So I'll be the only 1 to say the Benz looks stupid pump it up a few degrees, and as for the Benz is badass and my car is so so please, how exactly is it more badass, I have 2 friends 1 has a 540i and the other has a Jaquar S-Type V6, the BMW guy thinks the Jag is so much better then his car, in that case I think he's nuts

Please explain to me why his car is more badass, yes the E500 performance potential is nice but if I went with the overall package I'd go GS300 but then the GS300 has nice performance potential to, and how come you don't drive the car.

The Benz looks stupid cause it reminds me of the Caprices with 24 sitting like that.

I think you are taking things a little personal. No one said anything about your car.

I think visuals are subjective. Everyone will have different perspectives on what is visually pleasing. The current model E is just one of the cleanest car to me. The lines are nice and this one is done up beautifully (again to ME).

I am not sure about the others, but I was mainly talking about how nice that car looks. I am not making any claims on the quality of ownership or reliability issues. I would not mind owning that car but it would have to have access to other cars (like my GS).

ok just so i get this right......

to have a VIP look you have to wear your tires to threads within 5k miles and have unusually sensitive steering that catches every bump in the road and throws you all over the place?

Heck, my bimmer has been VIP since day one!

The EClass is very nice, but honestly I think the Aero on JT's car "flows" a little nicer. I love WALD, but I think the Eclass kit has too many character lines (which really shows up on silver). Love those wheels

kinda funny, coz' if you look at the lines on the wald kit on the e class, they are almost the same as that on the sc430

but i agree, the e class looks a bit busy. still i think it's damn hot of al lthe mb i think the sl is the best they have done
