Growing up in a status- conscious New York suburb, we often engaged in culturally subversive sloganeering. One of our favorites was, "nothing says 'bourgeois monkey' like a Mercedes-Benz station wagon." (If we were Max Fischer in "Rushmore," we would have started a bumper-sticker company.) Nonetheless, after reading Robert Farago's review of mommy's first rocket ship, the Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG wagon, our thoughts were more in the realm of, "holy fucking shit." Score another one for the lizard brain.
