A world class automobile. A thrill to drive. It handles on par with most high performance sports cars but with the legendary S class comfort. Truely a shame that there is no place I can really open her up! I do wish that the final drive was a little taller for enhanced fuel economy!

This is a first class car. It is quick off the line and even quicker when you accelerate from 70 up. The transition of power is real smooth and with the sport package wheels it's flashy with a minimum of chrome. I love the car and all my friends envy me now. Best car I've ever had. Buy one if you can afford it. It's slick!

I did plenty of do diligence before making my decision. I knew going into it that this was not going to be an inexpensive car to own. However that being said I have never owned such a wonderful piece of machinery in my entire life. Every day I am excited to start the engine and drive. Nothing has ever compared to this car. The acceleration is perfect and he handling superb and the ride is perfection. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone that wants the perfect machine. Be prepared to take care of some pricey issues if the any maintenance has been deferred. I spent about $8000 upon purchasing it to bring it back to factory specs. But it was well worth it. One thing to be sure of is to make sure you change the ABC fluid every 30k miles. As soon as it begins to change color it needs to be changed. I wish all the very best with their purchases and many happy miles driven.
