The MB S Class Sedan, Coupe, and Convertible combined sold fewer numbers than the BMW 7 Series and the 8 Series combined. HMMMM.

Assuming BMW's reported sales results are accurate, Mercedes-Benz suddenly finds itself falling farther behind BMW in the U.S. market. Mercedes-Benz's exterior design is largely unchanged from one generation to the next, which BMW is also guilty of. However, BMW has recently adopted the very large twin-kidney grille to give its 7-Series and X7 more presence.
