I was really impressed with the V6, it had much better power than expected. Enough so that I'll consider purchasing one.
Both of these cars were neglected and over-priced. Still, I got enough of an impression to know that I like the car.

Hvae yout driven a turbo-diesel yet? You ought to just for comparison's sake. You might like it or you might not; at least you'll know. You will get much better fuel economy over the E320 and will still have plenty of power.
