Question Guys my paps need some advice on a new car please help

Heres the situation. Dad is getting rid of his 2004 CLK320, wants something bigger (goes golfing a lot) and a bit more power. Wants to stay within the 60-70 K range. I suggested a E500 Benz with premium package and xenon package. I was also thinking about the Jaguar S Type "R" (390 HP Supercharged V8 is very appealing) those start at about 59K. Please give some opinions or other choices. THANX.

P.S. - He really likes luxury and interior gizmos (navi, heated seats, etc.)

This should be in the Other Cars forum.

My dad has a Jag S-Type. The trunk is pretty small, so your dad would probably not like it for his golfing. The MB CLS looks pretty good but the trunk might be a little small too. A used BMW 7-series would have a huge trunk.
Other options are Lexus LS430, Infiniti Q45, VW Phaeton, Cadillac, or save some money and get a 300C SRT-8!

Save some money and get an Infiniti M45- those are going to take the market by storm!
He would love the optional 14 speaker DVD-Audio sound system too.

In high school I had an '85 Pontiac Grand Prix that hurled sulfur when the engine was shut off, which could be done by stepping on the gas too quickly. It had a trunk that could fit about 4 bodies which is about 8 golf bags if you take the drivers out. I'm sure you could get one of those for about $60-70.
