I would never spend 100K on one car. I'd have a $50K car, a $30k car and a $20k car. One would be fast, one would be a convertible and one would be a daily driver.

CL 600 all the way, but I also like Golds idea of spreading the wealth.

The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers.

First, I'd buy out my CLS from the lease I have and then mod it out - 3.5L, Lvl 10 trans,headers, cam?, exhaust, sways, shocks, final drive gear increase?, subwoofer, CAI,supercharger when/if avail, ... Then I'd buy a Corvette convertible - probably silver with red leather - and add some SLP mods (turbo or sprchrger ?) and gears to get it to 12 flat or better. CLS daily car. Vette for fun.

CL 600 definitely, and if that's over $100K, then a CL 55. I wouldn't spread it like mentioned before. I wouldn't really want any car that's $20k, for that I'll stay happy with my CL-S.

Not too fast? 12.9 sec for the 1/4 mile for the 2001 model. And 4.6 for the 0-60mph. This is Z06 teritory. Anything below 13secs is super-car teritory big time. This is a fast car here.

Hmm...$100k to spend...
Definitely would NOT go with a Ferrari. A friend of mine bought one at the height of the dot-com bubble and his (very wise) advice after selling it for an M5 was "no one with less than $10 million in liquid assests should own a Ferrari". THis was after it spent more time at the dealer than in his garage. I saw it, it was beautiful, but that's the kind of car you own just so you can say you own it.
I'd go with an M5 and a 1966 Corvette Stingray convertible (about $40k) for when the weather's nice. Oh wait, I live in SoCal, it's always nice. :-)
