Like every forum comparison, different people favor one or the other. I used to post a lot there, but prefer the dialogue (questions, answers, topics) at mbworld.

That, and the site performance at BW is . . . . . . . . ah . . . . . . . I'll simply say, "when one can't be kind, being vague is a worthwhile alternative". Of course, one could pay the fee to become a premium member at BW. Rather than paying a fee so I don't have to see a zillion ads, which slow down the site, on a forum where the exchange really isn't that intriguing, I'll just change the channel.

AND THEN there's the fact that there is no AMG CLK section. I don't own a CLK55/63, but as Jackie Chiles of Seinfeld used to say I AM OUTRAGED. And as long as I'm stealing lines from the maestro, "This a clear violation of your rights as a consumer. It's an infringement on your constitutional rights. It's outrageous, egregious, preposterous".

Notice how the tone slowly ramped up? How the resonance grew from a simple "preference" to a "human rights campaign"? How I threw in both comedy AND a spokesperson? You can't get that on the bee dubya. BW stands for black and white. This is high def baby!

Now you'll have to excuse me, the nurse says it's time to take my meds.

It's simply a matter of personal preference. I happen to come here a lot and check BW pretty rarely. I don't have a good reason, this is just where I ended up.

There are a few Canadians over in the C36/43 section every once and a while as well as a few Europeans, but by and far, I think Americans make up a majority of the board. Welcome and hopefully you like it.

OK... my 2 Cents (US$)

I don't really go to the other site much. It's either here, or to the AMG Private Lounge.

However, this site is much more interesting and useful to me than the others, IMHO.
