LOL, no surprises, she had to test drive them. She loves cars as much as I do, except I tend to be a bit more inclined to MB than she is nowadays. She really likes the old MB designs.
Her decision was in favor of BMW this time around (and with just about all the options included).. She finds the late generation MBs to be not too 'German' or 'european looking'.... oh well.... her opinion... I have to add, I love them all!! so we are fine here!
