Mercedes Benz ML550 2013
Ml550 2013

hello, I have a question... I have a Porsche Cayenne 2012, but I want to trade to a ml550... I don't know how is the ride, quality (because i read ml is build in usa and not in germany). the brakes are good? i live in gainesville but my local dealer don't has anyone in stock to drive...

I like the good handling of my car, but i have the cayenne v6 and i don't like the quality of the engine

I know the cayenne has more agility than the ml, but i don't care a lot the sport handling but neither a handling like a minivan...

I saw the different option of the ml and i think the price is good for everything it has... if you compare the same options on a cayenne s the difference is a $10000... in my opinion the difference is a lot of money

I have a 2013 ML350 and having owned other porsches I can probably say it would not handle like your Cayenne. However, with the Airmatic Air Suspension Package and the Active Curve option you might get close. But if you are looking for a great ride then the ML would be your choice. With the two options mentioned you could choose when you wanted smooth and when you wanted sporty.
