The MB is definitely the car for the long haul and for those that don't own MB/BMW repair shops.

The BMW 5spd tranny is a much nicer package for a performance car than the MB spd. The BMW goes to a sport mode when moved top 4th gear position or to the tiptronic position in the later trans.

Again I would definitely rather have the MB trans for longevity.
