Pound $ Pound. Which car is better?
Hello Board,
I have a question for all of you guys. Which car is better? Essentialy the MB S600 should win, seeing this is mercedesshop, but which car do you guys think is truly better. Is it the S600 or the BMW 760?? Keep these factors in mind: --Interior styling --Powerplant(both are V12's) --Exterior styling --Safety features --Drivetrain --amount of gadgets    BMW V-12  MB V-12   BMW Interior

S600 all the way! I like BMW but for some reason they can't produce a reliable v12.

My 25 year old Chevy Blazer is the best car, "cause a new door made in China" only cost $75.00 while the engine can be rebuilt by any 17 year old in any town. Of course you would never want to drive a car/truck like this since they forgot any suspension.HVAC, practical space and I only get 10 MPG. Also this vehicle was designed to begin to rust upon delivery and GM really does not make any car to last without constant attention.

Thats why GM sells SO many cars, they breakdown over time, and its real cheap to get a new one.

Hows the build quality on todays BMW V-12's? The 1988 750il V-12's were a nightmare!!!

OK, Blacksheep time. Jaguar XJS. Yes you have to constantly work on 'em to keep 'em running. However, there is a feel to the Jag that nobody can match. The V12 is jet smooth, and the old British feel of the car makes for a "favourite pair of shoes" type of feel to the interior. It was a sad day when Ford bought 'em out and dumped the inline six and the "double six" engines. I have been extremely close to buying one more times than I can count. There has typically been some pressing need that has kept me from parting with the money to put one in the driveway - probably for the better.

I don't know I lean towards the 600 but the quality of the newer cars kind of has me doubting it. The 7 was so ugly at first but now I'm getting used to it and the black one towards the bottom of the pics looks sharp. AS well I personally liked the functions on the I Drive a little confusing but not to bad but did not like the hole gear selection thing.
So overall I guess I would have to go with................. W140 600SEL
