If you don't like how the Mark X looks like and want the same performance look for the Toyota Royal Crown, (or hiyo Lexus IS 250). They share some engines.

the colonial social strata mentality is hard to eradicate ..it seems some people still think cars are a means of wealth expression..i believe it's becoming a hobbyist/practical endeavor that cuts across the divide..komarock or Muthaiga ..its time you reckon that..you have not met the "oil men of Kiambu" with their pick-ups

Even zamani Mercedes were associated with class and you could only find them parked huko muthaiga, runda etc. These days you find lots of mercs owned by tenants wa flats huko kasarani, donholm, rongai, Kitengela etc. The policemen never even bother to salute merc owners kwa roadblocks these days. The stars will never align, & the traffic lights of life will Never go green at the same time.

Shida ni availability of loans.Easier to get a loan nowadays. And the middle class (esp. younger ones) see no problem with taking a loan to buy the 3000cc machine.You can now stunt at Galileos & Masaku7s! And get lots of landing out of it (owning the car i.e) I once posted here about some lovely ka yellow yellow who never gave me a 2nd date coz she expected I would be driving a CLK or something....smh dropped her in a ratchet car and that was the end of it... I admire this car, hence my username here :) :) pole, women should be taught how to love the guy not his ride, could be the dad/friend's car. I have heard stories of guys who back in the day would borrow to impress, then return everything after the wedding to the rightful owners...
