CL500 Mercedes vs Acura TL

The TL was sliced into 2 pieces. Drivers died instantly.

The driver responsible in the Mercedes lived with minor scratches.

You can not compare the strength of a German car to a Japanese. All German cars are built very solid especially those built for the American market.

As for Prince Diana, the car hit a concrete wall traveling 75mph. she died in a hospital. if she wore a seat belt she would have lived.

have you ever seen a ls400 in an accident or an s-class.

I have here is what happened: i am driving home 1 evening. I stop at a stop sign. All of a sudden i feel a bump. I get out and see an ls400, 3/4 nose smashed. My 99 grand cherokee at the time had a slight crack in the bumper and a bent exhaust pipe.

Mercedes, my uncle is driving home one night, some guy almost hits him on the drivers side, he swerves and hits a parked car, the parked car jumps in the air and lands on the car in front of it. He calls me to quickly order parts as the car is coming back. He arrives at my shop and i see to my amazement, i had to change a headlight lense, bumper cover, and i bent the hood and fender back in place.

I use to work on classic cars, namely mercedes, i have owned every high end benz from 1959 models until todya and an 99' ls400, god forbid an accident, i want to be in a benz, especially the 140W body that Princes Diana was in.

i will admit the ls400 drove great, i actually took that over the 2000 s500 which i did not like. i had it for 3 years. the new s-class is leaps and bound over the competition.
