It’s not like I would want this car and that’s not the point but this car was what $150 maybe and look at the infotainment.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...nz-sl-class-7/ I mean we can look the other way maybe for cars up to a certain price point but once you get to this level people expect recent tech even used. I am sure Tesla handles this the best with over the air updates that make there infotainment set up’s last longer but just like phones and tablets now cars are SUPER dated so fast by tech.

The SL tends to have a really long model run. SLK/SLC also had really long run before it was cancelled. They were definitely behind on the tech front and never got updated to latest MB tech. Guess that was less of an issue with 80s and 90s models that were more analog.
