That's funny because I went through the same discussion with some of my buddies here. While I was at his house with our friends for a "co ed" book club meeting that our ladies pretty much made us join in with them last month, the guys ended up outside talking about our cars.The contenders were a brand new 600 that the host just bought a month ago glistening in the garage, a Clk, a 300 sedan(W140), my 560 (126) an S Type Jag, NSX and my other car, 250 C (I had to drive because I didn't want to pick the wife up from the hair dresser so she took the 560). Another partner that has an ML has had sooooo much trouble with it its a shame (interior and exterior lights going out, his engine locked on a long distance trip over the summer and his wipers act up at times-probably only when it rains).
We ended up driving each other's cars too (some of them anyway) and for some reason I went with the 140 ( I just love the look of em too) with the 600 a close 2nd, the 140 owner,the NSX owner,the CLK and even the host liked my 126's ride better than theirs to my shock
The jag owner loved the NSX ride better than his and the ML owner would pretty much take anything (its his wife's car and the CLK is his so he hears it!) I guess it all depends on what kind of ride you want. Although I love the ride of my 560, I guess its just that I'm used to it and I think that's what the other guys experienced also. My 126 is very roomy and thats the first thing that anyone says when they get in it. Some even prefer to ride in the back for that "limo" feel
Everyone loves my 250C's and they appreciate that baby sitting still and they've seen it or ridden in it when I open her up so that wasn't an issue.
I guess any and everyone will have an opinion on this one but I sure did enjoy myself comparing different vehicles and appreciating each for its own qualities. Have fun with it fellas!
