Ok I am still in shock after you told me you were getting the E. But good luck with it! And I want a ride whenever I make it to SD.

Ok also, my mom's CD changer was sent back to Benz...she never got her CD's back either. So its a universal problem. (Although I am agreeing with M on the CD suicide. I mean if I had to play Clay Gay'kin music I would kill myself as well.)

Seems you got some good options at least. Though I would have held out for the AMG...mmmm those are sweet.

So Far our 06 5 series is a sweet ride and very reliable.
If realibility is all you want, how about a toyota?

E61Silver is an unknown quantity at this point
What about that Volvo, it is safe.

Still think you would be most happy with a 335

T2's are sick, too bad they cost more than f'ing E70's.
