Elegance or Advangarde

[Guest j888]

Hi all bros,

Need some advise,

I'm shopping for a second hand E211. Should i get a Elegance or Advangarde model?

I understand that beside cosmatic difference, main diff is the suspension which Elegance is softer and Advangarde is harder. But i'm concerned about harder suspension, although it gives better handling, is it going to affect ride comfort? I'm getting old, can't take those bumpy rides that i used to have when i purposely change to harder spring in my previous Jap car.

Thank you in advance for your comments

i think beside the cosmetics & suspension differences, there is still some others.

anyway taken from unker post.

Look for 1 preferably with Command APS over Audio 20, reverse camera or reverse sensors.

Wanna poison U a little further....hehehehe!

Stretch only a few $K more & get yourself an Advantgarde over the Elegant model

Elegance is softer and Advangarde is harder.....

Think the main diff is the 18" rim in the Advangarde.... which gives a sporty feel and harder ride.

Elegance is having 16" rim, which has more rubber .... so its softer on the ride.

As for the 15mm lower..... parking side by side..... ehh....no diff leh.

was comparing it with s80 t6..... one word to describe it - power, when unleash her 285bhp :devil2:

merc definitely has an edge in the cabin, in terms of aesthetics and also the overtrade of 18k.....

:offtopic: need help on resale value on the t6, say a yr old in current market.... anyone?????
