One more thing to consider is the way benz structured the deal: its an equity stake but its contingent on putting one of their guys on the board at tesla and also having a rep to "oversee" things at the company... Thats another way of saying "well we like your technology but you guys obviously cant run a car company to save your lives"...
This is possibly the best thing that could happen to tesla as far as finally getting things running well over there but I am still betting that the model S never sees the light of day...
