Re: Your Top 10 Cars

Since the SLK is a small car, the fenders makes the front of the car look too busy.

Re: Your Top 10 Cars

Kinda ture, but those fenders are rolled out, perhaps the 65 wheels would look nice? They should fit.

Re: Your Top 10 Cars

That's a tough one. I like many cars, but there seriously aren't that many that I like that much that I have to have it over others. I'll give it a shot, in no particular order. Plus, these are definitely not cars I'd really consider buying, where price and economy comes in to play.

1. Audi RS4 - Compact sports sedan for everyday use, fast and comfortable enough. Looks good, goes well, not too large.
2. Porsche 911 Turbo (997) - Iit's not out yet, but that's ok - fast and immensely capable, I'm more than willing to bet.
3. Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG - For when you want to take a touring weekend holiday, with both open topped motoring and the security and silence of a hard roof. Would probably prefer its lighter character over the SL65 or SL600.
4. BMW E60 5er Touring with M-Sport Package - Probably in diesel version, maybe X-drive if possible. I like the looks of the wagon more than the sedan, and the M-Sport Package looks great, better than the M5 IMO. Something to take smaller amounts of cargo in style.
5. VW Golf GTI - A smaller car, for when I go out and maybe have to park on the street. Decent performance, decent looks, and if the quality is fine, then should be great. Economy should be decent as well.
6. Mercedes Benz S600 Sport (W221) - Like that Saks 5th Avenue special edition one, of which I especially like the wheels and the interior. I'm betting the sport package would make it even better. Don't know if I want the armour packages though - I'm not as paranoid as Rnds.. j/k Dark, blue-black or black. Or maybe that reddish-black colour.
7. Audi A8 4.2 quattro - I've always liked this car, though the Merc also sneaked in because I'm beginning to be won over. Classically elegant style from this car, and a nice interior as well. Silver for this one, as typical.
8. TVR Sagaris - A TVR's TVR. For when the 911 Turbo is too sedate. Awesome performance, and suitably rare and unknown for my liking.
9. Lexus IS350 - A more sedate alternative to the RS4. Something sleek and stylish for having a drive. I'm keen to have Japanese alternatives for when the Europeans are all being repaired j/k
10. Land Rover Discovery 3 - I rather like this thing, though I don't like SUVs too much. Nice proportions, which helps to disguise the size - it's pretty huge. But, quality concerns aside, by all accounts it has good offroad ability and reasonable road ability. Comfort as well. I think it's done well as a modern rendition of the Landie, without being retro or stuck in the old ways.

Other pick:
Maybach 57S. I've seen a normal 57 on the road, and it's really sleek. Interior seems to be opulent and comfortable. Otherwise, a Phantom - for when you just have to be noticed. Don't really care that much for either though.
