4.7 Turbo reliability VS M113 and others
Hey Guys, I've owned half a dozen benz over the years and still own a W220 S500 AMG and a W211 E55 AMG with the M113 engine. I'm considering replacing my S500 with something more modern and was looking at a 2012 CLS550... I was wondering how the 4.7 Turbo engines compare to my bulletproof M113 expenrience so fart.
I'm also looking at a S550 from 2009-2011 which is non turbo if I recall...
Let me know what you guys think.

Like the m157, the 278 is higher maintenance and more problematic than the 113 for sure ... but can really wake up with a nice tune and is fun to drive ... it won't be "bulletproof" ever
