K, so you guys know my lovely 086 arrives this coming Wed Wife is also due for something new and trying to decide between an 09 classic Mercedes G-Class and a Mercedes 09 AMG ML63.
Our needs are to have a trunk big enough to hold my 125lb dog, good in the snow and be a smooth ride for 4 hr weekend trips to Vermont.
I lean toward the G-Class in that I love the look of the thing, but I'm being told the pitch and sway on turns and the like are not great and it might not be the best car for long hauls. Wife falls in love with anything AMG, so she's hellbent on the ML63, but my concern is that with so much torque, how will it do in the snow.
On my end I need a daily driver and considering a used "beater" Audi A4 or the Audi Avant...crazy month for car buying!
Any thoughts from my Spyker friends?
p.s. I'm amazed at how much of a rebate they're giving on the 09 MB's to make way for the 10's
