Equipped with a 493-horsepower, twin-turbocharged
engine, this luxury sedan goes from zero to 60 mph in a mere
4.6 seconds. Inside this top-of-the-line Mercedes, you'll
find hand-fitted Nappa leather seats, a voice-activated phone,
a 12-speaker audio system, a satellite-based DVD navigation
system, a CD player and an MP3 player. The 14-way, adjustable
leather seats circulate air through the seat cushion to draw
off perspiration in warm weather. Want to relax your back
while driving? Air chambers built into the lower seatback
can be programmed to breathe, inflating and deflating fully
twice every minute. Other options include a heated steering
wheel, electronic trunk closer, rear side-window roller blinds
and even mud flaps -- if you want to put those on your Mercedes.
The manufacturer's suggested retail price
for the basic model is $114,297. But when you start adding
the goodies, the price goes up. And up.
