I just ordered a GLK 350. While not my favourite MB, it was the most practical for my daily commuter. I had an M-Class several years ago and it was terrible. I really like the lines on the CLS and the new C-Class, especially the AMG models. I am glad they used similar lines on the body of the new GLK350

A great car from the days, when there used to be a huge gap between the S and the 7 series.
Some consider the looks of the car to be too "brutal" - I love it.

these were the last mercedes that, to me, really looked like german cars.

Another vote for the 300SL. The 540K is a museum piece at this point - too rare and valuable to use. Shortlisted: The "Pagoda", the other big 60s/70s convertibles, the G-wagen and the Unimog. And the 300 Adenauer:

I dig those old '70s sedans, along with the 280 SL Convertible back when MB were built like tanks.

I'm very fond of the 70's MB's, too. I get giddy when I see them on the highway.

I like the GLK. It would look much better/sportier with slightly bigger wheels and wider tires.

Yes I agree it would have been better with 21's on it. I did order the optional 20's, which are the ones shown in the photo, the 19's don't look very good. They probably should have offered 21's on it since the wheelwells are quite large.

Please post a pic and a review after you get it.
