Kings Battle - S-class, LS, 7-series, A8 and XJ - Page 3

Well HOH, it's tough for me to say this, but the looks, performance, equipment of the S65 AMG is unmatched at this moment imo.

It LAUGHS at the S8, and has no competition from BMW.

*laughs is not meant in a negative way, it's just that much more 'present'

If I could get any models from each of the brands, than this is my decision.
1) S65 AMG: Ultimate Limo? Probably... I chose this because the performance is unmatched and the AMG kit saves the S class. Without it, it would probably be 3rd

2)760 Li: IMO, it's the best looking. It's got it's own charm... something different from the list that we have here. And the engine is not exactly a little toaster

3)S8: Great looking car... somewhere in between the 7er and S class in terms of performance. Best interior... it barely loses to 7er because I think that the outside design is more important than the inside design

4) Xj and LS: That Jag is too old looking... no emotion whatsoever. How reliable is it? LS even though is new already looks old if you know what I mean. There's just no highlight in terms of the design of the car.

German cars win by a landslide.

S-Klasse all the way!

Wow the LS has an 8 speed automatic? I didn't know about that. It doesn't surprise me that they say they've "one-upped" the Germans since they've advertised like this in the past (like with ridiculous RX commercials).
