Those are nice. ex girlfriend had one, fast and nice cars.

But I still prefer how solid my benz feels.

I'd drive the BMW though,a nd love it if I had one.

They are sweet, liked the 2001 model and was surprised how well I fit into it (6'1).

It was going to be my second choice if I didn't find the CLK Cab. I was looking for.

Not much room in that trunk. I suppose that's not really the point though, is it?

Lovely car. Would glady suffer with trunk size (suffered with various minimal sizes my entire life) if I had one.

I'd definitely get the BMW 3-series over the current C-Class. Except maybe the M3, it is a great car, however there is something that I don't like about it. The C32 is more my kind of car.

The e46 BMW is one of the best looking cars made. I just hope that the new 7 styling doesn't make it over to the e46's replacement, although I am sure it will. The 7-bug is going to infiltrate the 5 in 2003

There were a stream of letters to the editor in a recent issue of Roundel complaining about the aesthetic qualities of the new 7-Series, so it's not just Benz guys. Bimmerheads don't like it either.
