This is a cool car because it cost somebody $49k new in 99' and we just bought it for $16k with 77k miles on it.I've been wanting one of these for my wife ever since I happened upon a traffic accident involving one of these and a Toyota similar to our Mazda.
Somebody ran a red light and the Benz hit the Toyota broadside. The Toyota was destroyed, its right side pushed in about two feet, it's roof buckled and sticking up about a foot higher than normal.
The Benz had a smashed front licence plate, but its headlights were not broken!
The unfortunate driver of the Toyota was still in the car, the Benz driver standing outside on his phone.
The Benz has six air bags, gets 25mpg and can be driven 500 miles without any pain.

That's why I won't 'downsize'. When everybody else stops driving SUV's and giant gas guzzlers I will too buy myself smaller car. In mean time i feel much more secure in my 'beast.' In the case of accident I want to have a chance.
She has to use premium, right?
Oh yea!
That is why I drive a Mercedes ML320 SUV. Combines the best of both worlds. Rock solid, dependable and safe when unfortunate occurances befall you.
