Thanks for the warm welcome. Been reading some of the historical threads. Looks like Sam is creating some purdy gems up in Nor-Cal.

Been shopping for another car and have been eyeballing MB's CLS but the AMG's are few and far between. Also eyeballing a 6er coupe and a 550. Of course CPO preferred for "peace of mind". Fill me up with any experience/knowledge/insight you folks have on these models. What to look for ie: SMG, active seats, and/or any gadgets that's a 'must have'.

Get a CLS55 and CLS63. I know there are quite a few of them for sale. If you look hard enough, you can pick up a nice one for alot less than half of what I paid.

Until you go head to head with a CLS55 Just joking.


I personally think the 6sers are alot more comfortable than the CLS, but I think the CLS is super sexy.

Don't get me wrong fellahs - I love the 7er and wouldn't mind it at all if I rolled in to a newer one with CPO bennies. But that little analytical side of me is entertaining and exhausting other options to insure I make a half way educated decision. Kinda sorta maybe.

CLS: never rode or driven one and there's only 3 (CLS 500 CPO's) in the area and no AMG's at the moment. Totally dig the body lines - something that's unique and not a 'cookie cutter' design.

6er: To me, it's a 7 series coupe. Spacious and sporty. And sexy, err Super Sexy as Sam mentioned. And trunk can fit my clubs.

550: To me, baby 7. Just haven't done that much research on the 5's yet.
