| Re: Kings Battle - S-class, LS, 7-series, A8 and XJ Ok lets not kid ourselves here, the S65 AMG has won this by a land slide, but why shouldnt it have, its what, 180k, plus its been outfitted with one of the most powerful engnies in production. So of course the S65 is the real winner whether you voted it or not, not because it blows away its competition, but more becuase it has none. So back to the real world, (where night vision and traffic flow control dont come standard ), which car out of the S8, 760, LS, or XJ is the best luxury sedan. Ok, if you said that the LS or XJ is better than the 7, you should seriously rethink that. That is so rediculously stupid. The FL 7 is not only the best looking car, its more comfortable and a better driving car than the Hokey LS or pretentious XJ could ever hope to be. Ok so the Brit and the Jap are pretty lame IMO. good poll HOH |

Out of the four cars, the A8 is the best looking - it's also considerably better looking than the S-class - especially the S8. You are correct when you said the S class is the best car though. | |

Haha, beleive it or not, I was holding back. I had a different choice of words then "you should rethink that", but I knew I would get another lecture if I let my fingers get carried away without censorship..... ![]() | |

| Re: Kings Battle - S-class, LS, 7-series, A8 and XJ I guess no one wants to credit Lexus for coming up with a better design than the previous model. Though some design elements are a 7-Series ripoff I have to credit Lexus for steering clear of the love it or hate it "flame surface" fashion design elements that the Germans have adopted. The Lexus might be boring to some but it`s design is neutral and formal (compared to the German) which might appeal to a wider clientele. The interior I feel is outdated and some elements could fit in a lower class Toyota model, Lexus needs work in this area But overall the design is not bad. ![]() ![]() Last edited by GTA8.5; 01-27-2006 at 12:43 PM.. |

Lol...Oh yes, it is me. I'm still a Mercedes Fan through and through. I'm just learning to appreciate what other manufactures offer. And yes, Infiniti still comes in second for me as far as brands go. | |
