Hmm one of the few cars I like better in silver than in black. Those rims are nice but I think I actually like it in the more stock form with the big 5 spoke rims. Either way, MB has the best exterior design on any luxury car period.

I do think the new GS almost looks as good . . . . . which doesn't mean much Frankly, while it isn't bad at all, I'd take an E class over it, but it does have a more posh interior.

the E55 and CLS55 drive about the same unless you push it, then the CLS feels a LOT tighter...

How do you have all the hookups for driving all the Benzes man? You have all these crazy "insider" opinions on the CL65, CLS55, and the like. What's your secret?

I didn't like the MB CLS at first, but it has grown on me. The Brabus CLS is the nicest one i have seen so far.

I have to see the GS in person before I make up my mind. IMO though, the CLS is more stirking in pics and I do like it while the GS, I am sure being biased comes into effect.

I like everything about the CLS better than the E-class except the rear.

my dad is pretty much best friends with the owner of MB of Escondido (Angelo D, not Orville Paul the nutcase) and since Angelo knows me and my passion for cars, he hooks me up with test drives, first drives, occasional european delivery pickups for him...

and my favorite...what we like to call the ABUSE-A-BENZ DAY (4-5 times a year), which we pretty much flog, beat, race, trash, try to mess the **** up AMGs, or regular MBs...they said if we can break it on the testing ground, they'll give me one... i haven't broken one yet...

To their credit, i CANNOT spin a car out with ESP on...
