Nice! I like Benz, especially AMG models. BUT, here is my new Favorite dream car... Bentley Continental GT.

http://www.caranddriver.com/article....rticle_id=7063

It might only be "12 cylinders force-fed by two turbos and two intercoolers good for 552 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque...", compared to the bigger figures from Benz, but I love the car!

The best part of the article is, "We can't comment on reliability except to say that in pursuit of same, a Continental GT was run for 18,500 miles at 175 mph at the Nardo test track in Italy." I would love to have that test driving job!
