Not too bad of a review, except that the engine is a little underpowered. What do you want for a V6 when they just tested the 388hp S500. Even though the power is similar to the old S430, the Torque rating was something around 292 lb/ft vs 258, and thats what gets that mass hustling.
I do agree with their conclusion, the 320CDI is probably the best V6 model for them hehehe

I sort of concur with the whole rear door being "bland." Maybe not so much bland as spartan and wide open, it balances out the cluster of instruments, the shiny door handle and the wood running along the top.
It might look better with a swoosh of metal underneath the wood and enveloping the cluster of buttons...Im thinking like the SL doors...
