Buying a car is usually about as fun as getting a root canal while doing your taxes, but Matthew Colrain at Mercedes-Benz of Barrington completely broke the system. I went in expecting the usual dealershi canal while doing your taxes, but Matthew Colrain at Mercedes-Benz of Barrington completely broke the system. I went in expecting the usual dealership dance and left wondering if Matthew is secretly a wizard disguised as a luxury car expert.From the second we met, he was incredibly friendly and disarmingly honest. He knows these machines inside and out. Ask him a question about torque or ambient lighting, and he will drop knowledge bombs with the enthusiasm of a kid showing off their favorite comic book.He was an absolute joy to work with, completely devoid of that aggressive, high-pressure energy that usually makes you want to dive out of a showroom window. If you want a fantastic Mercedes and a buying experience that actually lowers your blood pressure, go see Matthew. The man deserves a medal, a raise, and possibly his own sitcom. More
