| My issue should be in the mail today....I already know how this one came out. BMW is newer and faster and just as comfortable interior wise so I'm sure it won. And it will likely be cheaper if the S550 was loaded. Still though can't wait to read this one. M

| Predictable outcome, this BMW 7 really does bring it this time around. I bet the interior scored major points. Time for S-Class facelift to restore order. M

I quote: "The May 2009 Issue of CarandDriver has a comparision test between the 2009 750Li and the 2009 Mercedes-Benz S500 both with SportPackage and fully loaded models. 2nd Place S500. 1st place 750Li. they both tied in ride quality with a 10. Handling Bmw got a 6 and the Merc got a 5. Steering BMW got a 4. Merc 3."

| The Bimmer wins because there´s no a Jaguar on the comparo, if it was, no matter how good the F01 is, the Jaguar would win. |
