Benz performance is different from BMW performance; not worse, but just marketed for a different audience. You know, women.

They aren't all that keen on cars...
One post is comparing a 740 to the E Class....it should be to the S.
Another one (or two) state that Mercedes has the fastest SUV...that would be Lamborghini.

I think the whole debate is been overshadowed by a couple of big egos on that forum.
Anyway, I also agree that BMs are better performers but speed isn't everything. I think those that favour BMs are basing their argument on speed alone.
IMHO I don't think the performance differential between BMW and Merc is large enough to rate the BMW as a <i>far better</i> performer (but obviously that statement is coming from a MB owner).
At least everyone agrees on one thing: The SL55 AMG is a kickA$$ car in a league of its own!
