Speed. Its really fast, and doesn't hide it. You can tool along regularly, then punch it into orbit -- seamlessly.
Least favorite feature:
It doesn't look like it costs $60K+. It sometimes seems like my favorite feature though. Its hard to determine. It is understated.
Advice to buyer:
Do it.
Detailed review:
Wow. Less engineery than a 740 and more performance feel than an S-class, this vehicle is in the hi-performance, hi-class sweet spot.
Also considered:
1999 BMW 740
1999 Mercedes-Benz S420
