NO, i don't want a subaru. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
and i don't trust AUDI's

i am looking for a new sedan, because the family is expanding.
BTW i am selling my '03 C230 coupe 6 spd(if anyone is interested pm me, it's loaded and near perfect).

the 3 cars listed above are what think i like so far. i like the E420, because i think it's a steal, and the other 2 cost $10k+ more than the E420 (please consider this when voting, i know i am).

Just looking for opinions. thanks in advance.

The BMW is definitely the sportier choice, but the E420 has a nice fat engine. i know the E420 isn't a responsive vehicle, but that's why i have the 914. This will strictly be a DD and family car. i already know the wife is going to miss the coupe though. she made a comment last night about "whipping it around the parking lot".

By far the best car I owned was a 2000 328Ci. Got it new and put 27K on it in one year and did not have a single problem. Fun, reliable, comfortable and looked good.

not a big fan of the recent designs, but I believe they are better engineered then the new MB's. There was also an article in a recent WSJ that discussed the major quality problems DC is having with thier MB-line is having.
