wow. very nice vid. you can see how the MB's chassis is not handling so much power very well. The silver one is so weak it crumbles around the circuit like a drunken sailor
360k EUR for MB ????
there are other REAL ultimate cars with this price tag

The B5 is a real sleeper, looks like a 520 almost. It?s really fast and comfortable, but the steering is no good and the handling is only ok, not more.
I drove a B5 in Germany and had my M5 to compare with - it was very close in acceleration at all speeds.
But the tight feeling ( steering, brakes, handling etc. ) you have in the M5 is something completely different.
M5 for me
MB?s - no thanks :thumbsdown:

agreed.. i would get an m5 (2nd hand), a b5 , and e55 (2nd hand), and a 535d ... and superchip them,
and install new pulleys on the e55, and a kleemann lsd, and a new suspension, and new brakes... and get
m6 style alloys for the m5, and tint them all... and get the hammann wheels for the 535d , and get the brabus front lip for the e55 ... and have 35000euro left for servicing

If you like a car focused on comfort AND power, buy the B5. It?s one of the best there is. Much better than a AMG IMO

Sorry! that was some other thread... as a family car, which is what i use the 5er for, yes comfort + power is what i like/want.
only reason a B5 is not in my garage is coz wife wants a new house!
