Personaly after sampling the V12, IMHO now the V8 is like drinking alcohol free beer, or eating fat free cheese.
  Owning a V12 is like dating a Playboy model, its going to cost you a fortune but you will have fun!

It's not worth it, under warranty sure, but never, ever again. Get a supercharged V8 instead.

I'm not so sure about the AMG models. I know that the supercharged 5.5 liter engines are generally very reliable once you replace the intercooler pump but the sportier appearance and ride puts me off of them....I think a standard CL500 would be fine.

Bruno Sacco said the W126 was his most perfect creation. W126,W215,W216........W140

Why is the 450SLC not included in the line up?
 I'm sure Bruno Sacco would choose the C126!  Here's an interesting article: http://straight-six.com/blog/?p=2939

 The SLC was and will always be an interesting vehicle. For simplicity I decided that this thread should concentrate on S-Class based coupes. Personally I think the SLC is a closer relation to the E-Class coupes then the SECs.

SLCs are great but they are not "full size" they fit in a weird Mercedes size offshoot. The 280CE would be more like an E-class. The SLC was bigger than the CE but smaller than the SEC.

Really? I always thought the line up was that the SLC came before the SEC. Hmm... interesting info.

In terms of size or timeline? SLC was before in terms of both, sorry if my wording is weird.
