Always had a c63 or m5 in the back of my mind come change time, always seems like a good idea till I do a bit more homework, similar thoughts on a gtr, own it for a year or so and move on.
think the Mercs look and sound great, don’t think I’d want one out of warranty. If your looking at a nearly new, weekend car then scratch that itch. You also mentioned the lc500. Between the two for me the lc wins hands down. Epic looks and sound with the reliability you’ve become used too 😎
