I would sooner get the E55/E63 than the S. Do you like modding your cars for PWR? If you do, then I'd get the E55 in a heartbeat!

Fastgreek · 05-18-2009, 11:24 PM

i mod everything i have.i love speed, hp running thru my vains, my background is mustangs, grand nationals, cars like that.Ever since i got married and wife had kids i upgraded to german cars.

I would seriously consider getting a late model (2005/06) E55 then. The later models have the upgraded suspension and steering components from the CLS. Speaking of the CLS, you may want to consider a CLS55 also to your list. But I digress

The E55 has tons of room for 2 kids, PWR, looks and is a lot easier to mod than a naturally aspirated engine like the 63 or like I'm trying to do with my C55

i dont think there are any S65s in the mid 50s... But if you can spend more S65 is the best option.

SoCalCLK · 05-19-2009, 12:50 AM

Great question. I would get an E63 or S63 and be done with it. Either way, you will miss your CLK, lol!

The car is beautiful.I REALLY NEVER WANTED TO GET RID OF IT , IT'S JUST THAT EVERY TIME I HAD THE TOP DOWN WITH HOW BAD MY ALLERGIES ARE I WOULD BE LAID UP FOR DAYS.

Fastgreek · 05-20-2009, 12:25 AM

love your screen name

Fastgreek · 05-20-2009, 12:26 AM

cl600 is another option

Autoscope · 05-20-2009, 09:44 AM

My question is: Can you handle a car without a warranty? If so, I think you should test your waters with a 65 something. I've seen a 2005 CL65 go for Low 50's. Car was flawless, these guys could help, ecarlink.com....OR get a E55/E63 and call it a day.....

Fastgreek · 05-20-2009, 12:04 PM

as soon as my car leaves i will be on the look out for my new car, i will check them out thanks.

Fastgreek · 05-20-2009, 12:05 PM

i have seen this company on ebay plenty of times, thanks

if you want to stay German by not necessarily stay with a MB i would look at the Audi S4 and BMW M5 as well. The Audi and BMW both have nicer interiors in my opinion. The M5 has a V-10 and a better out of the box suspenion than the MB's on your list. The Audi is a sweet all around performer with all wheel drive.
