2016 cls63s

i just returned my 2014 e63s, and about to pull the trigger on 2016 cls63s designo diamond white with red interior, night style package.

any major issues with cls63 models, main concern rattles....e63s had quite a few and they would drive me insane.

how is the drive compared to e63s.

please provide your input

I'm surprised you had trouble with your E63. I had a 2014 cls63-s and the thing was amazing, no rattles or fit issues whatsoever. Unfortunately, I had to trade her in for a more family friendly car (2015 E63 wagon). Thus far, my E has been just as flawless as my cls. The cars are so similar from a driving perspective that I sometimes forget I'm in the E.

I think you will find great happiness in the CLS, it's a fantastic car.

It's a more harsh ride than the e63, and more cramped

You could put forward facing car seats back there no problem

my choice of cars is
1. 16' e63 diamond white designo with mystic red interior
2. 16' cls63 diamond white with red interior

initially was going for s550, but i feel it is car when you are older maybe in your 40's

have to make decision within next few days as the dealer is holding both cars for me.

given they are basically the same car, it boils down to looks, which is in the eye of the beholder, however the E63 will have more room for your child in the backseat
