While taking a moment to venture through our inbox, a task we often manage to overlook, we stumbled upon an email from an astute reader by the name of Shiv directing us to a Mercedes CL600 review we unwittingly missed along the way.

The review, which was conducted by the British automotive publication Autocar, offers readers the first glimpse of what they can expect from Mercedes' newest luxury coupe, describing the new CL as "supremely comfortable, fast and able – and all in a subtle kind of way."  Ultimately, however, the reviewer questioned whether or not the CL600 is worth the price of admission, noting that the V12 variant is "only for those who feel compelled to tick only the highest specification on the list." 

Only for those who feel compelled to tick only the highest specifications on the list?

You mean there's people that don't tick every box?

When buying the new Merc, there's only way to do it. Tick, tick, tick until you can tick no more.  Remember ladies and gentlemen, they're not options... they're measures of self-indulgence. 

You deserve it.

So what if you have to dip into your kids' college funds? Universities have been around for hundreds of years - they're not going anywhere.  Your ass deserves those upgraded dynamic multicontour seats equipped with active ventilation and massage functions.

Trust me.

Thanks for the tip Shiv.
