    I think that really depends on the model you have and the way you drive.

    Well, if "Ultimate Driving" is a few drives on twisties 10mph above the speed limit, then it might be "Ultimate". :)

    Of course, most people have very limited experience with cars. If you ask a person who has only driven Lada's their whole life, and has no knowledge of any other brand, if the MB C-class is the "Ultimate Luxury Car" they for sure are going to say yes.

    I have a 2002 530i. I test drove everything under the sun before I bought it. I liked the BMW over the Benz and all the higher end cars from Japan. The Benz had alot of flash and very fancy inside but the BMW out handled it by a wide margin. The 525 only has 190hp for 2002 and is very lacking in excitement. Also check with the factory for services done. That body style ran from 98' to 02' and did have a few touchy areas. The dash pod lights tend to burn out and you have to replace the wole unit. Cooling systems and altinators also tend to need attention.
