2009 Mercedes-Benz M-Class ML350 4MATIC

Pros

Looks luxury, more quiet and comfortable than X5

Cons

Price can go up alot if you want a real luxury car(meaning when adding lots of option)

Test drove the X5 and the M class. And i bought the M class at the end. Because the ride is more comfort and quieter when compareing to the X5.Although the X5 looks more stylish and sporty. But the engine for the X5 just make too much noise and you must get the V8 in order to avoid that. Wind noise for the X5 and M class is about the same, but X5 makes more road noise than the M class and it is also more stiffer than the M. Lastly, with about the same price, X5 will have more feature, but M class has the comfort and quieter cabin. So my final decision was the M, because a comfort ride for eeveryday driving is more important and the luxury exterior is just too attractive.
