Mercedes or BMW choice...... - 05-03-2006, 04:31 PM

I know these are two completely different cars, but would you take a 750Li or a G55 AMG SUV?

Anyone have experience with both??

Ok, if it was me i would definitely choose the bimmer for two main reasons.
1) great and unmatched design and look, not like the boxy intrerior of the G55
2) all the well known advantages, mainly as far as driving is conserned, that every sedan has over an SUV

750Li for me ...I quite like the car. Now if you had had the S550 in the poll my vote would have been different.

It would depend on what other cars would go with that choice I suppose. If I had to have just one car, I would take the 750iL for its driving characteristics and comfort.

However, if I had another daily driver, the G55 AMG definitely. Its exclusive, classic, and so cool imho. But thats just me.

I'd say the G55, is has got to be one of the coolest cars, especially in black!

I love the 750Li as well, it's a hrad choice because they are so different!

But I'd go for the G55!

G55 is a SUV and 7 series a sedan so maybe you should decide what kind of car you want first.
From those two i would take the 750 cause G class is very very old and dated IMO. Of course some might say that G is a classic and they will be correct.
