QUOTE(Noregrets @ Oct 11 2015, 06:08 PM) The QC at the Pekan plant is equivalent to the other assembly plants for Mercedes in the world. They have germans there monitoring as well I wouldn't worry about it at all and I think 98% of Mercedes buyers in Malaysia won't worry about it either. Even if they do, the but are surely motivated by the price savings. VW is the Proton equivalent in Germany - people's car. They of course subsequently own Audi and Porsche which is up market. I once spoke to some Mercedes senior executives and they told me to stop comparing VW and Mercedes - their most expensive car is Mercedes cheapest car. Not 100% correct but quite close. yea but Audi car is comparable to Mercedes. Porsche is comparable to Mercedes Sports lineup. |

QUOTE(advocado @ Oct 11 2015, 06:10 PM) yea but Audi car is comparable to Mercedes. Porsche is comparable to Mercedes Sports lineup. Car industry people don't look at the group ownership level. When they talk Volkswagen it's only Volkswagen. When they talk Audi, it's only Audi regardless that it is part of VW group. Same for Porsche. Fiat also owns Ferarri but people treat them as completely different companies. I often wonder why VW dsg gearbox is so much problem. The Porsche PDK is wonderful and very robust and I asked the people at Posrche why they don't share the knowledge with VW to improve their gearbox. The answer is they operate independently. |

CBU = Bought by stupid rich person who thinks Merc will allow quality control to drop just because its assembled locally.
CKD = Bought by stupid poor person who want to appear rich but cannot afford to buy the real thing thus settle for lower cheap version.

For C & S class, the CKD parts are 100% from Germany. They came like lego set. Only E class are with local parts.
