As the owner of a 215 CL, go with the Bentley. Without question...

My pick is the new CL. Far prettier and the functionality of the new Benzes is mind blowing. I also had two previous CL's .

Well to give you a girl's perspective, I really like the CL, but yah a Bentley is a Bentley like you said. I would love to be the passenger in either, but whenever I see a Bently on the road, everyone gives you the right away, and gives you definite space on the highway.
I'm not sure what to base your decision off of, so I'll go with the public view of both cars.....
There are more people driving a Mercedes than a Bentley so I guess if you want to stand out, then go for the Bentley, even though we know what a nice Mercedes it is, the public will just think it's another Mercedes or a CL, most people don't understand all the specs. And there aren't too many other Bentley's ya know? So there is a slight difference.
Oh did you test drive either one of them?

For the WOW factor, I'd choose the Bentley, but I don't think I could live with it sharing so many parts with the Phaeton.

For sure, a Bentley is not just a Bentley anymore. It's an overpriced VW. When you actually find out how many parts are straight from the VW parts bin you'll see how badly you are being ripped off. Anyways - its not pretty in the slightest, just plain almost like a caricature of a car to be honest.
