Majority of E-class drivers are either retired people, or driving a taxi. Not my thing.
Well...., in that case, I came out of retirement(ex E-Class) a few months ago and feel like an invigorated young stud.

I wouldn't go back to MB either. My grandpa's theory towards girls apply to cars too. Exterior looks are deceiving, it's what within that counts....... A MB will never handle like a BMW.

Benzs are the sh*t, especially the AMG models. Yes, the E63 will be something.

Im quite liking the look of that. Ever since the new S Class came out Ive been drawn in, but I cant seem to get past all that "blue rinse brigade" shiny stuff in the cockpit!

Benz's always feel like they're a car aimed at the retired!

I like the car but it really resembles a new maxima. Not trying to make fun of the car, just my honest opinion.

Not sure what you mean by "blue rinse brigade" stuff but if your talking about the arm rest and dash looking like the 7series then I agree.

But S-Class is still a nice car even though they did steal BMW's stuff and improved on it
