“What’s the nicest MB?”

One that doesn’t have to go in the garage every other week for warranty service.

My favorite in all regards is the C190 (Cosworth). It’s attainable, it’s the proper balance of fun and everything else that makes a Benz a Benz.

Most of them, while being good quality cars, are not fun. Not fun at all.

the C111 is my favorite, although it’s a concept car. But had the same production figures as the Gullwing. The Gullwing is pretty but I didn’t have fun in it. It’s like driving a Monet. You can’t have fun with it. Ever.

The 190SL was a REALLY pretty car and quite nice to drive, the 500K is also rewarding to be in.

But as far as ownership, each of those I mentioned $500k is the smallest price tag. So the 190 Cosworth.
