2000 Silver E55
Need Forum Members' Opinions and Suggestions

I would like to get everyone's suggestions or opinions on the following matter:

As some of you may know I own a 2000 E55 and have had it for about a year and a half. I have been extremely happy with the car, but I am thinking about changing cars. I would like some opinions on the following

My price range is $45K-$55K

Some of the cars that I have been thinking about: (please feel free to give some feedback on each car)

2004 E55... love the power of the Beast, but not to convinced with the exterior styling of car, also heard of some cars having problems with Supercharger

2006 Infiniti M45... ok power, good looks. (not too sure about going from Mercedes to Infiniti??)

2004 Porsche Cayenne Turbo...Great power, nice interior, again not to convinced with exterior look

Thanks,

Felipe

Dude, go S600. You can snag a used one for mid 50's now. You through an ECU on that thing and you are running mid 11's at the track ALL DAY LONG like Treynor did.

Most people are not going to scream out, "old body style" for a few years.

Just my 2cents.

Here is one on Auto Trader

Thanks for the input. I actually forgot to mention that I was also thinking about a 2002-2003 S55. But now that you say that I might be able to pick up an S600 for about $55K that is someone to really think about! Great input!
