Default c32

Overall, I think the c classe is the second best looking benz of all...that's until the slr is in the showrooms. I think the cl is the best looking benz. Some like the sl...I do too but I'm comparing style, symmetry, shape, dimensions...etc. The cl is put together just right. Everything fits with every other part of the car. Next would be the c classe. The car flows well. Stick in that monster engine of the c32 and you have a magnificent car.
I would own one in a heartbeat if it was reliable.

Yeah and I wish Lexus would fix their crappy service also.
It depends on dealer, those car problems are pretty much fixed after the first year.. actually make that first six months of being introduced.

Whose car is that? I think I might know them on mbworld?

Good point still think its gonna be a beast. These horsepower wars are so funny, 2yrs ago, a E55 came with 349hp, now a darn Cclass has that much! Lol

i read the review somewhere and it said that the c55 is just as fast as the c32 now, but it's smoother coz' it's just a plain v8.

oh but the outside looks better imho, at least in the back now you get quad tips instead of the c32 with the so-subtle dual tips
