Talking 420SEL Rides smoothly

I don't really get a rough ride in this car; it rides smoothly -- with power in all kinds of normal road situations, as I would expect. (My 99 ML rides a little stiffly, but that is to be expected of that car; and the Corvette is stiff because of its suspension -- as would be expected. (My 68 230S rides very well over the road; again as expected.)
I guess all this is in the minds of the driver ..... so many different opinions of the same car models always come up in the Forum... I think some are super sensitive about little bumps and noises and others seem to accept their cars as normal, probably with exactly the same bumps and noises.
Anyway, we all seem to be fairly happy with our Mercedes, don't we?
