Looking to get a 05 S430

Well i flipped over my CLK last week (ouch) So i think I want to get into a S Class. I saw a 05 S430 that I want to get. Looks pretty sweet and a lot bigger than my CLK. So i figured I would come here and ask all you S-Class drivers..... Anyone here have the 05 S430? and if so how do you like it? Another thought might be to go wit ha 4-Matic. I don't know maybe after being in a car that flipped kinda scared me a little and now I'm looking at larger cars.


thoughts?


thanks in advance.

it was raining and a car was cutting over to my lane about to hit me. I turned real quick, hit a curb then a pole, the car flipped on its side. Done deal.

I have a 05 S430, the car is amazing in terms of comfortability but lacks power for a performance enthusiast!

Go for it if you want a nice DD!
