Too many choices!
Lexus? Too common. BMW? Too sporty for my taste. Now, Mercedes-Benz? Just perfect.
I am having a little bit of a problem. I am in the market of a new(er) "Benz" and I cant chose. I want to spend between $30,000-$40,000. Also, the car must be a 2005 and above. I prefer something like the CLK, actually, been having my eye on one, but I found a 2004 S430 and a 2003 G500 that looks like an awfully good deal. Plus, you dont gee so many "G-Wagens" around, do you?
The SL and CLS are amazing cars, but I think I will wait for those, maybe when I am a little older and familiar with Mercedes. I saw a 2004 CL500 for sale, though, with low miles, but again, I am looking for a V6 with not too much power and not that bad gas mileage. The C-Class and E-Class are too common though, and the SLK is too small. I want something big, but not "boat" sized. That is why the CLK320 looks good to me, low miles, not too sporty, AND only about $33,000.
Let me know what you guys think about this, and any suggestions would be great. Wonderful, the pressures of life, arent they great?

If the CLK feels right to you, you should ask in the CLK forum about its weaknesses (since you probably already know its strengths) and what to watch out for re: reliability.
Are the cars you are looking at under warranty/CPO?
