Re: Mercedes-Benz Taxis in Germany
I think I mentioned this in another thread recently, but I know someone whose father worked for an international co. and as a result, as a child he lived various places around the world (other than coming home to the US during the summer) until Jr. High. He couldn't understand the fascination and mystique around Mercedes-Benz here in the US, because he said everywhere else he had lived they used them for taxicabs...what car guy aspires to drive what they use for taxis?
So I guess the question is what are the cars that people think are cool in Germany? Chevys? Do M-B's get looked down on because they are cabs?

Looks like the Taxi headlights could use a little attention.

Re: Mercedes-Benz Taxis in Germany
I have a friend that was just over in Europe and was commenting about the same thing, taxis were 7 series BMW's and Mercedes, what a shock compared to what we get in the states.
I can't imagine anyone over there being jealous of our crown vics/ mini vans haha.
