Arrow clk 320 vs. E320 pros and cons

I'm planning on buying the 2003 clk 320 or the 2003 E 320. I don't know too much about either of them at the moment. I went to the dealer yesterday but as you all know they're not really any help. If anyone knows anything about these cars or has experience with them, please post them here. I'd really appreciate it. If I was to get either of these cars, what options would you recommend for Los Angeles driving?

I think this depends on your needs. If you want a sedan, the E320 has more room (+ 4 doors) than the CLK. The CLK has less room and 2 doors - more of a coupe. According to the MB lineup, the CLK320 should be more sporty and faster than the E320, but some people have said that the new E is actually better on the road, with a stiffer suspension etc. I don't know about that as I haven't experienced enough of both to compare that aspect.

But I think most of your choice depends on what your needs are.

Hope it helps.
