You should drive them both back to back.
We also have the ML 320 diesel Benz at our other home. I also like the Benz. It reflects the Benz values and is softer and more luxurious than the BMW. The BMW steering, brakes, handling and throttle response is much more direct and "sporting" than on the Benz. That is the real difference. The BMW has a much bigger fun factor.
The Benz has more luxury.
Both are great cars though IMO. The BMW 7 speed transmission is also unbelieveably smooth.
