Forbes- In Depth: 10 Clunkers To Avoid

With 6 out of 10 of them being large-engined, unreliable M-B products, that's no surprise, but the Jeep SRT-8 is interesting. My guess is that, with the SRT package, unlike most Jeep products, there's not much you can do with it except run like hell in a straight line. There is, of course, like with M-B, the lower-than-average Jeep reliability, but, with the SRT model, the redone ride height, tires, and suspension limit the amount of towing, off-roading, and snow traction it has, compared to regular Jeep models, and a lot of people apparantly see little need for a dragster SUV that can do little else. GM found that out some years ago with the Syclone and Typhoon.

Everyone that has said they'd love to drive every one of them... that's exactly the problem, they're great to drive, but not great to own.

That's nice forbes but I'm going to own at least one of the following cars at some point in my life:
"10. Benz E63 Wagon
9. Benz SL roadster
8. BMW M5 sedan
7. Benz CL 65 coupe
6. Benz S63 sedan"
preferably the SL roadster. I love the look of the mercedes SL, particularly the rear. It's got that great wide body aggressive look and the tail lights compliment it perfectly.
That's part of the reason why I decided on the lexus IS, i think of the IS, bmw 3, and infiniti G the IS mimicks the mercedes SL the closest from the back. It's got the wide body and the sexy slant (tail lights)
Or, to summarize my love for the mercedes SL and lexus IS :

Well this will at least explain why many high rollin drug dealers in south central can pull these cars off. When the car breaks down they can chuck it and just get another.
