cls550-4
I'm 30, and just picked up a 218. It just came down to what 4dr sedans were available in the various price ranges: The S and 7series for me are a bit 'old', new M5 I would have waited for, but no AWD and didn't want a regular 5.. A7 i liked, but liked the CLS better. For those that want a 4dr sedan, but the looks of a sports car, it works out great.

Mainly - Understood. I actually would have preferred the CLS63, but chose not to due to no AWD... Being in Chicago, AWD was a priority.
Ohji - I agree, the S7 could be really interesting, but sometimes timing becomes an issue! I didn't look at any SUVs, as I had just bought my wife a RRS. Before she got the SUV, I was thinking pretty hard about a G550, but we didn't want to own 2 SUVs.

I guess I'm one of the younger ones on the forum with a C219. I'm 24 now, but I was actually 22 when I bought the car. It's sporty and classy at the same time and that was the look I was going for. It's definitely a hit with the younger crowd, but I certainly don't see many younger people driving it...assuming thats mostly due to the cost. It was either the CLS or a BMW 6 Series for me and I'm more than glad that I went with the CLS.
