Yeah, don't do it. I had an older five series that was an absolute money
pit. I have heard nothing but horror stories about the newer Bimmers, esp.
the 7 series. Resale is absolute crap on them for a reason. When I first
drove my 123 coupe, the behind the wheel similarities were scary. However,
the Benz is a MUCH better car. If you have to have an up-scale luxury ride,
buy a MB W140.
