No, but they do have a fancy coffee machine that does stuff. (not a coffee drinker)

Do they have massaging chairs in the waiting area? If so, are they free?

If they do, I haven't found them. I'm sitting in a hardbacked chair since I'm at a table so I can write. 

Does Guido work there?

When an employee walks by you, mutter "Das Beste oder Nichts" in a knowing way, then quickly look away.

Je parle un peu de francais.

Do they have amg loaners if you bring an amg? Is German coffee any good? Whats the german version of doighnuts, and are they free? Should i spend my anniversary at the benz service waiting room, is it that awesome?

OK, so, make conversation with someone and indicate how knowledgeable you are about cars and then indicate that "you even know a little German".  Then, find the shortest person in the area that might vaguely look German and point to them.

Question for the parts counter:  What's the most expensive item you can buy from the counter that is not an engine or transmission?

I brought in an AMG, so good question about the loaner. 

I hate coffee, so not even trying it.

I got a free cookie and banana. (This is/was my lunch break.)

No, don't spend your anniversary here. Sorry, Benz, but the BMW waiting room down the street offers a lot more.

Good question. Someone should Google that. There's an AMG GT here getting what looks like a new transmission.

. Sorry, Benz, but the BMW waiting room down the street offers a lot more. 

Update: Car is fixed (loose plug) and getting a bath. 

I should clean up my stuff and log out.

Thanks for the questions. 

You should pace to and fro saying "gunter glieben glauchen globen"

In reply to ProDarwin :

my friend at Mercedes classic said an exhaust for an old 1950s 300 mercedes was $12k !

The Lexus dealership closest to my house has a nice massaging chair to relieve your stress while you wait.

I think she's saying: "the massaging chair is for paying customers only, sir."

When are they going to have a 1000V hybrid system, and call it the same as F1???

(really, someone needs to come out with a much higher voltage system....)

And some pictures.

Dropping off:

No ice cream:

Some cookies:
