I just came home yesterday with a new M35 sport (umgrey gray/stone) and could not be happier. A week after purchasing a certified '03 Mercedes E500, I discovered it had previously been in an accident and painted; which the dealer did not disclose. At the same time, I was really disappointed in many aspects of the E500. At any rate, I got the dealer to take the car back which gave me a second chance to find the right car. Needless to say, I would not look at another MB.
I then went to look at the new Lexus GS and the M. I previously owned a Lexus, so I drove the new GS and was impressed. During my research, I kept reading about the rave reviews on the M, so I went for a look and I drive. I was blown away by the car's beauty. The fit, comfort and technology is amazing. The car's interior is roomier than the Lexus, MB and BMW. If this didn't sell me, I took it for a drive. The driving experience is unbelievable. This car is a blast to drive. It's best to drive it with no radio; the engine sound is incredible, the handling superb and the quickness is a rush. Can't wait to drive it. The 19 inch wheel set tops it off. The car has every feature and technology you could ask for, but I suggest you shut them all down and experience this car in it's basic form. You will not be disappointed. The dealership was very professional and I'd recommend them to anyone. What can I say-- fate gave me a second chance to get into a new M, for about the same cost as a 3 year old E500. Feel like I won the lotto!
