Definitely the 5 series for me..it was revolutionary when it came out, still looks revolutionary..easily a class apart from the competition..further with the angel eyes....vow !!!

Oh Lord...5 series, 5 series, 5 series. Why am I not surprised? All those other good choices.

I'm thinking at least 5 people would have went for Sexy Beast...



I swear if this thing hits production with very minor changes from the concept (which they announced it would be) this thing will be a German Killer and I will be one of the first in line to purchase it.




Sexy Beast........

Re: *Mid-Size Sedan BATTLE* (E-class, A6, 5 series...)!

I'm torn between the E and A6. I like the E63 and E550 as well as the S6 and the A6 4.2 S-Line. Tough choice, but give me an E63 AMG first and a S6 second.

Of the rest, too hard to decide at this time. I can tell you though that the STS and RL are the last cars I would want. The 5-Series, M45, and GS430 are all in the middle.

Not realistic to put a Jaguar concept here since it isn't the final car nor can we go drive it now.

Wow that Jag concept is really nice lookin. Now if only they could keep the Ford quality out of it and give it some good driving characteristics, this thing would be a real contender.

Isn't your car CDI?

Regardless, you'd still blow my exhaust...
