i actually think that benz's are among the ugliest cars on the road. i have no idea why but i think that they're just ugly cars. i don't hink the STi is great looking either, but i think that's what i'd go with.

Begging to be carjacked or follow- home robbed in that benz. Thats a beautifull car though. Get the STi, its not so pretensious.

besides, if you get the benz, what'll be the point of being a member of i-club?

The E55 would be the practical choice (if you can call it that). But, the STI would be much more fun to drive just about anywhere. If I were a Fat Cat, I'd just buy both.

I'd take the E 55. A better ride and a sleeper. No one will want to race you from the lights everytime u stop. A good price too.

I think I'm going to get a Kleeman Supercharger system with ECU and exhaust. That should be fun. 500HP with similar torque to match.

It sounds like your uncle will be giving you a $10K gift! Take it! It's a great and beautiful Benz....you can sell it later, come out ahead, and then get the latest iteration of the STI or whatever floats your boat!
