Nick.. I did the same thing 1 year ago. When I had the baby girl I sold my boxster. I bought the 996 thinking it could do everything I needed it to do. That was a mistake. A huge one.

Though fun, the 996 is not a family car. It does not do baby seats well. I sold mine, bought a proper 3 row suv.

My dad has the clk500... It really is a great and comfy car. it has tons more room than the 911 and is much more practical. It has a trunk that can do strollers, back seats that do forward and rear facing seats and is a much better (smoother) driver.I was about to buy the clk55 just last week to fill the "toy void" but bought something else instead.

My vote is for the CLK..

EDIT: I want to add that I totaled an eclass last year and you would be amazed at how little damage was done to the car. In an 8 car pileup, the merc took it extremely well.. front and rear had trucks on top. I had 0 damage, and not as much as a sore neck. Heavy=safe when it comes to your child.
