he's upgrading from c200...if u've driven those, the M54 2.2 is a huge upside:top:

Hi Lionel_Koh, thanks for the quick response, actually sorting the financing at the moment, already paid some downpayment. I'm not that much of a power or speed buff, more of cruiser kind of person (make me feel old saying this!). Anyway tested the car and quite happy with it, as shaifulo said, huge improvement from my old c200. Mind you, I had very little problem maintaining that C200, i dare say the bills would be comparable to japanese cars i've had before, after spending a one time repair right after pruchase - thereafter pretty nominal
