[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 16579437, member: 166576"] Front suspension (and the engineering from MB) that went into the S430. The rear suspension and diff (and MB engineering) that went into the E series of that MB generation the LX went into production. 5 speed auto trans for the first few years of production engineered by MB. While you're correct that I was wrong in my assertation the LX was an old Mercedes platform, there is a significant amount of MB based engineering in use ON the Chrysler designed LX. Which makes sense since at the time it was engineered, Chrysler and Dodge were both owned by Mercedes Benz. I think its fair to say that its more Mercedes than it isnt. And credit to Chrysler/Dodge for keeping the platform revised but still based on the LX since 2011. Thats a far cry from trying to say thats similar to saying the S197 was a Jaguar. [/QUOTE]
