i believe its a timeless car. so even if merc come out with a new one, it will de a different car and not a direct successor.

just like the sls imo is timeless in the sense that a newer model does not directly render the previous on obsolete.

i guess another example would be the countach and many other cars. they have become so iconic that they are not affected by successive models.
