You are correct, the frod v. kraut decorative differences would probably not be particularly noticeable.

She did contribute the criterion that she did not need Bluetooth on the radio.

How attached is swmba to the lux of having a kraut car over the generic 
interior a frod offers?  I would guess that the top end appointments on an 
exploder would rival the benz and come to the same costs.  I would also think 
the repair costs are fairly comparable.  Toss up

I know we are all pretty much cheapasses but wifey wants a "new" vehicle and I 
have suggested a GL or ML. (I lean to a GL just because I like bigger but she might 
prefer an ML size, there seem to be more of them available, a bit less dinero too)  She 
is totally risk averse so I am thinking some sort of extended warranty to go along with a 
used one, the CPOs have something like that, would have to look into details.  I know you 
can get something from Carmax too.  Some of these look decent, coming off lease or 
something. Loan rates are pretty low too so reasonable to finance a purchase. This is 
just sort of an initial scouting expedition.

Thoughts?  Am I stupid for looking at likely headaches?  Should I take her to 
the Frod dealer and look at Exploders?  She has a thing about not wanting a jap 
vehicle, though I think they are all built here now, but a krautkar is OK, 
which are built here too.

I just found these in Charlotte, seems they have a largish selection.  I could 
probably look at Atlanta area too, see what they have there.
