LOL had to share this . Saw this this morning and was laughing my *** off. This guy is insane . Seems that he was tired of the car stalling and wanted a refund. I guess he should have bought a Lexus. When will these people learn that dropping 150k on a car doesnt mean it will be perfect. I expected the new Benz to have issues. They ALWAYS DO. What I really want to know is WTF thaty golf club was made out of to last that long LMAO.

Wow--he really showed them. MB won't to that again to another customer.

LMAO the dude is off his meds but I can understand being frustrated after dropping 150k on a car and waiting for it for months. Take home message......BUY A LEXUS !! LMAO

If this is true, his frustration is understandable. The reaction maybe questionable

This, IMO, is the type of person who probably shouldn't be behind the wheel of a car in the first place. What if you accidentally cut him off without realizing it, or did something else in traffic to p*** him off? He may come after YOU with a club.

this has happened before with very expensive vehicles in Asian countries, mostly we had videos like this in China.

In China the car is over 4 Million RMB, so it's around 600K US.

I can understand his frustration. Just not the response. Looks like it's literally maddening when you have a 150k car that keeps stalling and the dealer tells you that there is no fix for the issue

Remember this one with the p***ed-off Bentley owner? It made the rounds here on Car Chat.

there's only a couple scenarios:
1. engine auto stop kicks in at a red light, moron thinks it stalled tried to restart but it won't.
2. he couldn't afford to pay for the lease anymore so he be trying anything to get out of it including smashing the car.
3. he mod it with cheap stuff and now it it's a pos.

mmarshall

Yes, that's a good point........assuming his particular car had that feature.

Really? Those are the only possible scenarios? It's not possible that the car really just was a lemon? You don't think those exist? I mean I'm not justifying his reaction, but it's certainly plausible that none of the possibilities you listed are actually what happened here.

Also, maybe I'm not not familiar with exactly how leases work these days, but how would beating the s*** out of his car get him out of his lease? Especially if he does it in public and takes a video of it (meaning he's not trying to commit insurance fraud or anything). Sure, he'd technically be out of the lease then, but he could have bought his way out for far less money than this stunt would cost him.

All the new mercedes models have that feature including amg models they also won't allow people to turn it off by default so it can get annoying if you don't want that feature on everytime.

That was painful to watch............ the vertical video, that is.

goddamn idiots holding phone vertically, with too much sky and pavement.

Turn your phone sideways if you're going to record

That was painful to watch, I would take a stalling S63 any day
