'03 CL600
Moving from '95 S600 Coupe to '03 CL600

Just purchased an '03 CL600 to replace my '95 S600 Coupe. The CL600 will arrive on Monday.

I've loved the S600 and while driving it today started to feel seller's remorse (actually not sold yet) that the CL600 will not substantially improve my driving experience over the S600. The S600 is one terrific highway cruiser.

Anyone out there move from an S600 to a CL600? Are you happy you made the move? Any regrets?

My emotional well being is at stake here, so please be kind (and honest).

Seller's remorse is not unusual for me. When I replaced my BMW 540I with my M5 I felt horrible.

Thanks for any comments.

Bill

Been in many S's, and own an '01 CL 600. I can't even imagine your having one bit of regret or remorse (except if you're working with baby seats in the back, which I suspect you're not). And I know that the '03s are even better than my cherished '01.

Whatever there's gas in...
I made a similar change..I went from my '95 Lorinser S600 to my '03 S55..To tell the truth, I don't miss my W140 at all..I miss the bodystyle I do admit I like it alot better than the W220 but the features in the 220's features blew me away and I fell in love. I know these are different cars but they are similar experiences and I just wanted to share mine.
