[QUOTE="Vincent Hor, post: 369831, member: 1221"] Ravi, welcome to BMWCM. Do enjoy your stay here. BTW I have owed a couple of Mercedes too. Somehow my prefered drive is still the BMW. The W140 S320 is a nice luxurious car too but I find the E38 looks more attractive. The drive feel is also different. Don't jump into buying the first E38 that you see but try test driving a few to get familar with the good and bad side of this E38. As to your pursue for an E38, I would suggest that you get a "Import Baru" car. Since you are not familar with BMW's I would think a good BMW mechanic would come in handy when checking out a used car. Believe me, between buying a good well care car and paying a slight premium is worth more than getting a cheap lemon car. Acquiring the latter can also mean a huge repair bill in your initial ownership of a BMW. If you owns a S320 now then the maintenance and running cost of an E38 is not any worse. I have friends who owns a W211 E280 and an E38 728i but his prefered drive is still the E38. If in doubt, do get help here. There are many very helpful members in this forum. [/QUOTE]
