Replying to: walounk (Sep 21, 2009 9:57 am) Also, CR recommended the E350 along with the M35, Audi A6 and BMW 535i as good midsized luxury cars. BTW, April issue is the basis for all of their quarterly issues for the most part. In points, the E350 essentially scores second to M35 in its class and above 10 other cars. They rate two M's and two E350's. Should reliability be better than this. You bet. If you think you see lots of complaints on MB Forum, check out the Hyundai Azera and Genesis forums, as well as some others. BTW, CR is not all that accurate anyway due to the demographics of their subscribers, the inaccuracies of their surveying and the small sample for some models. I know, I am a member and for last two years had to ask them to send me the darn survey. Which brings up the question, if MB, BMW, et. al. are so bad and CR is so accurate, why do their members buy the cars? BTW I have looked real hard at the M and test driven three of them and evern with good offers, just don't like the car. Feel squeezed in, noisy and doesn't ride that well.

Replying to: bocatrip (Sep 21, 2009 1:51 pm) Not necessarily. The E class was one of the first to get MB's electronic brake system, which they later had to remove because it was so unreliable. All Mercedes models were terrible from around 2000-2006 or so, E class included. They are supposed to be better now. |

Replying to: draz2 (May 01, 2009 7:32 pm) stuff going on inside the TL. The previous generation TL and the TSX had the nice interiors! For instance, why did Acura take away the nice violet/blue trim on the speedometer/instrument panel? Now, it's just one color, light blue over black?? The previous instrument panel was much better looking. |

I just bought M35S. I absolutely love it. Have looked at and tested ALL models in this class (Audi A6, BMW528, GS350, Jag XF, Acura RL, E350 and even Hyundai Genesis, did not bother with Lincoln or Cadillac). Each of them has their strengths and each of them has their weaknesses. M35 - Much more car for the money! The interior is great and the outside is soo sleek I've only had mine for a few weeks, but I'm absolutely astounded at the level of luxury, technology and comfort in this car. With perhaps one or two exceptions Infiniti has thought of everything with this car. I have the Sport version with the 19" wheels so it rides a little rougher than maybe the other trims, but it's still an incredible ride. Sport pkg seats are perfect, just the right firmness for a balance of support and comfort. The gas mileage it is not bad either (7 speed tran +303 HP) so far 20.4 MPG combined for this level of sophistication, luxury and comfort.
