Wow what a beautifulllllllll car. It looks so different from anything on the road but yet so good. Goodluck with the new car!

Very nice choice. As the other said, put in some nice HRE rims. But if not before getting the CLS did you look at some alternatives, that said, Audi A7, Porsche Panamera, BMW 6 Series (GranCoupé would be the same plus two more doors, how it looks we saw from the Concept)?

pretty good but ive just never been a fan of that bottom

[greenfunk]

Just curious, why didnt you go for the AMG instead?

Congrats, I have to say the Merc. and Audi interior design looks way more germanic and high quality than BMWs.

20,000 reasons, I think.

Germanic = Frugal

Mercedes left "Germanic" a long time ago (Maybe the late '80s), and Audi? Never was, always to many LEDS.

Nice! I came from Mercedes to BMW haha


great cars. I would love to have an E55. amazing car.

Wow, that may be the best looking interior I have ever seen. Front end is stunning too. Gobs of torque. I'd say job well done.

i drove one based on this review and what I saw the pix of the 6speed member.
The car is nice. However, my 2cents. if i am gonna pony up 80k then, i might as well pony up the additional 20k and get the AMG CLS. I don't even drive fast. But the interior is hot and loved the engine sound.

Enjoy the car in good health.

But it was time for an upgrade.

I had a stunning 2011 E92 M3 which had some major problems that caused me to get rid of it after about 11 months or so.

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of major problems was the M3 having??

+1, I really like the F10's rear. The new 5er design has really grown on me.

LOL

Well at least they are more germanic than BMWs increasing asian influence.

Congrats. Can't wait for the next gen MB's. They look very tempting.

[GregTheStig]

The new CLS is beautiful! Congrats on the new ride man.

I could NEVER get rid of an E92 M3 after having driven one on a track, but I understand that after all those issues you had sometimes you just want to get out. Sorry you had bad luck with it

But you got a gorgeous car to replace it at least

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing.

He got into an accident which probably led to his problems.

Sweet! I'm a longtime BMW fanboi, but I'm past that now and have actually started to notice the great advances that 'the competition' is selling. Nice!
