CL-type s

I just went for a ride in my friends CL type s and all I can say is WOW!! Thats a real smooth car! The Navigation system is nice as well...is it DVD or CD based? What are the performance stats on it? I used to drive eclipses, but Ive now moved on to the "higher" class autos such as Acura, BMW, and Mercedes. The cl is very impressive though. I just oredered my C32 AMG today, and I didnt even get to test drive one! I hope it impresses me as much as that CL did, because that car was real nice. Both sporty, and luxurious. A good buy for all you CL owners

Hmm, I just found out the C32's Nav system is Cd based, I must say a bit disappointing. Are Acura's the only cars that come withe the DVD based systems? It makes me wonder why I just bought a 60K car with old technology! I wonder if Im gonna be changing cd's very often? Im starting to feel short changed, and its only been 24 hours since I ordered the car.

My friend with the Cl-s just took me to the BMW dealer to check out the new M3. I must admitt that Im not very impressed with the high-end power. The Cl feels more civil than the beamer, and the interior of the M lacked a nice layout. The auto stick in my friends cl is just awesome. Are all the autosticks that nice? That was my only choice for the Benz. So far I am happy i went with the Benz over the M3, but every time I ride in the cl, its more and more appealing..

no contest...the benzo is still more pimp and bad-ass than the cl...i'd get one in a heart beat if they wanted my cl-s for a AMG...

I think my choice was the correct one, but that CL-S is just too damn sweet!! Like I said, this is my first luxury car venture, so it is kinda new to me. But I have set my expectations to CL-S standards, which to me is pretty high!
