Oh yes, that was one of the first things I noticed about the Mercedes vehicles. They were like a slot car at speed. They felt so stable and secure as opposed to Detroit iron, which took two hands and white knuckles to drive over 65 mph.
Tom Potter ... I think owning this MB was when I first noticed the way the suspension changed (or maybe my 69 280SE) -- when I got to around 80mph or so - it seems to do it in all the MBs I've owned - at high speed the suspension, like,... changes.... - it kind of 'hunkers down' and the ride gets sooooo smmoooooooooth! It's an amazing feeling actually - it's like being in a totally diffferent car. The pavement strips get virtually silent and the bumps disappear - and the car seems to float down the road. I suspect some others of you have felt the same thing --
