though, I haven't ever really been into audi's they just don't do it for me aesthetically or performance wise.

edit: I'd drive a E39 M5 in a heartbeat, never an audi and obviously a porsche. IMO these cars are great. They have their flaws just like any manufacture, difference is you get the keys to a benz, not a yota, neesan, subie, or honda....
Cheers to that comment

Mercedes E 200 CDI Elegance
I have been driving Mercedes for the last 15 years, my first one was a used W124, E 200 MY 1995. Next one was a used W210 E240 MY 2000. After that I bought a new W203 C 180 Kompressor. And then a new W204 C 200 CDI MY 2008.

Now i have an E 200 CDI MY 2010, I bought it new for 5 years ago and I love the car and I love Mercedes-Benz, they make the best cars in the World, that is my opinion!
In a Mercedes you always have the "welcome home" feeling, Mercedes stands for tradition and Automobile history but also for high technology.

BMW and Audi make good cars to, but for me is only Mercedes an option.
All three BMW/Audi/MB are very good cars, but really not that special, I mean every second car is a BMW/Audi or Mercedes here where I live..
And all the rest are VW

Mercedes C250 Coupe
....unsure at this point. Got me a CPO C250 last year. Beautiful car: paint, trim, interior. Easy to drive. The turbocharged four with an automatic ain't my 4-speed 350/350 'Vette......but the little coupe is light years ahead in style and deportment..................

I think the hassel and expense is worth it for the power and comfort my car gives. If you can't take the heat got outta the kitchen.
