Dear Gentlemen and Madame:                                                      

Reference is made to our opinion letter dated May 8, 1998 with respect to the   
fairness from a financial point of view to the holders (other than Chrysler     
Corporation ("Chrysler") and its affiliates) of the outstanding ordinary shares 
of DM 5 nominal value or the corresponding no par value share, as the case may  
be (the "Daimler-Benz Ordinary Shares") of Daimler-Benz AG, an Aktiengellschaft 
organized and existing under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany        
("Daimler-Benz"), including those Daimler-Benz Ordinary Shares represented by   
Daimler-Benz ADSs (as defined therein), of the Daimler-Benz Exchange Ratio (as  
defined therein) to be received by the holders of the Daimler-Benz Ordinary     
Shares in the Daimler-Benz Exchange Offer and the Daimler-Benz Merger (each as  
defined therein) provided for in the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of
May 7, 1998, among Daimler-Benz, Chrysler and DaimlerChrysler AG, an            
Aktiengesellschaft organized and existing under the laws of the Federal Republic
of Germany ("DaimlerChrysler") (the "Agreement").                               

The foregoing opinion letter is provided for the information and assistance of  
the Management Board and Supervisory Board of Daimler-Benz in connection with

be filed with, included in or referred to in whole or in part in any            
registration statement, proxy statement or any other document, except in        
accordance with our prior written consent. We understand that the Company has   
determined to include our opinion in the above referenced Registration          
Statement.                                                                      

In that regard, we hereby consent to the reference to the opinion of our Firm   
under the captions "SUMMARY-- The Special Meetings--The Daimler-Benz Special

for those Recommendations" and "THE TRANSACTIONS--Opinion of Financial Advisor  
of Daimler-Benz" and to the inclusion of the foregoing opinion in the above     
mentioned Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby     
admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required     
under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933 or the rules and regulations of
