It depends the queston isn't as simple as that. Sure I'd prefer car A but the choice isn't as simple.

I would drive with lots of joy some very deadly cars MG, Noble, Superformance Cobra, ect. All these cars have zero safety features except maybe seat belts.

Would I take an S500 over a 560SEL because of improved safety? Well honestly that wouldn't even enter into my decision making process.

I trust MB made a good safe car, as good as any on the road.

Okay, so you would be willing to sacrifice some security in order to drive something with a high grin quotient, I can buy into that.

Yeah I guess if I had to sum it up. I drive what I enjoy, if I don't have fun with it I sell it pretty quick.

Thats why I sold my very nice, super reliable Camry. It couldn't be faulted, but was about as fun to drive as a toaster.

I am willing to put up with A LOT if I enjoy the ride.
