Yes, people are sheep, but come on... there are always diminishing returns as price increases, but it's like any other sensory experience: just because you can't tell the difference doesn't mean that others can't. That's like telling Mac users that they're wasting their money because "I can't tell the difference". Every niche has its own hackers and fanboys, winos included.

And I'd love to know which Toyota he feels is better than a Mercedes C-class, and I don't even like Mercedes...
