I just like this thread. It just made me LOL 
Style is subjective . Some like bmw or mbz style.
I might like Mbz interior more but nav screen is too low. I like e60 ergonomy
Mbz manual shift in auto shift side way

IMO, I started with a BMW awhile back, love the handling, steering. Went from 3 series, X5 and now a E60 and I still love. Last year purchased a Mercedes CLK320. It didnt have sports suspension but yet it was a smooth ride. I upgraded everything from shocks, springs, sway bars just to get the feel of sports suspension. The car was fun to drive, but yet it was missing the "ultimate driving machine." I still have the Mercedes and its FOR SALE.
