C32 Vs E55

Hi everyone:

I am interested in opinions and feedback on the C32 versus the E55. I currently have a '93 400E, and am looking to upgrade power and handling as well as reduce years and mileage. Good examples of both appear to be available in the mid 20's to mid 30's, and the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times are almost identical. I prefer the looks of the C32, but with two teenagers can use the extra leg room of the E.

Anyone else gone through the same decision process?

Comments?

Mike

C32 is a great looking car but it just too small to be practical. The E55 is just right. Besides, the E55 has loads more performance potential due to the V8. The C32 will probably out handle the car but are you going to track your car or drive it on the street?
