^ i definately agree with Vinno about bias existing especially in a thread like this.

I personally don't like the mercs style of drive for the non AMG models. They are a soft drive(non sports orientated drive) and this is the main reason i love BMW's due to the fact that they are a sportier and more responsive drive. My mother has a 2005 merc CLK320 and i must say i never have the urge to drive the car.
So far from ppl's posts it has been a merc vs BMW thread to the max. If your going to compare then lets compare a 335coupe to a clk350 because thats its actual rival. When ppl were saying the mercs were worse etc etc
1q2w3e4r straight away jumped to talk about AMG's thats the only line of mercs that really saves the merc image from being dull, slow and comfort orientated to being a sporting beast.

What im trying to say is to have a fair argument compare the models:
current e90-320 to a c-class 200k or 335coupe with a merc clk350/500 etc etc.
