You're obviously illiterate. In the automotive press (read the guys who evaluate cars for a living) the E38 7 series has killed the new Sclass several times. In performance, comfort, and quality the 7er is superior. I have attacheda link to a caranddriver article in which the sclass finishes fourth out of five cars, pretty pitiful. Good Luck with chrysler and enjoy your plastic interior, and you are gonna need that SOS button when your car dies after a year. haha, Sincerely, Dogra 98 740iL P.S. cant wait until E65 comes out to even more soundly trounce the Sclass. http://www.caranddriver.com/xp/Caranddriver/comparisontests/1999/November/199911_comparisontest_thedo.xml
