseas said MB was still good. |
