Talking Advice please!

Hello all!

This my first time posting although I am always perusing through the forms everyday. I have some opportunities to purchase either a :

CLS55
CL55
SL55

I know that the CL and SL are much more expensive than the CLS but something about that coupe is just sexy. The CL63 has been rumored on this site to come out in June so the CLS55's will probably be only a 1 year model? That would make me NOT purchase a used CLS55 as I would go straight to the CLS63. My questions are:

Which would you choose and why? I can get great deals on either of the three but the CLS really sticks out simply because I like the way that it looks. I am not sure when the CL and Sl new models will come out but if I should wait please let me know.

I have heard that the CL63's will be going for $115-$135? What are you guys getting in terms of quotes for car's or what have you paid with what options? PLease PM me or email me as I would love to hear where and how much you paid! It will help me out a great deal. Thanks.

LL

I'd go with the CLS or SL, I cant stand driving the CL's. They dont feel as solid as the SL or CLS.

IMHO opinion the CLS is the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Beats anything, including the 7, that Bangle's done over at BMW. I would go with the CL or the SL, but the Sl over the CL.
