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

I like the performance of the Infiniti but the interior looks like it was pulled from a video game station, no class at all! The body design ( though not bad at the mement) will age rather quickly down the line..

Japanese cars, as well as American cars designs age really fast imo..

Why not? It will be here by the fall with little changes except for the interior.

Notice thats why I said "wait for the Jag".

Yeah that is what people said about the Audi Nuvolari and various other concept cars. IMO it really doesn't make sense to have a concept here since we know the roofline and interior are going to change a good deal from concept to production. I'll wait for the finished product.

E-class all the way!

P.S. The e-class is now winning by one vote

I would've voted for the Sexy ass Jaguar but the fact is that we don't know if the car will even look like that or what is going to be changed. Plus, Jaguar still is a ford company so I'm worried about shoddy reliability.

I voted for the E. As much as I love the 5er/M5 the E gets my vote. When I'm looking for a mid-size family sedan I want the car to be agressive but not to a point where I have to be fully alert to drive the damn thing. The S6 is an amazing car but I don't think it offers what the E can.

btw...saw a blue M5 yesterday parked in front of a grocery store...LOL

I'm still trying to decided between the E, M45 and the Sexy Beast. Do I help Benz win or should I go with my heart and go with sexy beast.

On the other hand the Lexus GS is very amazing. I drove one the other day and was VERY impressed.

Cadillac and the A6 really don't impress me. And the 5 series headlights and rear light I have hated from the very beginning, but the interior is nice.

Doesn't look too different shape wise then the concept.
