meshmesh, its somewhat an old mans car... most young guys can't tell a Merc apart but something like a R34 GTR is likely the most sought after item for anyone with a turbo/import.
Having driven most of the top end gear from Mercedes including CL500, CL55 and CL600, I'd have to say I absolutely love these things; would have to stretch to a 55 or a 600 even if I was serious about one, but I'm sure the 500 would be a suitable enough cruiser
