Data like this tells you nothing.. the "average" figure has no bearing on the distribution of individual incomes... there will be a unrepresentative number of huge multi-million $$$ annual incomes and equally some who are a lot lower than $300K... these figures are as arbitrary and unrepresentative as is the stereotype that you are a 55 year old middle aged buyer... gasp!

Can we talk about the cars now?

Thank you, I was going to say something like this but didn't. The S-Class forums have been divided into two sections. The first half which deals with the actual cars, mods, and concepts whereas the second half of the topics deal with 'You shouldn't buy this car if you don't have an xxxxxx income' or just the matter of money. I guess it is true, the one religion that everyone will follow in the end is under the following of the Almight Dollar.
