Like I said, Mercedes aren't telling the truth because they have their heads stuck up their exhaust pipes. Think the 60s and British. Oh yeah and to top it off it was also a sister car to the first AWD production car (which by the way was never officially sold here). That's why I said post yours cause I think you'll be wrong.

Actually my guess is there is an * somewhere that says 1st electronic abs for the SS mobiles. Kinda like subaru claiming the 1st cvt sold here. Not exactly correct.
