I have no illusions about future expenses but I will drive this car until I die and right now I feel as though I will live forever.
Besides the navigation system, what thinking does the S-class do for you?

I would have opted for the less attention E320. Kinda why I don't give people rides in my Vette. I park there, get out and go do what I do. Not interested in hanging around the parking lot and having people ask questions.

Hate to break it to you but nobody lives for forever. Actually, I wouldn't want to. 25 more years or so is about all I want before my body fails too far for me to like it.
